To Hadley on her first birthday

December 5, 2012 · 3 Comments

When I first found out that I was pregnant with you I knew for a fact that out of all the families in the world you had chosen us. After I took six pregnancy tests and picked my jaw up off the floor and had a panic attack and ripped the calendar off the wall and stared at it for two hours wondering when in the hell this happened, I knew out of all the families in the world ...

The culprit

July 2, 2012 · 8 Comments

As I'm sure you recall, Lila was born with two butt holes.  Or, as those in the biz call it, a "deep sacral dimple."  Of course I was worried when she was born because it was so deep that they had to do an ultrasound to make sure there were no bats or gnomes or anything hiding out up there.  But now I'm actually excited about the possibility of her making a decent living as a ...

The baby that stole Christmas

January 4, 2012 · Leave a Comment

Yesterday, a month and a half ahead of schedule, I took down the Christmas decorations.  A task that usually leaves me sad and a little forlorn, hence why I try to put it off until Valentine's Day.  Or our long dead Christmas tree bursts into flames because someone flipped on the overhead light.  Whichever comes first.
