October 9, 2011

Gigi started her new year of preschool this month! We love Gigi’s school and this year it was made even better because one of Gigi’s best friends, “Sofia Our Neighbor” (who we used to live next door to) started attending as well. We went to an open house where Gigi got to check out her [...]

I’m a little behind on blogging (have you noticed?)– only like 2 months, no biggie! Here’s a little of what we were up to in August… Our Summer Schedule helped the days go smoother. Teething.

Our Dear Friends

October 7, 2011

We had so much fun when the Dears came to town. We miss them dearly (and yes, I’ll keep on using that pun forever probably) and were so grateful to catch up and have our kids play together for the weekend. For those of you who don’t know, Beth was one of my first friends [...]
