Lately I’ve been feeling so outside myself. A depression maybe. We’re losing our house and as if that wasn’t hard enough- we are dealing with a bank that cannot give any definite or concrete answers to anything. We’ve lost our lives savings in having to walk away. My husband continues to work hard but for [...]

I have logged in a few times over the last few weeks and sat here & thought- wow it’s been so long since I’ve written that I don’t even know where to start. And summarizing just makes it sound silly. But, in all honesty, that’s probably where this post is headed. Today Scott had a [...]

Happy Birthday, My dearest Softpack. I love you more than I can even express. Heterosexual Life Partners FOREVER!

So today was easter. It’s hard to believe it was Hudson’s 3rd & Tru & Soy’s 2nd. I mean- I have a kid that has seen 3 easters?! It’s kind of mind blowing. This year was the first year I did an easter egg hunt & when it was all said & done I felt [...]

Among the things contained in yet another awesome weekend: Getting Celia’s. Hanging at The Circle. Going to visit Lisa & bring her cannolis. Getting a mani/pedi- FINALLY! Playing outside with the water table. Running from wasps. 4 mile bike rides where we never actually get to the destination. Cooking for my family. Hudson deciding to [...]

Things are getting so crazy in our house with three little (BIG!) personalities pulling me every direction. But OMG I DIE at how cute these kids are together. The playing in groups KILLS me. Yeah, I had to bust out some black box action on that last one. 1/2 naked babies are adorable- but someday [...]

We’ve been sick. Sawyer came home from my Mom’s with a bit of a runny nose. No biggie until Tuesday morning Truman & Hudson also had runny noses & I had some sinus pressure & that strange “i’m probably getting sick” tickle in my throat. I made it through Tuesday but was feeling pretty crappy. [...]

At 11:02AM on March 3rd, you joined our family as the younger twin & the little girl I always wanted. You were 6 pounds & 8 ounces- just one ounce shy of your singleton brother’s birth weight! I was shocked! You were almost a full pound bigger than your twin brother. And gosh, you were [...]

11:00AM on March 2010, you were born. You were the older, smaller twin at 5 pounds & 15 ounces. You were delivered, then, your sister & once in the recovery room- they started to survey you. Within a few minutes they whisked you off to NICU for what amounted to a 3-day stay of tubes [...]

Things have been very exciting around the Brandt household lately. We are all feeling better & the house has been buzzing with the excitement of Scott’s birthday, Truman & Sawyer’s 1st birthday, their party & the fact that they are officially walkers!! It started a day or two ago when Truman walked about three steps [...]
