Fall play
I have these habits… Pictures I feel like I need to take every year. This is the season where I’ve created all kinds of requirements: Costume pictures, school event pictures, Fall themed pictures with colorful trees and of course pictures of the kids playing in leaves. This year, the leaves weren’t as pretty as they…

Dance. It’s been in Jordan’s world for a long time. She started dancing at her first pre-school. We realized she really liked it during a school performance of The Nutcracker when she was 22 months old. She loved the stage. So she started taking dance classes when she was two and a half years old.…

Jordan had a chance to go to a birthday party for a little girl’s first birthday. We were lucky to be invited thanks to the birthday girl’s big sister, A. She and Jordan have a special little arm bond. The two girls had fun in between the great food, birthday cake eating and gift opening.…

I rushed back into town from my journalism conference just in time to help get the kids dressed and ready for a fun Halloween night. Jordan was SO excited to bring out her old princess hair from our 2008 trip to Disney World. Jordan was so so so thrilled to be Pinkalicious. She loves the…

As we head into the new weekend… I wanted to share a little about the past weekend. I’m out of town on a work trip and I’ve been so busy, I haven’t been able to give you updates about our super fun weekend last week. Why was it super fun, you ask? Well, I had…

The time has come. For years, Jordan has taken her lamby blanket to school every day. It’s also found its way to hours and hours of therapy and prosthetic building. But the time has come. Jordan was using lamby for purposes beyond nap time at school. It started causing problems we didn’t need to continue.…
Read More +Corn maze fun
We live about 15 minutes away from a really cool corn maze. The family creates it every year with a different design and quiz questions that you answer as you try to navigate the maze. I decided we’ve ignored this cool spot long enough… So we drove over to check it out this past weekend.…

I was out with the kids… and I saw someone smile at me from across the way. I smiled back because I didn’t want to be rude. A few minutes later, he comes walking over to me, says my name and how happy he is to see Jordan. I feel so bad. I couldn’t remember…
Read More +A messy outing
I knew this was going to happen… But I figured, why not. Jordan, Cameron and I were out having fun at a nearby indoor play area when the two kids talked me into going to an ice cream place. I must have been feeling extra kind because not only did I order the kids ice…
Read More +Jewel Jar update
Jordan and I started using a jewel jar to work on a serious respect issue back in August. She has to get the jewels from one jar into the other jar to earn a Fancy Nancy book. I figured I’d share an update. We’re about two months into this process. Earning a jewel still motivates…
