I know of no one who is as excited about holidays, especially birthdays, than Crew. His 5th birthday fell on a Sunday and he couldn’t wait to get through church and celebrate. He opened a few gifts and showed off the charts excitement for each one. We went to the…
The first week back to school after Christmas break has historically been rainy and this year was no exception. Our “fall” comes in January and the trees lose their leaves for a short season. Crew and Finn hopped on their scooters in pajamas and rain boots on a rainy morning…
Crew waited years for it to be his turn to play a sport. After all the hype of his first practice and getting dressed 11 hours in advance, the practice got lightning-ed out. Even though day one was a bust, Crew was still all smiles because he got to pick…
Some costumes are too good to retire after one year and that’s how Crew felt about the pirate costume. He wouldn’t consider dressing up as anything else. That made my job easier too. Win win. If only we had inflatables like some of our neighbors, then all of Crew’s Halloween…

Our boys look forward to their birthday dates with intense anticipation and Troy is so good to schedule work from home days so we can make them happen.Crew patiently waited for his promised birthday bubbles since oh, January. The bubbles were a hit with the kids standing in the longest…
There was one week between spring break and Easter and Crew’s birthday fell within that week. It was basically a nonstop party. Crew had his heart set on having a pirate pool party months before his big day. He was a pirate for Halloween and his love for all things…
This boy has expressions for days and I just couldn’t narrow them down. Four things I love about Crew: He uses his full name when anyone asks him what his name is, but he blends it into one word; “CrewToddTanner.” He says a few words incorrectly and I can’t bring…
