Iowa Blogger Chasing Twins, Living Life, & More
Since the twins have entered middle school, they have been exploring new activities and interests. Last year, Nathan and Lucas joined band and quickly fell in love even more with all things music. Lucas started on the trombone and Nathan, the alto sax, although he has since moved up to tenor sax. They’ve also had […]
2020 is over and that means it’s finally time to celebrate my beautiful baby boys! We’ve been through it all in the past year and remote learning has been something we all have worked to adjust to. I am so proud of you both each and every day! Happy Birthday my Sweet Boys! View this […]
With decent weather, we’ve gotten out of the house to goof off. Capturing the moments like this is what I love.
It’s been awhile since we have posted a Wordless Wednesday but I decided why not share it with the #WayBackWednesday I shared to Instagram! View this post on Instagram Wow! I’m getting ahead for #waybackwednesday and can’t believe how little the twins were! Look at my happy boys! ? ? . . . . . […]
It is so hard for me to believe that 7 years ago, my sweet and ornery little boys joined the world. You bring so many smiles to everyone in your lives and I am proud of how hard you both work to learn and keep growing! Happy Birthday Ham and Cheese! View this post on […]
Sometimes in this house, a simple event can become an event for the entire family. Nathan and Lucas have begun losing baby teeth recently and Nathan had a permanent tooth come in before a baby tooth came out. After talking to our dentist, we decided we had to be goofy to get Nathan wiggling that […]
Six years ago at this time, I was sitting in Labor and Delivery with the strong knowledge that two little boys were on the way. To put it simply, I was terrified. I had no idea how I would do it but now, I wouldn’t change any of it. I remember details like it was […]
There is nothing more fun than having a birthday party for your child. However, when you are the parent of multiples, it can be a challenge to have a party that does not take you all day to pull off, and that makes each child feel special. It’s always a challenge to keep your kids […]
We had a dental checkup about a month ago and sure enough, Lucas had two loose teeth. It just doesn’t seem possible. The twins were ornery after speech therapy today and needed to take a nap. They were fighting that idea and sure enough, “Mommy, there’s something in my mouth.” as he pushed his tooth […]
As I dropped my kids off for their final day of school, the emotions hit me a bit. The twins began HeadStart right after turning three. We all struggled with this “new”. Nathan and Lucas would fight tooth and nail for Mommy to not leave and there were lots of tears. We had very few […]

When I found out I was pregnant with twins, my head started spinning. There are so many things to take into consideration when you are preparing for a baby; you find yourself speechless when prepping for two new little ones to join your family at the same time. While I still find myself learning new […]
As a mom of twins, there is never a dull moment. We’ve hit road bumps and hurdles in the almost five years since Lucas and Nathan were born. In those five years, I’ve also learned that I will always be the number one advocate for my children. I’ve been proactive in ensuring the twins have […]
Potty training. We all experience it as a parent. While I’ve been at this milestone before, my challenge is totally new this time around. Why? I’m potty training twin boys! As a single mom to these two little guys, I can tell you, we are all learning when it comes to potty training and we’ve […]
This month, Nathan had his second surgery. While both were oral surgeries, this one was a bit longer and with different anesthesia, etc. After a regular dental checkup, it was discovered that both twins likely have cavities on the interior sections of their teeth;think where teeth touch teeth. A bit heartbroken, our dentist told me […]
