Why Life is More Important than Blogging

Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of very successful blogger friends out there. But I've decided not to be one of them. Maybe I'll post a picture or a story here and there for those of you who love me and care, but the truth is THIS:

Nikolas Jack Benedict, born Feb 12th 2013 at home. Our smallest yet at 9#3oz.

Our family right after NJ was born

Sleeping peacefully this morning at 2 months old

is infinitely more important than blogging.

Also, we're moving to North Carolina in a few months to live on a farm and generally abandon the indoor life for awhile. More on that soon.

About Us

Brittany and Joey were married on January 24th, 2009. Little Charlotte came out to play on November 4th of that year, and Beatrice followed 19 months later on June 10th 2011. We're having a blast, enjoying all the ups, and even some of the downs, of marriage and family life. We love our Catholic faith, and love our family, and love each other, and we're so excited to share all that and more with you!

Joey is a self-employed ceramic artist who teaches general art and ceramics to people of all ages, and he enjoys sharing his new artsy exploits as well as discussing how to live frugally and resourcefully in whatever situation you find yourself in. If you met us on the street, you'd find him either picking through somebody's dumpster for goodies, or covered in clay from a day in the studio. Or both.

Brittany was a social worker before becoming a full-time stay at home mom when Charlotte was born in 2009. She enjoys sharing her Real Food kitchen experiments, as well as her attempts at frugal mothering/house keeping/sewing and crafting, plus a little bit of social responsibility on the side. She has her own artsy side that comes out every now and then as well. If you met her on the street, she'd probably be screaming at a toddler to stay out of the road, while carrying a baby in a sling on her hip, and a diaper bag full of cloth diapers on the other, and she'd probably be wearing a homemade skirt because she never has time to go clothes shopping for herself!

Charlotte is a 2 year old girl, and so her favorites right now include"Blueberry the blue bear", digging in the dirt and smothering her little sister with kisses.

Beatrice likes milk. The Old Fashioned kind, of course. And that's pretty much it.
