We are repainting Mackenzie’s room this weekend and starting her big girl room makeover. I have so many ideas swimming in my head (check my Pinterest boards to see what I’m thinking), but one thing is for sure… if Mackenzie’s room had a soundtrack, this song would be...

No CommentsHiking Lake Radnor
Sometimes it seems like if there is a remotely contagious strain of anything floating in the air within a 100-mile radius, someone in this house is going to catch it.

The other night Mackenzie woke up around 1:30 a.m. for a diaper change. I changed her and snuggled her and offered her crackers and water, but she wasn’t interested.

We have been lucky so far with Mackenzie. No big falls or scratches or smashed fingers or bruises or boo-boos. We had been lucky. Until last Sunday, that is. Chris has been recovering from the longest cold ever for the last few weeks, so I have been keeping Mackenzie with me as much as possible....
