I love Colorado in the springtime. You simply could not ask for a more perfect evening. Lots of water play in the pool and water table, hamburgers from the grill for dinner, ice cream on the deck for dessert. Now the kids are in bed and Greg and I are on the deck enjoying the […]

Yum, Ketchup!
Pink Boots
Bree’s favorite shoes are her pink snow boots. It doesn’t matter that we haven’t had snow in over a month; she still prefers to wear her boots. I think they must feel nice and comfy on her feet and they are also easy enough for her to put on by herself. And of course she […]
Bree and her Eeyahs
Company Coming Over?
Is it sad that Adrianna asked me “is someone special coming over?” simply because I pulled out and used the vacuum today? In my defense, Bree is very scared of the vacuum (or anything that makes loud noises) so I should play off that excuse as to why I don’t do it often, right? Now […]
Ponies, Ponies, Ponies

Nursemaid’s Elbow
Bree, like many 3 year olds, has a tendency to flail her body to the ground in protest if she doesn’t want to be led somewhere. (In the door, out the door, across the street; any transition really.) This can lead to a problem if a grown-up is holding her hand, as we found out […]
Nutella
Bree loves Nutella. She’s over peanut butter now, so it has been nice to find something else she does eat.
Strong-willed
Battle of the wills today with my 3yo. (But no negative attitudes on her part or anything.) When she woke up with a dry diaper, I put her on the toilet hoping that this would be a good way to start our potty-training journey since nothing else is working. She’s been sitting there for 30 […]
New Bunk Beds
New bunk beds for the big girls! They are thrilled! Greg is going to make Adrianna a special set of lights that will go on the ceiling above the top bunk so she can stay up late reading without disturbing Bree. I think we will be moving the crib into the spare bedroom for Cate […]
