We have had another excellent week. I feel like I am definitely in a good routine with the boys. My mornings are still not going as I had ‘dreamed’ they would be, but we will continue to work on getting them there. After taking Zeke to school on Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, […]

The weekends always seem to go too fast! We had a meeting at church tonight and almost forgot that tomorrow is a school day! Blake will be 3 months old this week. I can hardly believe it. She is such a good, sweet baby. We enjoyed a visit from Popps […]

Zeke started school this morning. He said it was ‘good’. He didn’t get in trouble. He ate his lunch. He took a nap. He was extremely upset that it rained on him as we were leaving. I don’t know if he thinks he is going back tomorrow or not, […]

Who knew that there was another Blake Russell in the world? And, she is an Olympic marathoner! I highly doubt her middle name is Lulabelle.
All is well here. We will go to meet the teacher tomorrow night for Zeke and then he will start school on Tuesday. I […]

Tomorrow will be the last day of ’summer’. Sure, there will still be hot days and swimming days, but no more sleeping in and staying in PJs until noon. We meet Zeke’s teachers tonight and Max’s teacher tomorrow!

We boarded the train at about 8:15 this morning and left the station promptly at 8:25. The boys LOVED it! The trip was a perfect length. They were so excited everytime the train blew its whistle. They had so much fun going back and forth across the aisle and looking out […]

Whan I took Blake to the doctor on Monday, I waited in the waiting room with a mom with a tiny baby. We started talking, sharing information about our girls. We started with names, then weights and then ages. Her baby was born a day after Blake. But, the biggest difference […]

It is really hot here. I think it is making everyone tired…and grumpy…or maybe it is just me. We are all doing well. Max is counting down the days to Kindergarten. I can’t believe it. I remember how small he looked last year next to the Kindergarteners. Now he […]
