Devin here. Brittany asked me to blog more often so I thought I’d blog about our most recent dessert experience.  I’ve included the recipe in case anyone wants to eat it at home.   Ingredients 1. Car (or bike) 2. Costco card 3. 15.99 4. One Tuxedo Chocolate Mousse Cake 5. Homemade vanilla ice cream…

Since our trip to the aviation museum, Katelyn has been 100% obsessed with anything airplane. So, we thought we’d treat her to a ride on a real airplane and send her to Houston. Or maybe she had no choice but to go along for the ride with me. She had a ball the the airport…

A few weeks ago we had our family pictures taken. Choosing a photographer these days is certainly a task and even more so when you don’t want to spend your life savings to get a decent shot. Devin happened to stumble upon a lead through people at work which ended up being a great find….

I hit a few walls in the blogging world lately. 1) My computer—she decided the internet wasn’t for her and made my life difficult. She had a checkup with the computer doctor (Devin) who stripped her of Windows XP and gave her a dose of 7. So far, so good. 2) Someone thinks they are…

The other day Katelyn was, once again, playing with her headbands. As we were attempting to get her ready for bath time, she started doing this. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSF7P6KjV-U   She just couldn’t quite keep that foot under control long enough to make much progress.

A few weeks ago we decided that we wanted to get a bike seat for Buggy Bug. She has shown a interest in bikes and is particularly fond of Devin’s helmet. After some research we decided to go for the iBert seat which mounts to the front of the bike instead of the back. We…

As you know, Katelyn was breech. This resulted in a c-section. Though not an “emergency” surgery, it was performed at the convenient hour of 4am since I went into labor with her at 39 weeks, six days before her scheduled arrival. Some think that’s a crappy situation. I, however, think it was my best possible…

Yep, another girl! Apparently I was the only one not in tune with this. Ultrasound said she’s normal and growing right on target with the original due date of August 5th. And no, we will not be sharing any name ideas. As with Katelyn, name TBD and announced shortly after she is born.

We are officially passed the halfway mark! August still seems forever away. The nesting has begun but only in my head. Apparently it is possible to be inspired but not motivated. We made our fist big baby purchase for this go around–a recliner. I was reluctant to buy one with Katelyn because I was nervous…

I love it. I think I have a problem. Some time in January we purchased a delicious 12 ounce bottle from Costco. Now, three to three and a half months later, it is just a few servings short of being gone. I think for most people the Costco jug is usually good for many months,…
