Two weeks ago I posted about our newest addition. I’m happy to report that he’s doing great. Here’s how he spends his day: He likes the sunny spot on the couch in the playroom. There’s an occasional stretch. And then he’s right back to his nap… When he needs something he’ll come up to theContinue reading “Dino’s Day”

There’s nothing like the smell of gingerbread. Yesterday one of my friends came home to the scent of gingerbread baking and posted a thank you note to her husband on facebook. I thought that was so cute! It really does welcome you in. We love to make gingerbread in our house and my oldest daughterContinue reading “Gingerbread”
