What a great weekend this was! The perfect combination of getting things done, relaxing, and having some fun. Friday Once Don came home, I headed out to Hoppers in “downtown” Waynesville to meet up with some of my girlfriends. I think it’s the only bar in town? We had so much fun being kid free… Read More Weekending: Itty Bitty City
If we were having coffee this morning, I’d hand you a baby before we even sat down because my boys are my entourage these days, but always love cuddling with someone new. If we were having coffee, I’d tell you how excited I am to be featured over on Whimsical September’s Saturday Sit-Down Series. I’d… Read More Coffee Catch Up
I am a long-time reader of the blog Whimsical September, and have always loved to read Erica’s “Day in the Life” posts – probably because I am kind of a nosy person and enjoy reading how others live their lives, but also because she has a daughter only a month younger than E and it’s… Read More A Day in the Life: 25 April, 2018
On Saturday, the boys hit the two month mark and it’s amazing to see how much they’re changing! Don was away for a week and couldn’t believe how different they looked when he arrived home. The boys are spending more time awake, and are starting to show more of their personalities. Samuel Stats: 11lb2, 1… Read More Twins: Two Months
Happy April! Last year we celebrated Easter in North Carolina where E and I were able to wear our spring dresses without being cold. This year we had a chance of freezing rain in Missouri on Easter morning and this past Sunday it snowed! In the spirit of being behind the curve when it comes… Read More Visitors and Easter
Happy Birthday Sweet Elizabeth Jean! I cannot believe that you are two years old today! Time has moved so quickly, and so much has happened in your short two years of life. There’s no way to even write it all down without this turning into a short novel. I think it’s appropriate that you were… Read More Elizabeth Jean: Two Years Old!!
Well, this week has started off a little crazier than expected! After ten days with my in-laws (who were more than happy to hold a baby and keep a toddler entertained), I had kind of forgotten what it was like to be on my own with the three kids. I know this is our new… Read More Blessings Amid the Chaos
When Don and I were newlyweds, we visited the Gateway Arch National Park in St. Louis (which back then was called the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial – the name was changed February of this year). It was summer so we walked around the arch and ventured inside to see the exhibits. However, the tram ride… Read More Gateway Arch National Monument
I know everyone is always so surprised how quickly time passes, but I am seriously shocked that the boys are already a month old! Don and I both agreed this past weekend that it is seems so much easier than Elizabeth’s first month. Granted, my dad was here for the first 5 days, and Don… Read More Twins: One Month!
Hi, I’m Katie and I have (had?) a Netflix addiction Ok, maybe not a full on addiction, but I was watching way too much Netflix during the day. I would almost always have it playing in the background on my laptop when I was playing with E. When she went to daycare, I turned… Read More Lenten Practice
