It seems to me that for the past few days, Kenny has been working hard to stretch his little wings towards supreme rascal-hood. If I say go, he stops. If I say come here, he runs in the other direction. 90% of his antics are accompanied by giggles and mischievous looks, but … Read more
Yesterday Casey and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary! We had a fantastic date night – dinner downtown and an overnight at a classy B&B. It’s amazing how invigorating just a short trip away together (sans Kenny) can be. I thought it would be fun to post a few pictures of Casey and … Read more
I think that Casey and I are addicted to home improvement projects. It seems as if every season, there is some reason to have a truck load of workers inside or outside of our house, making messes, making noise and making Dudley crazy.

Today Casey was a guest lecturer at the Naval Academy (something he’s done a few times before) so I tagged along to one of the classes to see him in action. The professor of the class is a good friend of ours, and his wife offered to watch Kenny for a few hours so … Read more
Kenny has one impressive set of vocal chords. He is LOUD. Most of the time, loud is cute, funny, charming and free-spirited. But occasionally, when pregnant Mommy has an epic headache, Daddy is having a day and Dudley never got his walk and is flying from couch to couch, airborne with the … Read more
