Isle of Palms
Kaelyn and I went on our 2nd beach vacation of the year to the Isle of Palms, SC. Since we’d already been on vacation once Matt couldn’t join us again for this one. We missed him lots but we had tons of fun! We went with Matt’s parents, aunt/uncle, [...]
When The Stars Align
Saturday morning we woke up and realized we had nothing at all scheduled for the entire day – a small miracle these days. As “Family Fun Coordinator” Matt put me up to the task of coming up with something fun for our free day. I checked the weather forecast and saw the second [...]
Kaelyn Updates
Seems this has been an exciting week for Kaelyn (and us). Here’s a list of new things she’s started doing recently…
SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!!! – I didn’t want to get my hopes up right away, but after the most difficult week of my life of CIO (crying it out, for all the non-parents out [...]
Happy St. Patty’s Day
This blog really has nothing to do with St. Patrick’s Day, but I thought I’d send you a holiday greeting anyway. I did manage to dress both Kaelyn and myself in something green today. Speaking of green, we planted our first tree this past weekend. Well, it was actually about a week [...]
A Note For The 30-Something in the House
Happy Birthday Daddy! We love you!!
Two Months
Our little love bug is now two months old and growing like a weed! It has been so much fun this past month watching her little personality really start to shine through. She loves to be talked to and sung to. She will just laugh and smile and “talk” along with you. [...]
One Month
Man oh man, I can’t believe our little girl is one month old already! It seemed like she would never arrive and now it’s already been a month. It actually kind of feels like it has been one giant day for me. I must say that she gets cuter [...]
A Proper Introduction
I can hardly believe that Kaelyn is already 2 weeks old as of today! Life with a newborn is incredibly wonderful and busy, which is the reason we haven’t had a chance to write a detailed post yet about the newest member of our family. Usually when she naps I try to do [...]
The LA Times, Edition 7
The biggest thing that has been going on the past couple of weeks is Matt’s Mom (a.k.a. Nana) has been visiting us for about the past week. She came down to help us get everything ready for Kaelyn’s arrival. Nana has been cooking lots of meals to freeze and cleaning our house for [...]
The LA Times, Edition 6
The “Miller Inn” was open for business again the past few days. We’ve been open a lot this summer, wahoo! This time our guest was our friend Ben from Illinois.
We kept busy during Ben’s time here with stuff like frisbee golf, ultimate, tennis, swimming, playing games, going to the movies, grilling [...]
The LA Times, Edition 5
It’s been a while since I’ve had time to update. Lots of things have happened in the past couple of weeks. First of all, congratulations to our friends Ariel and Dan on the birth of their little boy, Esher!
A couple of weekends ago we went to SC for our baby shower. [...]
The LA Times, Edition 4
We’ve had lots of fun with our friends over the past week. To start, we went to a Durham Bulls baseball game last week with three other couples. The Bulls lost 12-0, but it was fun to hang out…and it was even more exciting because it was $1 food night. [...]
The LA Times, Edition 3
We finally got our new car, hooray! It has been SO nice to not have to coordinate our schedules this week. Whenever I feel like I can just get in the car and go to the gym or the pool or wherever it is I need to go. I would probably love [...]
The LA (Leigh Ann) Times, Edition 1
One cool thing about being pregnant is that you learn all about the amazing things your body is designed for. Like lately I’ve been learning all about breastfeeding. I won’t go into all the details here, but it really is pretty cool. I’ve been reading a breastfeeding book and last week I [...]
Warning: Long Post
Wow, lots of stuff has happened since I wrote a couple of weeks ago. I’ll just put this in bullet points so it (hopefully) doesn’t get too overwhelming…
I hung out with a new friend that I met from the TriangleMommies group that I joined. We just had lunch and had girl-talk while her [...]
Tea Garden
This was a very fun and productive weekend. My parents came up on Friday night and stayed until Sunday morning. On Saturday morning we decided on what color paint to use for Kaelyn’s room. There are so many paint choices that it is quite overwhelming.
We finally chose “Tea Garden” green by [...]
The Circle of Life
This past weekend we went to SC to surprise my Mom for her 50th birthday. The party turned out great and I think Mom was really shocked. Mom and Dad had been vacationing in Savannah, GA all week and when they returned home on Saturday evening, everyone was waiting at [...]
