He’s obsessed with bowling now. I think this only made it worse. James even had his own cheering section! He can’t wait to go back.
I was “getting ready to go” so that we could up and leave when the baby awoke. I couldn’t hear anything. I mean, it was silent. This house is never silent. Silence is dangerous. I remembered in my sewing room that there are unseen dangers so I snuck out of the [...]
Lowell at 2 years old – 34 inches tall (we guessed, so he could be a little taller than 34 inches), 25.8 pounds and a student nurse did the measurements and didn’t write down the percentiles, but the doctor said them … 80th for one of those and 70th for the [...]
James, “Happy Birthday to Low-well, happy birthday to Low-wellll, happy Birthday to Low-well! Happy Birthday to … SPAGHETTI!”
Daddy, “James, why did you say spaghetti?”

click on it. i dare you. Those. Eyes.
He must be going through a growth spurt because he’s stopped pooping and started sleeping. I didn’t change a single messy diaper today (neither did David) and he spent nearly 18 or 19 hours of today sound asleep, most of them in his [...]
My birthday is coming up soon, too. It is! Of course, it’s nearly a month after Lowell’s but I thought I’d get this out there since my “wishlist” is slightly more complicated and involved than Lowell’s. It could even be Birthday/Mother’s Day, for that matter. Most of all, I would like…

…so I started a wishlist for gift ideas. I decided to set it up and update it after each boy’s birthday since they will likely all play with the toys and the actual wishlist will stay pretty much the same, so the web address for this wishlist will stay the same. I’d tried having [...]
