I'm Erin Jo. I'm thinking, writing, dreaming, mothering, loving, living, praising, BLESSED to be Fiona to my Shrek and Mommy to my four amazing kiddos.

Shrek is "like an onion with many layers" but has a heart of gold. He's my husband and my friend, and we just get better all the time.

Lily is my first baby and only girl. She's smart, funny, tall and kind. Keeping up with this girl is a challenge and a joy. She's terrific!

Max is one part ogre, two parts lover and all boy! Our little man has a temper but gives the best hugs of anyone I know!

Colby is as ornery as he looks. He flirts shamelessly, even with strangers. He's all mouth and curls and the loudest by far.

Luke is the baby of the family, but holds his own. He's happy and adorable. And he's a terrible sleeper. =)

Birth Eve / Truths

January 26th, 2011

Today I learned that pedicures at home with three children are better than pedicures at salons. Seriously… I got the job done, stayed relaxed through the whole thing and made some awesome memories. Don’t believe me? Check it out…





And now that I have posted photos of the boys getting pedicures, I’ll post one of me, with morning hair, no make-up and the “Big Belly” as Lily started to call me tonight….


A couple more truths for you tonight:
– I’m due at the hospital in eight hours.
– When I rocked Colby to sleep tonight and sang a couple choruses of “I’ll love you forever, I’ll like you for always / As long as I’m living, My baby you’ll be,” I cried.
– I’m ready. I’m only a tad nervous, mostly because I’m so close to go time, and knowing I need a bath, a journal and a good night’s sleep.
– I have faith that all will go well, that God will be by my side.

Goodnight and Godspeed, little man!
