We have been pretty busy the last month – as we found a new house (we closed yesterday 4/6), and have been working on selling our current house. That said, doesn’t mean the kids have slowed down a bit. Bike – Izzy turns 4 in a few weeks, but we Read more…
Last week (It’s been busy, I meant to write this last week) I was peeling a banana, then I got sad because I couldn’t give the peel to Mac. It made me think about my dog Shadow, who died about 5-6 years ago. I told Izzy and Joe the story Read more…
The last few weeks have been marked by one thing, and that is change. This post isn’t so much about Izzy and Joe, but just our lives. We had an offer accepted and went under contract on a new house in Charlotte, after about a 9 month search, and we Read more…
Joe has started giving kisses. To the point where, he grabbed my face the other day and kissed me straight on the lips, nice and wet. Then he laughed at me. He will try to kiss everyone, especially Calista when she falls. Maybe all that kissing is wearing him out, Read more…

Izzy is starting to get the hang of basketball. This past week, she stole the ball from the other team, then proceeded to pass it right back to that team. She said that she wanted them to pass it back to her. She also was playing great full court pressure Read more…
So – Anna finally got covid. Somehow, we don’t think Izzy, Joe, or myself has gotten it. Anna was able to go back to work today, and she was able to see the kids and touch them, after being isolated in her room since last friday night. Ultimately, there were Read more…
Izzy and Joe did not make it to midnight new year’s eve. But they did have a big week/weekend. We went to Max and Harrison’s. Izzy and Joe sat on the ponies. Izzy got to walk on them a bit and that was all she needed/wanted. They played for a Read more…
