Merry Christmas to us! We have a baby in the family again!

 It was a busy holiday in Kentucky.  Had a few bumps, thankfully no bruises...

and the baby made everything awesome!!

We did a lot of lounging...



got silly



and had our annual visit to the Christmas house!


Gwen and Ruben (Ruben's first Christmas experience - LOL)



We saw Santa!



How the person taking this picture didn't say anything is beyond me!



Lots of baby snuggles... T was the Lewy whisperer!



This little angel charmed us all!!


I think Grammy is wrapped around his finger!


And he loved GG Joe's sauce! 

FIST BUMP!


I tried my usual shenanegans!


he sort of played along!


"Feeding at the zoo" was the best part of our day - we gathered around like ding dongs just to watch!


I mean... come on!


Lewy loves Poppy


But he and T have a thing....


These songs are now earworms...forever stuck in my brain!



We ended the trip with a lot of cards...

and some spoons.. I got killed here...

BUT beat everyone in Dutch Blitz... even with one arm behind my back - LITERALLY!


We will miss this little one... and I can't wait to get to San Diego this summer!


Merry Christmas to all.. and to ALL a Goodnight!

Love, Lewy Claus

(some of my best work right there!)

Goodbye to Uncle Johnny

A 6am call is never "normal" and I knew something was wrong. My poor mama had to call and tell me that her brother, the patriarch of our family... my Uncle John was dying. Brain bleed. 911. Ambulance. Hospital. Aunt Jeanne. Can't go visit. Covid. Ventilator. I heard all of those words. None of them were sinking in. Too surreal. He was fine. Too heartbreaking, my Aunt just lost her sister TOO OVERWHELMING. I CAN'T GO BE WITH MY FAMILY. Then the call came that he was off of life support, and he died. My Uncle John, big burly Uncle Johnny... was gone. My Aunt Jeanne posted on Facebook. So I posted... then Auntie T... And then mom posted... and our hearts broke.  Just broke.   Every time we talk  - we just can't make sense of it. I know in time.. it will sink in.  He will not be there at the airport when I get home next trip. He won't be at Christmas or at the table eating sauce.  He's gone. BUT I WILL REMEMBER. I will tell the stories and I will keep him ali...

The big D in the Big D was never the plan...

Today is a sad day to write.  Divorce. Truly sad! And a day I NEVER thought would happen to me... again. I found out, the divorce is final.  Your world Tristan is forever altered.  And I did that. I was part of that and I am truly sorry.  Your dad and I were married for a little over 15 years. We were SO different but had so much in common too.  But when the things we had in common all disappeared, so did we.  And for that, I'm truly sorry. We tried Re|Engage twice... two years of our life. We tried years of counseling but what we each needed, the other just couldn't seem to meet. So I chose to leave and keep us safe. I prayed for YEARS and finally knew, I gave all I could and it takes two to mend.  It took two to break.. but it ALWAYS takes two to mend and Daddy just wasn't willing. He said no. But, I will do my very best to honor your dad and be respectful of him.  Our #1 priority is to parent you and parent you well.   I know this doesn't ...
