Twins
Us
Have I told you about “us”? It’s become really obvious lately how Forest strongly identifies as a unit with Logan. He’s always saying “us”.
I first noticed it when I was taking Forest for this Occupational Therapy appointments for the Tactile Defensiveness. We sat on the floor to play a game [...]

Easter pics (finally)
I owe you some pictures. Here is Easter:
Some Updates
The past month has been full of great success.
Logan is now doing really well on the potty training, even letting us know when he needs to go. So good old fashioned “stick-to-itiveness” did pay off! I know it sounds silly but I just love to see his little excitement to wear [...]
On the Road to Success
This week I hunkered down and focused on two things at home, Forest’s brushing and Logan’s potty training. And I’m happy to say that we are making great headway with both.
Forest is wearing clothes that he hasn’t worn in months and gets into the car seat without any upsets. The car [...]
Weekend in Photos
Despite Brad having to work a lot this weekend, we still managed to get outside and enjoy some of the beautiful spring weather in Austin. Saturday we spent the afternoon at the Austin Zoo, Sunday morning I took the boys to a newly discovered park just down the street and Sunday afternoon we flew [...]
Tactile Defensiveness Occupational Therapy Begins
Wednesday’s occupational therapy appointment was pretty straight forward. She did some basic tests to figure out where Forest is developmentally (kid is super smart, in case you were wondering) and then I changed his shirt so that she could see how he reacts. She showed me how to use this small medical brush [...]
Struggles and Solutions
I don’t remember when or how it started but it crept up over time and has become such a major part of our lives. Every single day we struggle with getting Forest dressed. His clothes hurt him, he says. Sometimes it’s a full on mini tantrum, other times it’s a few moments [...]
3 Year Doctor Visit
The boys went to the doctor this morning for the first time in a year for their 3 year check up. Because we have moved, I chose a new doctor much closer to the new house and loved the nurse and doctor. Very friendly and handled to rowdy toddlers really well.
Forest [...]
Birthday
Today is the boys’ 3rd birthday and I am celebrating with a day all to myself. Brad is out of town until tonight and the boys left yesterday with Dusty to spend their birthday weekend with their grandparents.
As I sit down to write this, I think back to their birth and how [...]
