Mosely is Six
Birthdays. I love them. Mosely celebrated Six while we were on our vacation. In honor of that number and that stinkin’ adorable little girl – here are Six things I love about Mosely. One. She loves her little sister. When Mosely wakes up in the mornings she eases up to my side of the bed and asks quietly, “May I wake up little Pipes?” And once I agree Mosely makes every effort to take care of her little sister. She tries to change her diaper and dress her in clothes that are Mosely-approved. (Which usually means a dress, of course.) She even gets her a cup of water and entertains…

Birthday Dos
A lot of my pictures recently seem to be of this kid. But she’s just so darn cute. And today there are more shots of Little Willow. Because it’s a big day. She turns two today. Piper, you’re a pretty cool kid. I like how you ask me to sing your special song every night. “Bennnnd Will-whoa”. And I think it’s hilarious how you wander around the house singing, “We will ROCK you!” Your stuffed eagle is still your absolute favorite toy and companion. He’s filthy and you have a particular way in which you hold him – upside down so you can caress his tail feathers all day long.…

So This Is Half Way?
My birthday falls right on the heels of London’s birthday. And when you reach a certain age, like my age, you start thinking about the numbers in a different light. I don’t feel old. Really. (Well, some days, but not every day.) But the truth is, statistically speaking (why do we even say that?), I am middle aged. I could easily be at the half way point of my life. Okay, I guess theoretically at any given moment any of us could be at the half way point of our lives. But you know what I mean! And when I survey my life in the most basic of manners, it…

Six
Dear London, You make me laugh. Your thinking face is adorable. Your trying-a-new-food face is so serious and thoughtful. Your accents are spot on. (You are your daddy’s daughter, after all.) You are such a good big sister. I love how you help your brother when he is hurt. And I like how you offer your favorite toys to Mosely when she cries. You entertain Piper and make her laugh. You love to pick out onesies for Otto and you always want to cuddle with “his face”, as you say. You are obsessed with food. Every night at bedtime the questions are always the same. “What are we eating for…

Happy Birthday Bergen
Bergen turned four this weekend. Celebrating with Bergen Hawkeye . . . . – When you tell him “happy birthday” he responds by saying, “Happy Birthday!” – Kevin made him his own special Wolverine claws. Quite an undertaking, but well-appreciated. – After his birthday party, Bergen would thank his guests by shouting “THANK YOU FOR COMING” through a mouthful of cake. – Bergen received the coolest remote control car that keeps running, even when it hits a wall. Not only was it his first remote control, it was the first gift he ever requested after seeing it on a “cah-mur-shuh-mull”. [commercial] Ah, advertising. – Berg’s cake was the coolest Batman-inspired…
