Jude, like most children, enjoys eating his boogers. He calls them, “slimy, but good.” I figure he’ll grow out of it so I don’t really give him a hard time about it. I’ve never heard of kids eating eye boogers, but I guess Jude gave it a try. He told me, “Eye boogers look like boogers …

Jude’s Quote of the Day
Jude:Â “I love you so much!” Me:Â “I love you so much too!” Jude:Â “I was talking to Asher! (with a laugh)Â I love you so much too!”
Super Saturday
We didn’t do too much yesterday, but it was a good day as all “stay home days” are. Jude woke me up 17 minutes before we had to be on the road to karate. The rest of the family was still sleeping. I managed to get ready and hit the road with Jude and Levi and arrive …
Boxing Bobo
Asher (aka Bobo) is an interesting little guy. He does so many things that neither of my other boys would have dreamed of doing at age 1 like climbing ladders and pointing at the candy jar and begging for treats, etc.. Since everyone in our family is just crazy about Bobo, he really gets away with a …
Slouched and Sleeping Scare
Jude gave me a little scare last night. I had left work early so I could get him to his 1st official karate lesson, but he was not ready to go when I got home (and either was Asher who I was also bringing with me). So, in the end, when we finally got up …
Another iPad
I’ll be honest, when Andy first approached me about a desired toy — his first iPad — I probably thought (or maybe even said) “here we go again…when will this guy ever be satisfied with what he has…but, whatever, he can have it if it will make him happy.†I would have never guessed that …
Weekend at Grandma’s
The boys and I had a great time at my parents’ house this past weekend. I just love getting my boys together with their cousins. Levi was thrilled to have his “best friend” Jonah to play with.  Jude and Ivan are only 2 months apart so they could practically be twins. They are best buddies, …
Arrival of the Reinforcements
My mom has really had her hands full with Jude and his 2 cousins for the past 2 days. This morning, I will head to Litchfield with Levi and Asher to join the fun. (And Andy will stay back home to do whatever it is that Andy does.) I’m not sure if I will be …
Jude, the Peacemaker
When I was a little girl, I’ve been told I was a peacemaker. I was always breaking up fights of boys in our neighborhood. My mom saw that side of Jude. I guess Jude’s cousins had really been going at each other and the little one (Jonah) ended up in tears and wanted his Mommy. …
A Bloody Nose from Dominoes
It sounds like Jude and his cousins, Ivan and Jonah, are having a blast at Grandma and Grandpa’s house. While my mom (their grandma) was making dinner last night, her understanding was that they were downstairs playing dominoes. Of course she assumed they were playing the game with tiles with little dots on them. Oh no. …
