First of all, we will no longer be updating the Pinks & Blues Girls blog - but don’t worry, we’re still blogging, and all our old posts can still be found here!
From here on out, we’re just going to be […]

We’ve been home for 3 days.
3 whole days.
And William, Alexander and Benjamin are just in LOVE with their brother. In LOVE! As a parent, this is the most beautiful sight to see. Your children loving each other. Especially the newest sibling!
But it must be said… it has been absolutely hilarious listening […]

Stars.
My best friend Bernadette believes in stars. Stars bring comfort and light. Stars reflect earth’s dreams. Stars are God’s promise of morning.
And stars are reminders that her dad is watching and guiding from heaven.
Tonight, there is a star-garden filling the entire universe. Twinkling stars. Diamond stars. Wishing stars. […]

I make absolutely sure that the pajamas are given on the actual birth-day, so the […]

Less than 5 weeks to go.
Matthew is working crazy hours right now.
Knowing full well that 3 boys, all 4 and under, are non-stop…
Having Mom and Dad come over this morning, cook breakfast and occupy the kids from 6 am to 8:30 am… while I took a (gasp!) glorious shower.
Yes, PRICELESS.

(Thanks Mom and Dad. Is […]

I don’t know why I’m always so surprised… because my mom has bought me 3 special “coming home from the hospital outfits” for each of my 3 boys.
And her tradition continues with Henry.
With 5 weeks and counting… I was greeted this morning with the first gift of his coming home outfit. Talk about getting […]

Well, in this case, a 2004 Subaru Forester.
I must admit that as I write, my heart is as heavy as the hard chromium on a catalytic converter.
I had to take my mom’s car from her. I had to take her last symbol of eighty-three years of independence. I had to take the most […]

We expected rain all week in New England for Mother’s Day.
So you can imagine my delight when I opened my eyes at the usual 6:45am and sun was peeking through my bedroom windows!
But where was my husband?
Downstairs making coffee, breakfast and (gasp!) cleaning the kitchen before bringing up the boys and the news that I […]
