This is my brother, my baby brother. His name is Jacob or Bub, if you’re me. I’ve yet to remember where I came up with that or where it started. Isn’t he cute? Looking at how fat those legs were, you wouldn’t believe he’s the same kid now. Oh I was so in love with [...]

We had lunch with my cousin Emily (Mimi) and her husband Chris today. The last time we saw them Avelyn was a month and a half old. She slept the whole visit and Emily held her like she was a Fabergé egg. It was really cute. This time around she was a little more relaxed, [...]

We are in San Antonio. I had intended to let Kevin sleep in today so I woke up this morning (bright and early, thanks Baby Girl) and took Avelyn downstairs to play. We were having a marvelous time, as usual, when I looked into her face and was suddenly afraid of the hurricane. What IF [...]

Avelyn’s four month birthday came and went. That’s pretty crazy. She is becoming such a fun, beautiful little girl and I am so proud to be her Momma. Right now I am the center of her universe and you’d think the world was ending if I left the room. Her little grins and her great [...]

I am pooped. The semester is over and I don’t have class until September 2nd. Of course I do have about 400 pages to read for the first day of class so I’m super psyched for this “break”. Our air conditioner FINALLY got fixed last night at 7pm. I had intended to drive to [...]

I woke up this morning bright and early to the cry of a hungry baby. My eyes barely stayed open as I fed her in the dark. We had almost an hour until we had to get up and I was silently begging Avelyn to slip back into a peaceful slumber beside me. She did [...]

Avelyn has had a very busy couple of days but is handling it like a champ, thankfully. I have been incredibly busy with school so I am happy she has been [relatively] okay. She tends to cry each night around 5:45 and she wakes up nearly every morning at 5:45 on the dot. It’s a [...]
