This sleep thing is killing me. I know I know. This is possibly the most boring topic on earth. I KNOW. I have had to listen to myself for a whole MONTH now going on and on about sleep and...

He slept so badly last night. SO. BADLY. Before Phillip left for work we discussed which state-run homes we're willing to live in, should we lose our minds and need to be institutionalized. Jackson, of course, thought the entire conversation...

Well, internet, I've decided that four months bites. And I would tell you what it bites except this is a family website. My kid could not be cuter. That is not the issue. The issue is: my darling sweet-faced happy...
