Audrey is approaching 2 months. She is looking around and following what her crazy sisters are doing. She does a good job of holding her head up and is smiling. She may be reaching and grabbing for toys by now if someone would give her some. I look back at the time I used to [...]

Usually from 2:00- 3:00 Audrey and I get to hang out together in peace. Alyssa is not home yet, Megan is napping and we can just pretend she is the only child. Except this only child must be making a huge mess of my house. She has her standard load of laundry each day, but [...]
We are officially the parents of three kids. I guess technically we have been for the last month, but not until you are on your own do you believe it. Trying to tote 2 young kids, making sure the third is not getting run over by cars in the parking lot, figuring out how to [...]
Ethan’s mom, Oma, came to meet Audrey this week. She was able to stay through Saturday and help me with cooking, cleaning and entertaining which ever kid I needed her to entertain at that moment.

I guess the most exciting thing, at least for Audrey, is that she got her paci this week. I like to hold off as long as possible, mainly because until they can keep it in their mouth, the paci is quite annoying for mommy. I have discovered that she really likes to suck on it [...]
Bath Time: Audrey Megan Maybe all kids scream like this in their first bath, but these two look suspiciously similar. (Thanks for the reminder Ali.) The Swing: It goes a little slower with each kid, and makes this crank noise when it starts up, but 7 years and 4 girls later I guess it still [...]
We brought Audrey home Tuesday night. It was not the coming home that you plan. We had wanted the girls to be with us and drive home as a family, but they said we could go after 24 hours and that ended up being about 8:45pm. Ethan and I both dislike the comforts of the [...]

Ethan and I just enjoyed our last meal for awhile.. well, mine anyway. As I recall, he doesn’t have a problem eating while I am in labor. Our nurse tonight has been great. She has a daughter a few days older than Megan and is due with her second daughter next week. She has been [...]

We recently moved to Round Rock, TX. We have 3 beautiful girls, and a son in heaven. This is for those who choose to walk life next to us.
