So we had another kid! Yeah, I know I haven't been in touch on my blog. At all! Big enough news to post, our first son. He's a cutie! Check out that smile.I dub him LittleStrongMan because he is seriously so strong it's hard to move his arms. He's a great baby - sleeping, eating,

MsDetermined turned one year old yesterday! Grandma and Grandpa Hurd came over to help us celebrate, and she got to eat the traditional one-year birthday pink cookie. She attacked the cookie with more gusto than either of the other two kids did. In fact, her main strategy was leaning

Paul and I returned this morning from a two-night getaway to the Logan, Utah area. You know how some vacations are three-day, two-night? Ours was one-day, two-night... as we got in late Thursday night and left early Saturday morning. We did get a chance to dine at two area restaurants:

So, wordle.net is getting passed around - it's a pretty fun tool that you can either enter words of your choosing into, or put in a URL, and it will create random word art for you. Here's a sample of this blog via Wordle:

I'm notoriously bad at keeping baby books, so I hope that I can keep a general record of when milestones happen. Unfortunately, I don't remember the exact day that MsDetermined started taking steps on her own, but it was a couple of weeks ago. Around the beginning of September. She

Instead of the first game being next week, as originally scheduled, we found out late last night that LittleMum's first soccer game would be today. So we ran to the sports goods store to pick up the required shin guards (they were fairly cleaned out, but we found one pair in her size)

I'm a little slow, because this is the second week of school. However, we did have a big first week of kindergarten last week! In spite of freaking out a little bit and not wanting to meet her teacher at Back To School Night the previous week, LittleMum was excited to go to school on

My nearly-8-month-old, MsDetermined, is acting like she wants to be walking. She has been pulling herself up to stand for the last couple of weeks and stood by herself yesterday, a couple of times for a few seconds. It could still be a bit until she's taking steps by herself, but it

So, the kids are so cute in their daddy's old t-shirts. I just thought I'd share some pics from this morning. The ugly flowered chair is ideal for reading together.

I've redesigned the blog. Come look!
One other small change: I tried to make my kids more anonymous by replacing their names with pseudonyms. I've debated back and forth for a while, and finally decided that because my name is known and some of my other internet sites link to this

MsDetermined is crawling all over the place, and very intrigued by the blanket hill on the floor. The hill contains her big sisters, of course.

After a host of serious computer problems so far this year that has required the reinstallation of Windows on no less than three computers, I have been thinking seriously about data backup. I had a backup system in place - an external hard drive that included computer software that

For all of you who didn't get any snow this year, or perhaps for those of you who just like to see fluffy white flakes, this will be fun! Take a look-see! This was the storm before last before last before last, or something like that...

From the night before Valentine's Day to President's Day evening, we went on a road trip with our three little ones. The first stretch of our trip, from home to pick up Daddy to drive to Mesquite, took over 12 hours (it's supposed to take about 5 and a half hours). Why? Not because of

This winter season, we have received (quite literally, it feels like) tons of snow. At first, through the months of November and December, snow removal was nonexistent at our house. You see, Paul left it undone as a matter of principle: we spent thousands to put a snow melt in, only to

Cute photos of our newest little one! She's two months old, and she's a happy, smiling baby. What more could we ask for?
