The 1984 National League Championship Series was played between the San Diego Padres and the Chicago Cubs. San Diego won the series three games to two to advance to the World Series. The 1984 NLCS was the first postseason series EVER for the Padres since the franchise's beginning in 1969. Because Katie Ann Blair arrived in the world in the middle of the series, her father hence forth referred to her as Katie Cub Buster.

Dance with me
I may not take too many dance classes anymore, but I love that I always have dance partners at my beck and call. The boys love dancing in the kitchen with me! There's nothing better in the world (besides a good cup of coffee) than dancing. It just makes everyone happier. Happy Thursday!
The boys already know about afternoon coffee time!
Just a random trip to the Atlanta Children's Museum. Our first time, definitely won't be our last!
Here's two T-bones for you daddy. I know you like meat!
He always sticks out his tongue if he's really jazzed or really concentrating.
Now that we have Levi's spitting up down to a science, and we all know exactly when to "grab the bucket," it is a little better. But we go back to GI doc, as well as the boys' annual ped appointments next week. Hopefully we can get a continued plan of attack for my littlest man's eating regime. All his other therapy seems to be progressing well though. We even get to add more OT through our Babies Can't Wait program! So thankful for great therapists! Meanwhile, we are all just counting down to Silas' birthday this Sunday because he literally asks every day if it's his birthday yet. There will be fish, sharks, penguins, cake, ice cream, and plenty of dancing!
I have had so many people thank me for my honesty on this blog lately. I haven't really thought about my level of truthfulness until those remarks of gratitude were given. I think I naturally wear my heart on my sleeve, and thanks to my upbringing, I often hear the term TMI, which just means I'm obviously not scared to express myself. However, I also believe that when you are going through something difficult, it's much easier to be raw and real in front of others, even complete strangers. Often times, it is these "real" moments that bridge the gap between hearts and allow us to live truth. I must confess, this marathon is really all over the place. It's like I hit mile 7, and I can't believe I'm only at mile 7! This past weekend, I felt covered in prayer, peace, and love. Matthew and I enjoyed a much needed date night, our little Levi enjoyed a quiet and restful weekend, and our big boy had a blast at our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt. I really ju...
There is pain in this world. It comes in different forms. Physical pain, emotional pain, frustrating pain, confused pain, displaced pain, short-lived pain, numbing pain, excruciating pain, sincere pain, unexpected pain. Yet, through it all, there is joy. How? Where? Why is there joy in a world filled with such pain? Is is true joy? Is it fabricated or medicated joy? Is it temporary joy or will it fade with the next whisper of pain? No. I have felt a joy that far outweighs my pain. It's a joy that doesn't make sense mixing with a pain that culminates in reality. It's a joy that couldn't be concocted by even the most elaborate of artists. As I've experienced some of the most intense physical pain during some of the most intense emotional pain, I have noticed and experienced some of the purest forms of joy and peace that cannot be watered down by logic. We lost our second child this week. At just seven weeks old, our precious baby gets to escape a world o...
