Today I hit those magical double figures, ninety nine days until baby #2’s due date, and to celebrate Dan and I sat down last night at our computers and with the assistance of a couple of baby naming sites finally came up with some names for the new babe. We now have two first and [...]

Today’s “Tuesday Tutorial” is running a bit behind, it should be up by the end of the day assuming I can work around Declan’s routine. It seems I woke up this morning and left my brain languishing in bed and no amount of coaxing is getting it out from underneath the covers [...]
