Elizabeth at 7 Weeks

Will

One of my friends took a cute picture of Will.

A Maid

I'm reconsidering my decision to get rid of the maids. I just found it most stressful to have to clean up before they got here or else we risked having our stuff put in a most creative locations. I also found it stressful when they were not on time because I have a rather inflexible schedule to follow. However, I may just change my mind, if I can get organized enough. Sherry, who lost her son, Logan, on Saturday, told people to go have fun with their families on Sunday, in honor of Logan. I wanted to do something special, but was completely overwhelmed with all the work I had to do (granted I have a six week old also). Maybe a maid would ease up my work and let me spend more quality time with the kiddos.

What I Love About My Children

My children are so much more wonderful than I could ever hope to be. When I told them Logan passed away, they wanted to make him cards and put them on balloons so they could get to Heaven. Then, they decided that he needed toys in Heaven, so they taped their own toys to his cards, though it might make it a little more difficult for a helium balloon to take to Heaven.

Looking Back

What the hell happened in those two weeks between the middle of August and the beginning of September 2010? The son, Logan, of my friend, Sherry, was diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumor; my friend, Benji, one year older than I, died of cancer; and my mother in law finally succumbed to CREST syndrome. Sweet Logan passed away today. I'm devastated. I don't know what else to say.

How to Remember Our Names

This is how I was thinking I should tell people our names in order for them to more easily remember when we first meet:

The first three are easy- The "Chrises"- Chris, Christie, & Christopher
The next two- Billy Bob (William & Robert)
The last two- The Duchess of Cambridge (Catherine Elizabeth (Middleton), though I spelled my Katherine with a K)
