Welcome to my very first blog post! I’m so glad you’re here.

I wanted to create a little space where I can share what’s going on in our lives, the funny things our kids say (because honestly, it’s daily), and all things related to these Bryan littles.

To kick things off, it feels right to start by sharing about the kids, who they are, and what they’re up to right now.

Naomi is 5½ and full of personality. She’s fun, spunky, and absolutely loves the spotlight. Performing is her thing. She’s currently in Year 1 (aka first grade, British-style), enrolled in gymnastics, and part of Singsational, which is an after-school singing and performance program she is obsessed with. She even takes 1-on-1 singing lessons. She’s still in speech therapy and truly thriving. If she’s not talking, she’s singing… and sometimes she’s doing both at once. I don’t know where she gets it from…

By the time you’re reading this, Link is about to turn 4! HOW did that happen?! He is all boy and all energy. He’s obsessed with Hot Wheels, monster trucks, and dinosaurs, attends preschool at a British school, talks nonstop, and considers throwing cars down the stairs a perfectly reasonable activity. The wall at the bottom of our stairs says otherwise! He is also the undisputed king of snacking.

Mark and I are soaking up these moments as they come and laughing at the endless things these kids say and do. I can’t wait to share our compilation of a running list of their random, hilarious quotes because they’re just too good not to document. Like most, we stay busy juggling work, keeping the kids entertained, and attempting to keep our household running smoothly. We also have some big goals for 2026, and I’m excited to see what this year holds for all of us.

I’ll wrap this up here because it’s currently 9:20 pm, I still have work to finish before bed, and puppy snuggles are calling my name.

Catch you in the next blog 🤍

Cheers,
Nicole
