Talon has had an amazing amount of hair since he was born. It’s usually the first thing someone will comment on when seeing him. And I love his hair. It is this straight, thick, dark blond mop. When he wakes up in the morning or from a nap, it’s usually all over the place . [...]

Despite my inactivity here on this site, we’ve actually been doing quite a bit. Unfortunately, with everything else that has been going on with moving and such, that quite a bit didn’t make it on here. So, time to take our life out from the shadows of moving and share it with you. Somewhere amongst the [...]

After the first months of really sucking in the sleep department of life (as in he did not like to sleep, ever), Talon is turning out to be my best sleeper yet! Abbi was a good sleeper from the get-go, but pretty much had to be rocked to sleep. Putting her to bed while she [...]

It’s always an odd feeling traveling back to the town where I grew up. And yet we do it almost every Summer. It bewilders my husband. And this year, I tried to explain it to him. See, growing up in a small town, everyone knows everyone. And, when you leave that town, it’s almost as [...]

Due to me having a C-section and Talon loosing more weight than the doctors thought was acceptable, we ended up staying in the hospital for three long and painful nights.  Most people would have looked at this as a little vacation (no extra kids running around, people bringing you your meals and cleaning up after [...]

As I sit and write this it has been 2 weeks, almost to the minute, since Talon was born.  Earlier this week I shared with you my thoughts and fears after hearing I would be having another C-section.  Today I want to share with you the reality of my C-section and the recovery. I was [...]
