Friday, June 25, 2010 One year ago today, Seamus was in my belly. Hard to believe looking at his pictures now. We can’t imagine life without his smiling face. Seamus – in jail! June 25th. School is officially over and this is our first full week off. It has been fantastic. So busy too! We […]

Thursday, May 27, 2010 Seamus is now 11 months old. Just in the past few days he has developed exponentially. He has started crawling very fast, he’s into everything, just climbed up first step, just pulled himself up two days ago and is now doing it all the time, eating more solid foods, eating waffle […]

Monday, April 26, 2010 Today was the first day of school after vacation. We had a FABULOUS week and were all sad to see the week end. Jack especially had a difficult time going back. Seamus is 10 months today. Unbelievable. In this past week alone Seamus has learned to crawl, eat chunk foods, feed […]

Friday, March 19, 2010 So the birthday boy has turned 4. He loved his train cake. Spring is in the air. The past few days have been gloriously warm, with the sun drying away all the snow and moisture. It feels great to go outside in sneakers, without even a jacket. Yes, unseasonably warm, but […]

February 20, 2010 Yes, today is my birthday. Dare I say I’m 28 again? Mike asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday and the decision was tough. Take time for myself or spend it with the kids (who are PSYCHED it’s my birthday). After a week of school vacation and me taking […]

A New Year! January 15, 2010: It was a rough December between the holidays, endless colds, Nona’s sickness and handling her nursing home care, and home time off from school. This past week we finally got over the hump and are getting back to normal. January review: New Year’s at Di’s with Bob’s family; John […]

Warmest Winter Wishes! December 10, 2009: 2009 has been another phenomenal year. The biggest event of course was the birth of Seamus. All of us are charmed by his sweet personality and we love him completely. We can’t imagine life without him. Other big events include Jack starting pre-school and Isabelle Kindergarten. For 2009 Mike […]

Tuesday, October 27, 2009 Seamus is 4 months, one day. Amazing. It has been a slightly rough week with him (with the cold and all). But even then, he’s a sweet boy. Just a lot of irregularity in schedule and waking up often. Seamus just has his 4 month check-up. He weighs a whopping 19lbs! […]

Tuesday, September 29, 2009 Jack quote: This afternoon, while I’m pumping milk into a yellow tinted bottle, Jack says to me “Mommy why are you pumping yellow milk?” Isabelle & Jack Quote: At dinner tonight Isabelle said “I’m going to be a cowgirl when I grow up” and Jack piped up “when I grow up […]

Monday, August 24, 2009 So, I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed. Tonight Mike and I opened all the letters from Morris School regarding Isabelle and Jack. They’re going is happening all too fast. Jack will be attending pre-school 3 mornings a week and Isabelle starts kindergarten!! The papers mentioned bus routes, meals, future dates, expectations, etc. […]
