a weekly log of our everyday life
Somewhere along the way, we went from counting up to Baby R’s first birthday to counting down. It’s cliche, but…WHERE DID THE TIME GO!? Our brand new, tiny, newborn baby has somehow become a big baby. She’s reached and surpassed the age of the babies Cindy used to look at and think, “Wow, one day […]

It’s basically never ending visual stimulation. We’re having fun pretending Baby R enjoys the Olympics. And it’s nice to experience our first Olympics as a family! […]

Baby R’s first 4th of July! We really packed our weekend, visiting both sets of parents! This was our busiest weekend since having the baby. It felt a little like our pre-baby days, except it was waaaaay more tiring. It was a little stressful–driving with a baby & breaking our routine–but overall pretty fun! The […]
