I’m just so thankful everyday for having our loving daughter Sydney. She lights up my heart whenever she smiles at me. While she was a unexpected surprise, it’s impossible to imagine how life would be without her. She is truly a gift from god. This Sunday she turned 2 years old and it’s just hard […]

This time we decided not to wait until the bed was being scaled with a single leap over, and got Sydney her own bed. She’s been really good at sleeping on the floor mat at Grandma’s house so we thought she was ready. We waited for it to be assembled before we brought her into […]

We spent a few hours Saturday afternoon in Millennium park. I’m always amazed at how beautiful Chicago is in the summer and how much it has to offer. We had a impromptu picnic on the lawn, let the kids roam free and had a great time. A few photos are here, the rest are on […]

It’s 92 degrees here in Chicago and I’m driving a minivan with a broken air conditioner and 3 crabby/sick/screaming kids. It’s just so gratifying when the plan you had for your life is executed on so perfectly. I finally know what they mean by “living the dream”. It’s all exactly as I dreamed it would […]

This is pretty typical of what it’s like when we try to take any kind of planned photo at all with the kids. Running and chasing them with the camera is fine, but try to get them to sit with you and just give up. These photos are from Mothers day and the rest are […]

While the Radio Flyer Red Wagon we’ve been using has served us well, it has slowly been becoming a tight fit with the boys. Not only do they almost not fit anymore, but there’s no extra room to carry the diaper bag or snacks. So, enter the new “Tractor Wagon” (this is what Andrew calls […]
