Welcome

Though most of this blog contains pictures, it's also a detailed account of my life living with three boys. And yes, they are all boys. Hope you enjoy... they're pretty cute (but often smell).

Jealous

My parents are still touring the good ole USA. Currently they're in Hilton Head but I had to share this picture they sent. Gotta love our 40 degree weather here in MN but would much rather be on the beach!
