Tuesday, May 10th, 2011In the six years we’ve lived in Tennessee, we’ve seen some pretty crazy stuff. Ice storms, a flood, tornadoes, etc. This summer will be a whole new expierence for us! It’s called the 13 year cicada. That means every 13 years huge swarms of cicada leave the ground to mate, shed their shells, and reproduce- [...]

Monday, May 9th, 2011The past few months Atticus’ skin has been doing really well. Mark and I even went as far as saying he was over the eczema and now he was having a behavioral issue. You see, when you’ve scratched yourself for comfort for months on end, it becomes comforting even when you don’t itch. When Atticus [...]
My Mother’s Day
Sunday, May 8th, 2011This weekend was a ton of fun! Mark and Atticus had all kinds of awesome things planned for me. Of course, we went to the Farmer’s Market Saturday morning.

LBG and The Hair
Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011When Atticus was born, Mark and I made the decision that we wouldn’t make cosmetic modifications to his body without his consent. He is a person too and has the right to make decisions as to what happens to him. For us, it is simply a form of respect. This includes his hair. He has [...]
Nashville Night Market
Monday, May 2nd, 2011This weekend was a busy weekend for us! My sister, Anna Marie, and her boyfriend, Corey, came to visit from South Carolina so we had lots of fun outings around the city. Saturday morning was the Music City Marathon so getting to the farmer’s market would be a little difficult so we decided to check [...]
