This was the only picture in which Brianna was not bolting around the room. Yes – she is walking! The other two pictures are to demonstrate how clearly obsessed my daughter is with the tutu. She informed me last night she wanted pink hair. She put the tutu on her head, and I said “You …

Yesterday we went to meet baby Callum! Actually I got to meet him on his birthday which was October 17th, but Aly and Bri had not met him yet. It was so nice to hold a newborn that does not bolt out of your arms or talk back! Brianna was a little jealous of the …

We finished the half marathon and felt pretty good afterwards. The weather was amazing, it was cool and breezy, and perfect for running. We set out to finish and had a great run finishing in 2:24. My secret goal was to finish in about 2:30 so that was fantastic. It was awesome to have a …

This afternoon Aly, Brianna and I went to pick up a “new kitchen” Both girls have been playing a ton with our old one and it was really small and causing many tears in the morning. So thanks to Criagslist we found a new and bigger one, along with a picnic table. The best part, …
