Damn you, sleep!

So, the other night, I was up 3 or 4 times dealing with Desmond crying and being in pain. Honestly, I hate those stupid teeth. They have been causing Desmond so much pain and I [...]
One of the things that I have always loved about kids is when they sleep with their booties in the air. I love seeing their little butts high in the air, and was so excited for the day Desmond would do this. So, imagine my joy when I checked on Des during his nap the [...]

My sweet boy,
I cannot believe that you are going to be 8 months old on Saturday. It feels like just yesterday I was rubbing my belly, asking you to please hurry up and get here. And now, here you are, crawling all over the house, pulling books off the shelf.

About this blog
My name is Mallory. I’m a socially awkward person and really stink at making small talk. It’s something I’m working on, but if we ever meet in person, I apologize in advance for all the uncomfortable silences. I love dirty jokes – the dirtier the better. So, when we meet and I’m being awkward, tell me a dirty joke and I’ll get more comfortable.
I’m married to Ricky. He’s a firefighter/paramedic. We’ve known each other since I was 12 and have been a couple since I was 16. He’s really silly and I love that about him. He makes me happy. I really like him.
We had a baby in 2009. His name is Desmond and we love him. He’s amazing and we basically think he’s one of the greatest kids in the world.
In 2011, we had identical twin girls, Scarlett and Isla. We also think they are amazing and they are the two other greatest kids in the world.
This blog is meant to be a chronicle of our life together.
