3 Months


Happy 3 month birthday, little guy!

This week you turned 3 months old and I am still truly amazed by it all. You’d think a “seasoned” mom like myself wouldn’t find as much wonder in this stuff the second time around, but that is so not the case. I think I’m even more aware of these […]

One month . . .


Happy one month birthday, little man!

I can’t believe we’ve reached this milestone so quickly. The time with you has flown by. I think that’s mostly because your big sister is keeping me so busy making sure she doesn’t suffocate you with her love. It’s a round-the-clock job, this anti-smother duty she has me on.

Don’t get […]

26 months and counting . . .


Happy 26 month birthday, Sophia!

This week you turned 26 months, and let me just say, this past month has been a memorable one. There’s a lot going on in our lives right now and I’ve not been great recently about keeping this blog updated. But I don’t feel too bad about it either. I have […]

2 years is . . .


Hey, 2 years. You’re pretty cool, you know that? You’re fun and loud and messy and full of words and sentences and paragraphs that sometimes make sense, but usually just make me laugh.

You are ornery about wearing your bib because you’re a big […]

Happy 23 months birthday, Sophia!
Yesterday you turned 23 months, and I’ve officially begun mentally gearing up for the big 2nd birthday. You have been such a trooper lately during this insanely busy month as we pack up all of our stuff and move to a new house. Being almost-two can be a hard and […]

Happy 22 month birthday, Sophia!
Yesterday you turned 22 months old, and I am trying to wrap my head around the fact that it’s almost time to celebrate your 2nd birthday. I still often call you my baby girl, but I can see clearly each day that you are quickly turning into my big kid.
This […]

Happy 21 month birthday, Sophia!
It’s been a whirlwind month of activity with you, as always. Your dad and I struggle to keep up. Thank goodness there are two of us. Because by the end of a day of chasing you (usually sans-pants) through the house, dancing with you to 80s music, “cooking” in […]

20 months and counting…


Happy 20 month birthday, Sophia!

Yesterday you turned 20 months old. Twenty! My mind is still trying to wrap itself around that number as you become more of a little person, uniquely you, every day.
This weekend I got your hair cut because, let’s face it, it was crazy and flowy and just plain awesome […]
