Whats even better than a sleeping baby?Two sleeping babies!
Garrett and Rhys love their bumbo chairs. Lately, they have been enjoying having "chats" with each other while they relax in their bumbos. Its pretty cute:
Today, my little guys are six months old (4 months corrected)!I thought that time really flew by when Rylen was a baby, but this is ridiculous. Everything with these guys seems to be in fast forward....
I am big one for reminiscing. Im always "remembering when" or relishing memories. Im a sentimental person and have a hard time saying good bye to things. So, its very typical of me to remembe...
I will explain the title of this post a little further on....or maybe no explanation will be required!So, just to set the scene...I had one baby with an ear infection. And one baby with croup. T...
We love camping. But we are terrified to do it this year with two babies. So far. Maybe as the summer progresses, we will gain the necessary courage to try and cram everyone and their stuff...
Rylen is one of the most active little boys Ive ever met. I know that everyone thinks their kid is busy, but I really do think Rylen is busier than most.Even in his sleep, he is always going, his min...
Just some recent pictures of my sweet little guys...# 1# 2#3
My amazing husband gave me a pretty awesome Mothers Day present this year: a Mommy Escape!Yes, for the first time in three years (not counting when I was hospitalized for the birth of the little guys...
Thank you Cynthia Korman for my great new blog header!
My big boy is three!Cant believe it. Time goes by so fast. I know everyone says it over and over, but really its so true. When you have kids, time seems to speed up or something. Anyways, Rylen is th...
Probably the cutest thing a baby can do. Rhys has discovered his thumb, and its adorable. Maybe this habit will ensure me a good nights sleep in the near future??? Lets hope!
Garrett is a little charmer. All he has to do it catch your eye and he is full of huge baby grins. And, nothing makes him smile bigger than when you say the word "poop". Typical boy.You...
Note: this post was actually written last week, but I was interrupted by a hungry baby and didnt get around to posting it. So, really this post should be titled "Last Week". But, better late ...
My boys are getting big!!! Rhys is 11 lbs 2 oz and Garrett is 10 lbs 11.5 oz! Big Little and Little Big have returned! Yes, thats right, Rhys has finally returned to his rightful place as the b...
Theres nothing quite like baby snuggles.This is my little cuddle bug Rhys. This is after literally 2 hours of fussing and eating like I had starved him for a week. He finally settled and I was m...
I have some pretty awesome friends.These are two beautiful gifts I have received from two awesome ladies:Thanks Jen and Kari! You guys sure know how to bring a smile to a girls face. I love the ...
It was the Winter Fair last week in Brandon. Now that Rylen is a bit older, we enjoy doing these types of activities with him.We decided, for his sake, to brave taking everyone to the fair. We d...
It amazes me that I have 4 month old babies. They are so small and tiny still, and they dont do anything that 4 month old babies should do. They weigh about 9 and a half pounds each. I think whe...
Dear Ben,We miss you and think of you every day. I am so happy that I had the amazing experience of growing you and carrying you inside me. Your time with us was brief and I wish I cherished it more....
Everyone asks if we dress the boys alike. I usually laugh at this. The sheer effort this would take to coordinate on a daily basis is just too much for me to even think about. Mostly because i have t...
Rhys is our little fighter. He has already overcome so many obstacles in his little life. When I think back to how sick he was, I am amazed at his resilience and strength. I am so glad that is a...
Trying to find time to spend time individually with the kids is a bit difficult. But, we try. And it is very important to me to see the babies as individuals, not just "the babies". The...
We have been home in Brandon for about two weeks now. We arrived back on February 22. Its been crazy, wonderful, and very surreal. The last time I was here, was November 22. I was hugely pregnant, ve...
Mark and I had an awesome Valentines Day this year. Which is kind of funny, because neither of us feel its a holiday worth celebrating. Partly because we have just finished up with his birthday (Nov ...
During this entire journey, Mark and I have been really amazed at the kindness and generosity of our friends, family and even perfect strangers! We have never been in a position to need help from oth...

I thought I should do a post about Rylen, since I am partly doing this blog as a way to journal for myself. I doubt very much that I will remember many details about this crazy time in our lives.Ryle...
After 71 days in the NICU, Rhys finally got discharged! I was so nervous to take him home. We are so used to him being sick, that it was really hard to wrap our heads around the idea that he co...
