I never thought I’d be one those women. I never thought I’d be someone who would nurse my children indefinitely.
I thought, at best, I would nurse my boys until they were 6 months. If I was lucky. If I was lucky enough to have babies who made it easy for me. Babies who took to [...]
It used to stand on end. It drew comments from almost EVERYONE who’d pass us. It was his trademark.
Sebastian’s hair.
Alas, his baby duck down has grown and grown and grown. What was once a giddy porcupine became a floppy mop. And finally, it just fell. It fell into his eyes.

I think it’s fair to say that Sebastian is well on his way to becoming a pedestrian, no?
Well, I’m a bit late in posting ’cause he’s been doing this for a while but here it is! Nicholas is hot on his brother’s heels.
God help me.
Well, we finally did it. We abandoned our babies and left town for an adults-only weekend. It IS our first anniversary, after all.
Vegas seemed like the nearest destination where we could effectively pack in such vices as fine dining (damn fine!), drinking, cigar smoking, gambling and other mature amusement that we’ve thoroughly neglected in [...]
