Confession of a Blogging Momma

People often comment about how awesome it is that I have time to blog (almost) every day. The truth is that I don’t write a post every day. On the days when the boys are doing really good, I sit down and write up several posts at once. Then on the days […]


Teething Forest

Forest is finally getting teeth! For the past week we’ve been able to make out the visible outline of the teeth, particularly on top. Every morning I take a look and today I could actually see a tooth breaking through the gums! Can you believe it, 14 months old and getting his […]


Brother Bear

We don’t watch a lot of tv. In fact, we recently had our cable turned off completely and returned the cable box. Thanks to the internet and iTunes we can keep up with our addictions like Battlestar Galactica and I’ve recently gotten into Lost and have three years to catch up on. […]


off for a bit

Robot vs. Toddler

Because they aren’t always cute

We have full on toddlers now, complete with tantrums. Every frustration, no matter how small, breeds a bout of crying from Logan. He is very quick to emotions (much like his momma, I must confess). He has trouble getting out of the emotion once he starts. He really is the more […]


Introduction

Before posting anything else on this blog, I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Dustin, and I’m one of Logan and Forest’s fathers (the biological one). Now that this site is set up so that multiple people can post to the blog, I intend to also contribute my experiences with the […]


An Active Server

I’m really working on compassion this year. I used to think that it was patience that I needed more of but I think that the better word, the more accurate word, is compassion. I want to be more compassionate and as a result I will be more helpful, more kind, more considerate and […]
