I'm trying to remain optimistic.
And, I'm going to keep saying it. It's hard this parenting thing; 
We had visitors today and Jimmy couldn't have been happier. Two of Jim's brothers and his nephew and great nephews came over to ride dirt bikes, play basketball and have a bbq. The Doodle loved being outside watching it all and being a part of [...] 
Watching our little maniac arc around the house all day destroying things has brought me to wonder what he might be like in five years, or ten years or fifteen years. Will he always be throwing things on the floor and tearing books? Will we have [...]

This is what tired looks like. And sick too.
OK, so you might not be able to tell in this particular picture because of the noticable Pusses on the Family's faces but our family is really loving our new little eating area. Maybe they're just a little irritated that I jumped up to grab the' [...]
