Mackenzie,
The day has arrived, today you turn one. It feels a little surreal- how did an entire year go so fast? I can look through pictures and so vividly remember the day they were taken- I feel like months passed like days. So here we are, your first birthday.

I was just talking to Tricia the [...]

Its been a busy day. So busy in fact that I took the time to write down all I’ve done today for my husband to see, like a child displaying their artwork on the fridge. Im tired. But good tired. I’ve gotten a lot accomplished and now Im just, wheew, tired.
I just took a shower [...]

This morning we’re back to puking again. I think the only thing more miserable than taking care of one puking child and a baby who is interested in playing with the puke bucket would be two sick kids. This sucks. Im not sure what I’ve done to piss Karma off. Karma:1 Me: 0

I’ve started working on animal sounds with Mackenzie. We’ve got the bunny down pat- relatively speaking. Instead of a wrinkled nose and sniffing in and out its a wide open mouth with fast hot-n-heavy breathing. A cow says “baaoooo”. And a fish puckers its lips. Thats all I’ve got.

Dear Little Mac,

1) Yesterday Nathan was helping my brother cut his hair in the backyard. Occasionally he would hold the clippers and run them through my brothers hair. And then he turned them on himself. That little cowlick that would spike up in the front? Gone. Not entirely a bad thing I guess.
2)  Mackenzie has just started [...]

Dear Mac,
Lets get right down to business. First and foremost you started crawling 3 days ago. Im not sure how I feel about this. Maybe its because I haven’t had a chance to actually stop and think about it, since Im so busy making sure your brother hasn’t left a lego piece in your path [...]

Folks, we’ve got a crawler. Hopefully I can get some pictures today. Currently my camera battery is dead.
For now, a few more from the trip:

Dear Kiki,
I had every intention of being on the ball and getting your nine month post up on time- just days after we got home. I figured there would be so many hands to hold you and play with you I’d have an abundance of free time to write. But, well, to be perfectly honest [...]
