So Tess, was born October 10th. She's really been such a sweet little baby. The children are gaga for her. She will probably be our last baby so it was all very bittersweet. She was born with a "port wine stain" (those 2 lines on her forehead). They don't seem to be worried about it…

Hey there. I was meaning to blog at least two weeks ago but then a little something happened. A little something that didn't start my 2014 off as I had hoped. Long story short, friends had some extra tickets to this toboggan thing that was set up in Times Square as part of "Superbowl Boulevard".…

I suppose the only place to start is where we left off 6 months ago.  I'm hoping I can remember all the details (honestly, there is a lot I'd just like to forget). The drive went well, we made it in a few days. I dropped Kate off at my sisters in Rochester along with my…

Hi there! It's summertime, so you know how that goes. Chris moved to New York City about a month ago while I'm hanging out with the children in Utah. 30+ weeks pregnant. Is that execuse enough to have neglected this here blog?  It is, it totally is. I don't even know if anyone reads this thing…

The day before we packed up and moved everything we owned into a storage unit, we filmed the first few episodes of our Kickstarter Project. I had packed up nearly everything in the house except for the kitchen (looks pretty bare, right?) It felt so great to finally get some of these episodes on film.…

Well, we officially packed up our place in MA and threw everything into a storage unit. For now, we are staying with family while we look for a new place to live, but more on that later 🙂  I wanted to pop in to tell you about a class I am co-teaching with my Mom…

I sat on the front steps yesterday watching Charlie hopping from rock to rock thinking about my/our lives. Chris was mowing the lawn and I was thinking about how much I really love the smell of fresh cut grass. It's a bummer to be moving now that the weather is getting so gorgeous. This past…

I took the children to the Boston temple last Saturday to take pictures of Henry for some baptismal announcements/invitations. This turning 8 is serious business and soon he'll be getting baptized! We were laying in bed tonight looking back at pictures of his 1st birthday.  I can't believe we now have an 8 year old!  Someone…

we drove by a little waterfall and I thought it'd be the perfect place for the children to dip their feet on what I think has been the warmest day of the year (hallelujah!) So we went and picked Henry up at the bus stop and drove straight there. Henry, my little germaphobe, had no…

Last night she said, "Lets hurry and go to bed so my birthday will come quickly!" She woke up bright and early and asked if she could go down and look at her presents. I told her she could and I heard her say "Oh my gosh! Wow!!" She ran back to me and asked…
