Tonight my mom came in to babysit and Andy and I went to an illusion show.  It was entertaining. I did, however, forget my glasses in the car and had to run get them during intermission time. I preferred the 2nd half of the show to the 1st half, because it was less blurry.

Jude’s 1st Car Wash and Levi wants to “G” “O”
Tomorrow I have to take a client out for lunch so I needed to get my car washed tonight. I wanted some company on the trip, so I asked Jude to come. I had a heck of a time finding an open car wash so I had to drive around a bit without a Garmin …

Asher Seeks the Spotlight
After work tonight, I decided to be brave and bring all 3 boys by myself to the play, Duck for President, at the Stages Theater. The boys couldn’t have been better for the first 40 minutes, but the last 20 minutes were difficult. Asher decided he wanted the spotlight. We were sitting in almost the …
Musical Beds
My typical night consists of a game of what I call “musical beds.†I typically start out laying down with Asher and Jude in Jude’s bed and after Asher falls asleep, I transfer him into the crib. After Jude and I have prayed and I have told him a funny story, he falls asleep and …
Boys are Barricaded
Given that we have a fenced in backyard, I’m always surprised to hear that Andy doesn’t just open the back door and let the boys wander outside for some fun during the days (maybe it’s because he’d have to get them dressed). They seem pretty eager for a change of scenery. Tonight Jude must have heard …
Jude’s Driving Us Nuts
Jude’s anti-seizure medicine commonly causes irritability as its main side effect. It seems to be highly effective in that regard. Jude seems to cry and throw tantrums more than his 2 little brothers combined. We can’t wait to get him weaned off this medicine, although he’s likely to be on it for another 9 months …
Jude’s Quote of the Day
After I asked him to write his name one more time for his school assignment: “Does anybody let a little boy take a rest?”
You’ve Come a Long Way, Baby Jude
Jude’s been through a lot (as you can see from a picture of him with his Monday through Friday radiation mask on), but today was a chance to celebrate that treatment is over and he’s hopefully cured of cancer. We had an amazing time. The party started at 11 a.m. and the last wave of …
Time Saving Secrets from Me, a Busy Working Mom
Read about me and you just may feel better about yourself. Although I’m a perfectionist at heart, I have determined after having my 3rd little boy that… 1. It is okay to let my kids go to sleep in the clothes they’ve been wearing all day long (although I did draw the line when I …

Busy Weekend Ahead
If you know me (and some of you really do), it’s killing me to not have the photos from the last 3 months in the album. There are hundreds of them that show our journey through Jude’s 2nd surgery and radiation and all the fun excursions we went on while making the most of our …
