A lot of new

Jordan’s Grandma, Poppy and Daddy Jr. are here to help us build a new deck in the backyard!! It’s very exciting. Plus, the girl has shown a LOT of interest in riding a bike. Not just a tricycle, but a bike. And since she really has shown that interest, her grandparents pitched in and got…

Sleep?

I’m famous for not sleeping (I’m up too late at night right now)… But lately I’ve totally fallen off the strict bedtime bandwagon. Jordan used to need to go to sleep by 7pm… Now we’re lucky if she’s down by 9. She has a tendency to delay bed time 30 or 45 minutes. She has…

Official Summer Fun!

Summer is here!! Our pool opened (it’s the first time we’ve been members of a pool) and it was great. The water was cold, but the place is really fun. Jordan got to go down a big water slide, play in the water and work on a couple of swimming moves. She isn’t swimming on…

It was a small class that met on Thursday mornings since last September. She’s had a chance to learn the basics of dance, improve her balance and overall jumping…

Bravery, development… And I didn't have a camera

After what was supposed to be a non-stop rainy weekend… We had weather that granted us all kinds of time to enjoy the great outdoors. So we got the kids out on their bikes. Jordan got on her tricycle and Cameron on his new bike. Our house isn’t far from a really big parking lot…

The power of the web

I’m so honored to be Jordan and Cameron’s mom. They teach me so much… and I feel really lucky to have this website (and the boy’s website) to share my thoughts and experiences. Recently I’ve had a chance to talk to a few people who met me through this blog… And I can’t explain how…
