I’m sitting at home. ALONE. ALL ALONE. L I T E R A L L Y A L L A L O N E. And it’s been such a great day. I have done so much stuff today that has really filled my cup up to make me a whole human being again. As I […]

one year old

After a hectic start to Jolee’s life…where are we now? Well, I did not keep up month to month posts with Jolee. So, we are pretty much going to jump from 4 months old to now…1 year old. She’s perfect. And feisty. And funny. And I love her so much. As I was editing the […]

It’s a never ending cycle. I swear. We have our hopefully, **fingers crossed**, last appointment for Raelynn’s blood work on November 13th. We just have to go to the pediatrician and she has to get her finger pricked and I think they will be able to test it in the office. So, we should be […]
