Pretty Girls.

August 13, 2011

I had a play date with my friend Hayley… our sweet girls were born just 8 days apart. We hadn’t seen eachother in years, but it was amazing to feel like it had only been days.  And the girls had so much fun together.  It’s really incredible to see how alike two babies the same age can be and yet… Read More

Defeated Today.

August 1, 2011

I want to write blogs that make people happy.  I want people to cheer for us, and be proud of us, and be so thankful they stopped by to read.  I want to inspire moms, and empower women, make dads laugh.  I want to make people smile.
