Boobs

*As the title of this post states this post is about my boobs. If you don’t want to read about them, stop reading =)
I have stopped breast-feeding for 5 days at this point and my boobs are obviously very engorged and very sore. Even though I had weened Ethan down to one feeding a day, I am [...]

The Armpit of Charleston

That would be Goose Creek!
If that isn’t enticing enough we also have the AF planes that fly over every 2 hours ridiculously low, trains every few hours that only blow their horns at night and a paper mill that smells worse than the plant that makes dog food in McDade.
You know you want to visit =)

Eyes

During a very long morning with the boys, I decided we all deserved a little break and wanted to put in Incredibles. Ayden is obsessed with it and I knew it would be a huge treat! I mentioned this before his nap and told him I needed to find it but after nap we could [...]
