Happy 2 Weeks Lane!
As of tomorrow, our sweet Benjamin Lane will be two weeks old! I can’t believe how fast it’s going by. I wished and wished for these days, and now I am ready to press the pause button and freeze time for a bit. Our boy has gotten bigger and better in just the two short … Continue reading
Lane’s Arrival
Tuesday, January 3rd, started like any other Tuesday really. School was out and Chase was coming home from his Dad’s after spending a long New Year’s weekend. We spent the morning hanging out in our pajamas and watching tv. After lunch, I started having a few strong contractions. This was not much different than previous … Continue reading

It’s beginning to look alot like…
Christmas! A few days ahead of turkey day and our quirky tree is up! We passed on the tree farm to help make things easier over the next few weeks. I give my guys all the credit. It looks great in here. Happy Holidays!!
Still the exception….
Some days I look around and just see sadness. Families and marriages are falling apart, health is temporary, people disappoint you and loved ones die. As I bring another little soul into this world it scares me to pieces that things won’t always go the way I hope, and all I’m doing is adding another … Continue reading
