		<title>Thank Goodness!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Phew. Crisis averted. When I found out we were moving to Japan, there were many question I asked myself. Where would we live? Would I have a job? Would we take out dog, Paul? Will I ever be able to find pants that go past my knees? As we started working on the details of [...]]]></description>

		<title>From the Pit of Despair&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been waiting for this. I knew it was coming. I had evaded it all fall&#8230;but this weekend&#8230;it found me. Illness. Thankfully, it wasn&#8217;t much more than a bad sore throat/a slight fever/ and chills. And the first symptoms came on Sunday morning, and now, Monday night, I&#8217;m already feeling MUCH better. But boy, does [...]]]></description>

Yes, I&#8217;ve skipped right over the Hubby coming back from deployment, a cross-country trip to visit three families in two weeks, the boys&#8217; first Christmas, our first Navy move, my throwing a party at work for 170 people [...]]]></description>

		<title>One mom, two babies, three hours, 30,000 feet</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was bound to happen. I wanted to leave California to go to Missouri to see my family. With my babies. Have a mentioned that my husband is gone right now?

		<title>Your Votes Needed!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Drumroll please&#8230;the boys first Halloween costume: A week after Halloween and those wigs still crack me up! Well, actually they were just blue boas hot glued onto baby caps. It worked out great, they were really light, and because they were baby caps, they weren&#8217;t itchy at all. The boys actually liked wearing them! Now [...]]]></description>

		<title>Putting in perspective</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As you know, usually I post about my latest baking or decorating endeavor or (more frequently as of late) the boys. But I just had to share this little moment in my life, because it really got to me the other day&#8230; I&#8217;m not usually one to hand out cash to people asking for money [...]]]></description>

		<title>Six Months!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well who knew that with my husband deployed, a full time job, and twins I wouldn&#8217;t have time to blog? I knew it had been a bit, but considering the last blog post was when the boys turned five months and now they are SIX MONTHS, it really has been a while (that&#8217;s a month [...]]]></description>

		<title>Five Months!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today the boys are FIVE MONTHS OLD! I really can&#8217;t believe it&#8230;it seems like just yesterday my mom was driving me to the hospital! Sorry I don&#8217;t have many stats, because they don&#8217;t have another check-up until 6 months, but they are growing like weeds! They&#8217;re still long and lanky without much pudge, but look [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After the Hubby gets back from his deployment early next year, This American Wife (and family) is moving to Japan (I&#8217;m still a little giddy every time I say that).
