I am so happy to be back after a month and a half and have so much to share! It’s been quite an adventure at my house! Only 4 days after Stryder Quinn was born we celebrated Thanksgiving.
This year’s Thanksgiving was a first for both of my boys. To clarify, they are only 11 months apart and that makes them my handsome little Irish twins! A week and a half later we celebrated Tilton’s first birthday.
I never thought I could be so happy and so sad at the same time. He melts my heart with his spunky personality and crazy smarts. How did a year go by so quickly? A week later we celebrated my birthday (we have 4 birthdays in our family within 4 weeks!) and went to see some Christmas lights and visit Santa. Let’s just say that Tilton did NOT like Santa!! I hope that will change by next year! We also decided to do a fun family photo shoot for Christmas cards.
We never got around to printing them, but did send them electronically. A week later was Christmas. Tilton and I woke up sick. This was his first sickness ever. It was a terrible way to spend Christmas, but he was a trooper and still opened all his presents and kept a smile on his face. We then spent all of last week recovering from this terrible bug which soon spread to my little Stryder. During this time we also had many appointments, photo sessions, family dinners, Tilton’s first dentist appointment, holiday parties, etc. Needless to say I have been so crazy busy that I can’t believe it’s already January. Many days were just a blur. I underestimated how crazy and challenging it would be, but I wouldn’t trade my boys for the world!
Thank goodness for family and schedules!
Anyway, I am so happy to be back and to catch up with everyone! I hope you all had some wonderful holidays and are ready for the new year!
P.S. This last picture is a picture of each of the boys at the same age and in the same outfit. We posed them similar and sent the pictures to many friends and family. Very few could tell who was who!! This takes Irish twins to a whole new level!

Precious boys. You will enjoy many holiday seasons with those too. Energy drinks. You will need energy drinks.

Thank you Darlene! Being so busy seems to help with that. I won't need a gym because I will be chasing and lifting them both!
Thank you Winnie! Tilton and I are finally feeling better but the baby is still sick. He mainly struggles to breath because he is so stuffy. We are hoping he will get better soon because his gasping for air scares me to death. Happy New Year to you and your family as well.
Thank you Deborah and Bridge!
