  • Birthday Post

    Having a birthday this year is a good way to get me to post! I missed it one year and all my fans went crazy. And by “all my fans” I mean Steph, and by “went crazy” I mean she asked me several weeks later why I didn’t do a birthday post. It’s actually just […]

  • Photo Overload

    Here’s a post for the grandmas & grandpas & aunts & uncles.*This is the first weekend in 7 that we will not be out of town, having a birthday party/Father’s Day/Referral, doing a garage or consignment sale.

  • Asher Update

    First, a note to my other Holt Thai mamas who are “waiting to travel” (that’s what they call the torturous time between referral and homecoming): we got an update on Asher yesterday, but I heard that only a few files came through so far. The rest are supposed to come by the end of next […]
