I don’t really like clutter or mess but I’m married to a self professed pack-rat so I have to tolerate some level of it. (granted over the 4 years of our marriage he has improved dramatically.)

He really lives up to his name Noah (Peace) Asher (Happy), with the exception of teething. Here are his current stats: Weight: 20lbs (he’s actually lost a few lbs since he’s become mobile…
I’ve been seriously MIA from this site lately. Life has been busy and I’ve been totally unmotivated to write. Every time I sit down at the computer a child needs me. It’s OK though cause I’d much rather be out helping of playing with my boys than stuck in front of a computer. I had…
Last Wednesday, we learned why it’s important to provide Safe Storage for Cleaning Supplies around kids. Abel decided to give Joe and me a scare. While Joe was upstairs working and I was in the bathroom, he got under the kitchen sink (which was child-proofed) and drank some Mr. Clean (which is one of the…
