I’ve been wanting to write this post for weeks now, but I just don’t feel like I have the right words to say what I mean. Regardless I’m just going to plow ahead and hope that it comes out in an understandable way. 🙂 Now that we have our two little miracles home and healthy …

The 4th Trimester
Bet ya didn’t know about that one didja? 😉 From the moment you see the positive pregnancy test your life begins to move in 12 week chunks. The first 12 you just want to survive the morning sickies and pray to not miscarry. The second 12 you start to feel good, not too huge, extra …
The OTHER Girls
I know you are all dying to know how the chicks have done since I’ve been gone, right? 😉 Well, I’m happy to say that our parents have been doing a fantastic job of keeping our flock happy and healthy! They moved into the coop not long after I landed in Albuquerque, and they’ve been …
HOME
I can’t get over the fact that we are actually home!! Thursday night was a pretty stressful time for me. I just “knew” that something was going to happen to delay Gabby’s discharge. So much for being a “half full” kind of person, huh? Ha ha! 🙂 Anyway, I got to the hospital on Friday …
Stress Fractures
Even the most flexible tree can only bend so far… And I’m FAR from the most flexible. Today the stress is finally starting to cause fractures. This morning Gabby had a Brady right before I got to the hospital. It was too much for this bent tree to take. So I sat there rocking her …
Parenting Blog
For quite some time now Stu and I have been talking about setting up a parenting blog. 😀 It will be full of stories, wit, tips & tricks, philosophy and a good dose of humor, I’d imagine. We’ve already got some great ideas for post brewing away! One thing we don’t have though is a …
Dr. Brown’s, Apple Juice, Gas Drops… oh and a swing!
That is the recipe for sleep! 🙂 I hope! It was last night anyway. Claire seems to think that it’s completely appropriate to keep mommy up all night and then sleep like an angel all day. 😉 I like the angel part, but not so much the staying awake all night! The night before last, …

Low Day
Today was a very low day for me. Rather than vent my spleen however, I’ll just stick to the facts and then get straight to the pictures. 🙂 Gabby had another “significant” Brady this morning bringing her count back to 0. 🙁 While I had a “feeling” that this would happen, it still was not …
A Zillion Words
So, I’m actually going to spare you my typical long-winded wordy posts today… mostly because I’m tired and the little grunter is sleeping at the moment and I should take advantage of that. 😉 But also because I wanted to post some photos and they are worth like 1,000 words or something, right? 😉 Enjoy!
Springing Claire
Our little blondie was behind bars. But July 6th was the day she was going to be “sprung.” 🙂 We were so excited to know that Claire was ready to leave the hospital!! To be sure I did have some mixed feelings about it. Not that I wanted her to stay at all, but I …
