Here goes:
Liam: “Mommy, when Kieran was in your tummy, was it dark in there?”
Me: “Um, sure, I guess…Why?”

…and now at four years.
Happy Birthday to the boy who introduced us to, and is continuing to teach, the fine art of parenting. In four years you’ve gone from being an adored baby to being an adored older brother. There have been big changes in your life this year. [...]

We’re getting ready to leave town for a week. We’re going to Gran-Gran’s. Actually, the boys and I are going to Gran-Gran’s, while Kevin gets the fun of attending a conference for most of the week.

Two Years

Two years ago, I started this blog. I had one son, pretty much still a baby….

…and now I have a pre-schooler and a whole new baby.

Zithromax is my friend, as is this channel, although I find it somewhat unnerving that my son is running around the house yelling, “Don’t go away, Sproutlets, we’ll be right back!”
