An Update To Starting A Family
So a couple weeks ago I had a brain MRI because the last time I had one I was 20 months old. Getting a diagnosis so early in life means that your parents obviously know more about the details of your diagnosis until you decide you want to know for yourself. So now, at 30,…

Organizing A Small Kitchen
We moved into a rental house a few weeks ago and the house is quite small and everything is “efficiently spaced”.

We basically have a large house’s worth of kitchen items…

We’ve just gotten married. The buzz of excitement is still humming in our bodies. But now its been about a week and we’ve started getting back to your normal routine. It’s actually a huge wave of high and “not so high” emotions. For months and months we’d been planning and paying and couldn’t wait to…
Snowfall, Pumpkins & Hot Cocoa
Today, Becca and I had plans to go to a local pumpkin patch and then carve pumpkins. Our plans were almost foiled by a snowfall that came out of nowhere! It was a rain, sleet and snow mix and there were heavy winds. We wanted to make the most of Becca’s last night off of…
