So here’s what the kiddos looked like this animal-themed Halloween:

This morning when I got up to give the kids breakfast and start the day they were already hyper. It’s almost as if today is a day where they get to play dress-up and get a huge bag of free candy from people. Luke didn’t want breakfast. He wanted candy. [...]

On Saturday, when Luke first saw Olivia in her pigtails, he looked her right in the face and said, “Nice hair, Bila Boo!!!”
This morning, I was half asleep in bed with Olivia wiggling next to me when Luke climbed on the bed and laid down next to Olivia and put his arms around her. [...]

Madeline has been watching the new Veggie Tales dvd, “The Wizard of Ha’s” for the past week. It’s fantastic. She watched it two times and started drawing elaborate pictures from the show — the wizard, Larry as the Tin Man, the Land of Ha’s. She brought me the pictures one by one. [...]

Olivia will be six months old this Sunday, the 28th. She has been a content baby from birth and has only ever had the odd evening where she’s fussy or a night when she’s had a hard time falling asleep. Tonight she didn’t want to go to bed. I tried just after 8pm to put [...]

Last night I was determined to not let the sex bomb just because the sex bomb did. While we were getting things started up I was trying to concentrate but could not get this little thing out of my mind: I’d just weighed myself and weighed 3 pounds more than a week ago (I [...]
