Little People and Wake Forest Fan Fest
August 15th, 2010 by Southern Babies
The kids started the week bright and early at their 3 year check up at the pediatrician’s office. Overall they are great. LITTLE, but great! The doctor was pleased with the great year they had and really noticed how far they have come in the last year. The kids were able to get their Read More

In Which I Think About The Past Year
August 11th, 2010 by Connor's Song
This time last year, I was writing about how well Connor was growing, cleaning our house, and how the little guy was taking to his new tricycle. I had no idea last year on this day that in less than twenty-four hours my life would be completely turned on its head. Tomorrow marks one year to Read More

Athens, Georgia, that is. Yesterday Karen and I took our kids on the first field trip of my school year. We ventured over to Athens, Georgia (about two hours southeast of here) and visited The State Botanical Garden of Georgia as well as a very nice playground nearby. We tried to visit a Read More

Flashback Friday
August 6th, 2010 by Eva Nichole
Since we are doing the Relay for Life today I thought I would look back at some of the other walks we have done. We did the Al’s walk/run for the Children’s Hospital and in honor of Eva as well as to thank all our doctors and nurses who helped Eva all the times she was in the Read More

Today’s Guest Peeker is sweet Katy from Louisiana. We have a date, her & I, to meet next April in New Orleans for Mom 2.0 conference. She is all kinds of wonderful. I am seriously jealous of her educational units and her iPad. {She says it belongs to Charlie…yeah, um sure it does Read More

Which Season????
July 25th, 2010 by Beneath the Wings
When I first noticed Ricki wearing winter clothing in the summer, I assumed hat it was due to the lower number of buttoned on the blouse, making getting dressed all that easier. So I made it “jolly well clear” that she did not have to be so lazy as to wear winter pullovers in the summer heat, Read More

July 25th, 2010 by T & t + 3!
It’s been a couple of busy days. On Tuesday night, Brandy from Maxim came by to do the acuity assessment to determine if I qualify for additional nursing hours through Medicaid. Since we still had the plan of treatment from the Maxim nurses in California it was a pretty short meeting. On Read More

In Which We Have A Not So Wonderful Day
July 23rd, 2010 by Connor's Song
Not the best of days today, I’m afraid. First a little bit of good news– Connor’s rash, though rather nasty looking, hasn’t spread at all, and I’m about 95% sure it’s just a bad case of diaper rash brought on by the change in brands. I’m glad I waited Read More

Thursday
July 22nd, 2010 by The Lutz Family Fun Page
Today we went to lunch at the school again. When I told Duncan we could go eat lunch, he cheered. They were having corndogs. Jason and I came home and took a nap. Playing at the park two days in a row just did him in. Then Kristen called me and invited us to go to Cowabunga Bay. We went from Read More

The Tortoise and the Hare
July 18th, 2010 by Beneath the Wings
For a long period we have been dealing with certain negative behaviors of Ricki. I have tried behavior modification plans, rewards, and punishments, to little avail. But I reevaluated everything, and felt that the plan I had in place was correct, and should theoretically work. I suspected that it Read More

Emotional
July 18th, 2010 by Jazzie and Tahlia
After a pretty good day today, I put Jazzie to bed and went downstairs. After about 20 minutes, I hear her crying. When I went into her room, Jazzie was sitting in her bed with tears streaming down her face. When I asked her what was wrong she couldn’t tell me. I asked her if she was mad, Read More

Going to the Orthodontist
June 29th, 2010 by The Shaddox Boys
Well, tomorrow is the day that I am taking both boys to the orthodontist. I just finally decided it had to be done. I have got to be the MOM and take care of this. Elijah will have two phases of braces most likely. His top pallatte is behind bottom pallette and pushing his bottom front teeth out. Read More

Seven
June 14th, 2010 by Our blog...
It’s been 7 years. In some ways it seems like Jeb and I have been together forever. In some ways it seems like time has flown by. In the past 7 years we’ve had a few ups and downs. I cannot imagine going through them with anyone else but Jeb. He’s my best friend. He’s seen me at my best Read More

Sunday
June 14th, 2010 by The Lutz Family Fun Page
Yesterday morning started out with a delicious breakfast of pancakes in bed. Duncan really wanted to make me breakfast on my birthday, but I was a little hesitant for him to cook without any adult supervision. So Brett sat in the kitchen while Duncan made pancakes. He did a good job!! We’ve Read More

June 11th, 2010 by Our blog...
• I had my recurring dream again about how Jeb doesn’t like me. In my dream I was begging him to like me. I kept saying, what if we’re friends for a while…don’t you think you could like me? He kept saying NO! After I told Jeb about my dream he said, “Why can’t you have recurring Read More

After yet another ear infection while we were in North Carolina last weekend, Lilybean saw her ENT here in DC and is now scheduled to receive tubes. My poor little love has had 8 infections in her little life, and has been on more antibiotics than most little babies should ever get. I’m Read More

In Which Connor Breaks Down
June 10th, 2010 by Connor's Song
This morning Connor was supposed to have his field day with school, but when we showed up we discovered it had been (mostly) canceled. So we drove to Pike Place Market instead and did a little bit of shopping. After Connor had his nap, I did a little more cleaning around the house in Read More

In Which Connor Is A Starveling
June 8th, 2010 by Connor's Song
Poor Connor. Last night around ten o’clock he threw up, and so I went in and turned down his feed. At least I thought I’d turned it down– I’d actually turned it off. So at about four in the morning he woke up with an empty tummy and refused to go back to sleep. Read More

Disney World
June 2nd, 2010 by Jazzie and Tahlia
Well, we have just finished day three at Disney World and we are having a great time. Our days are busy, but we have been balancing out the craziness of the parks with some relaxing at the pool. The girls have been staying up late every night, but hey, it’s vacation! After arriving at our Read More

The Power of Love
May 30th, 2010 by Sneak Peek: Raising A Special Child
Day in and day out I write about the things on my mind and occasionally, I write about the things on my heart. It probably seems more so the latter lately because I am having to make difficult decisions about Austin’s medical care that are complicated and risky. Sometimes the risk is Read More

Mo Fo the Brain Tumor
May 25th, 2010 by The Fabulous Running Mommy
My blog has sat idly as I’ve run mile after mile on the treadmill and pounded out reps and sets until I’ve lost count on the gym weight machines. I’ve counted calories and stopped drinking beer completely. My reward? I’ve lost 2″ on my waist and no longer have to Read More

Tuesday
May 25th, 2010 by The Lutz Family Fun Page
I stayed up until 2am last night getting work done. Jason really doesn’t like me to work. Then I woke up at 5:30am with Jason crying. He wasn’t ready to get up so we got him to go back to sleep. The problem is I have an ear infection. I know because I couldn’t lie down, it hurt Read More

You Can’t Imagine…
May 25th, 2010 by Our Little Hero...
You can’t imagine what it would be like to have a child born with significant and severe medical problems and being diagnosed with CHARGE Syndrome. You can’t imagine what it would be like to only have your baby in your home for 2 weeks out of 7 months of his life. You can’t Read More
