Happy Monday! I can’t believe another week is here. I feel like I have been going 100 miles a minute recently, and I don’t see any slowing down in the near future. Things here are staying busy between regular school schedules, doctor appointments (and have I mentioned doctor appointments? There have been so many recently!), …
Happy Thursday! What a week This has been a week for us. It started off good. My brother, who I haven’t seen in a few years came to visit! He was able to come with us to a fall festival with the kids and spend the night before he had to go back home to …
“Take the first exit.” “Where do I turn?” “The first right turn.” “But WHERE?!” “Right here!” Once on the exit ramp, our oldest daughter Elizabeth calmed down and said “I just didn’t know what you meant.” Kati replied, “You didn’t know what ‘first’ meant?” And she abashedly said, “Oh.” Clearly this driving excursion for the …

Jesse’s burial service was this past Friday. We were blessed with beautiful weather for it. I wanted to take some time to write and share pictures on it, but also share some information about the shrine where we buried Jesse. I feel like a lot of people who have miscarriages don’t realize that they have …

Pregnancy #5 We found out about a month ago that we were expecting our 5th baby. We were not planning on another one yet, but were so excited when we found out. I have always wanted 5 kids (I am the second oldest of 5 kids). When we found out we used a pregnancy calculator …
We moved into our first house when our third baby was six months old. We’d had three babies in four years, living in small apartments, and with my husband in law school for most of that time. We were so excited to be in our sweet little 1940s house, and stayed up late many nights …
