This summer we've been enjoying visits nearly everyday from this Mama and her babies (all three)! I have yet to get a decent shot of the four together without disturbing their late afternoon nibbling. (Even this shot with one baby is questionable.) As an accomplished hostess, I so want to make them feel ...

This post comes to us from a regular reader of Taken. She has asked to remain anonymous. I can respect that AND all that she has to say here. Though not my own experience, I can certainly relate. Thank you, Darling. You know who you are! Sometimes I'm still sort of surprised that I ...

I've been meaning to let you know that just in case I should disappear from the blogosphere for a few days or start not answering your comments via email, that means I may be hospitalized and delivering Baby. Even though we are only at 33 weeks, we've had some strange ...

Ah, yes, swimming. The epitome of summer fun! How our little mermaids love the water! Please, do not hold me responsible for the tacky animal print/pink butterfly swimsuits.
