Our little girl Lana is growing up fast while being on the road with mom and dad. She has traveled all over Virginia, Maryland, and even Ohio. During our smaller shows Natalie & I alone take care of her while we are performing, but during our bigger shows that involve big box illusions we hire extra help just to watch Lana. For over a year my uncle Freddy traveled with us to our resorts and other illusion shows to take care of Lana, but last month he got a new job that made it so he was unable to take off work to help us like he used to be able to. Luckily as stars lined up in our favor two girls from church (Caitlin & Jessica Hopkinson) had just said a couple weeks before Freddy left “we would love to baby sit anytime”. 
When Natalie & I have her, we pass her back & forth like clockwork. Since we average 400 shows a year we are used to the juggling now. In between shows we take her to malls, parks, pet shops and just about any other place you can think of to stretch her legs after being in the car all day. I knew having a baby on the road was going to be a lot of work, but the alternative would be sticking her in daycare and we really wouldn’t see her so we will just keep juggling because although it is a lot of work she is worth it…
