We just got back from our annual beach trip birthday extravaganza! And, it was amazing. Since big parties are a bit too much for Logan we head to the beach instead (oh, I cannot express how much I LOVE this!). We are usually there for her actual birthday, but it fell on the week of… Read More My Little Sea Shells
In April we took the kids to Disney World, and guess what…we survived! We had been talking about going for a while, and decided to just do it. Those of you that plan a year in advance, I envy you. We had a small window to plan it, which I wrote about HERE. Yes,… Read More Disney…We Survived!

A clinic specifically for Pitt Hopkins was organized by a fellow PTHS mom, and founder of the Pitt Hopkins Research Foundation. It was fantastic. We had a little over a month to start planning…and stressing. We needed to bring all medical… Read More Logan Takes Us To Atlanta!
