What’s been going on with us lately….. If you NEED a chuckle today, watch this video of Daniel: Alan: He has been hard at work getting everything wrapped up for the move. He has made sure we have a house lined up to move into when we get there. There is SO MUCH planning that goes into a cross country move. Meanwhile, he’s been handing over his current responsibilities at work, signing out of his current post, lining up the […]
» Read moreWell, it finally happened. JD is crawling. And as promised, here are two photos of the event. In other news, at this moment Alan just came downstairs with ideas for things I need to do to prepare for the move. Ugh. ugh. ugh. Did I mention moving is not fun at all???

You know what I’m talking about: “When men are sick they lay down, but women keep working,” and other such derogatory thoughts our society has attached to our males? Well, let me tell you, Alan blows all those negative sexist remarks out of the water. That’s right. I said sexist. Everyone’s so […]
» Read moreLots of little things are going on here in the House of Many Little Men…. This is the thing I’m most excited about: JD is getting ready to take off. Each day he finds his way onto his hands and knees just a little bit more. He is also SERIOUS about his “standing practice.” He just loves to be on his feet.
