They take after their mother...

I love it when I catch a glimpse of myself or Brian in our children. A look, or something they say or do, that you can definitely attribute to one or the other of us. Like Jake...


one of his favorite things is to snuggle in my bed with a good book. Something he got from me.

And Evie...


who apparently inherited my love of unusual animal banks. She found this beauty in the dollar section at Target all by herself, and when she begged to take "Mr. Crabby" home I just couldn't say no.


He just makes me smile. Honestly, if I had found him first I might have snagged him for myself!

And of course we can't forget Lila...



who absolutely loves it when it is time to crank up the music while we do the dishes and dance in the kitchen. You always know when I am cleaning my house because the music is upbeat and loud!

Brian says the other way you know they are definitely my children is that all three of them kick off all the blankets when the sleep and prefer to sleep on a diagonal. I say they are his children because if you stop them in the middle of what they are saying, they have to start over from the very beginning! (At least that is true for the older two, we aren't sure about that trait in Lila just yet...)

Hey Chrissy! Of course it's alright if you've added me to your blog list! I've also added you too! Hope things are going well, your kids are getting SO big, and they are cuties!
