How do you solve a problem like...

Take this test!
OK, so maybe you never went straight from a convent to motherhood, but it's a safe bet that you encourage and support your family in much the same way that Maria did. Playful and yes, sometimes a little mischievous, you tend to lead by doing, and you always make sure to help your children achieve their goals without actually doing it for them.


You inspire your family because you always find creative ways to make even the most mundane chores or homework problems seem fun and important. And you want others to try to find the beauty in life — whether it's from art, music, books, or adventure. Those are just a few of your favorite things.

A warrior at heart...


You Are Mulan!

Strong and spirited. You're no one's girly girl; actually you are very determined person with a strong sense of self. Never let go of that! The only thing that equals your sense of self is your family, but the traditions of society can always be bent to protect something or someone you love.

Wii Will Rock You!

Meet our new obsession!  We went over to our friends' (Angie and Ben) house tonight for a fun-filled night of ROCK BAND!  We have Guitar Hero, but Rock Band adds in a few new twists...singing and drums.  I really love to play the drums...I would like the singing part better had I known the songs.  I guess we will just have to get one of our own so that I can learn them and then be able to Rock out!!!  We found out that they are releasing ROCK BAND for the WII on June 22nd.  I might just have to pre-order it...(if I can talk my frugal husband into it)!  We will see!  Thanks Angie and Ben for a super fun night and for introducing us to another thing that will distract us and take away our hard earned moola!!!

A 2-month old Couch Potato!

I can hardly believe that our little Logan Christopher is already 2 months old!  The journey so far has been exhausting but definitely rewarding!  The past couple of days, Logan has been talking (cooing) to me and smiling a lot!  It is so fun to see his little personality start to shine through.  Even better, Logan has been skipping a feeding at night, so now I only get up once!  It is so nice.  It is amazing how just a couple extra hours of sleep can make such a difference.  Logan goes in for his 2 month check-up next Tuesday, but just looking at him and holding him, I can tell that he is a fatty!!!  I estimate he will weigh around 12 pounds!  Not too shabby... I love chubby babies!  Tracen has really taken to his little brother lately as well.  Logan is the only person in our house that gets kisses...so who do you think is the favorite?  Whenever I put Logan in his bouncy seat, Tracen goes over and plays with the toys and jabbers at Logan as if he can understand him.  I can't wait until they grow up and play (or fight) with each other.  I was super nervous that I wouldn't be able to be a mom of 2, but I love it!  I am finally starting to get the hang of being home all day (because at first, I was really bored!)  I know that in 3 months when I have to go back to school, that I will have a really hard time!

Let's go ride a trike!

Logan's Blessing

This weekend Chris blessed Logan.  We were so lucky to have almost all of our family attend and our friends Meagan, Mike and Brayden.  Thanks to everyone who came.  We really appreciate everything everyone does for us!
