Our Thankful Tree
This is not an original idea, I copied it from my friend Brooke but it’s a good one so it’s worth sharing. This is just a simple way to help us focus on the many blessing in our lives. All … Continue reading
Talia {Day 12} – and Simon
This is how she prefers to sleep if she is not swaddled. I am pretty sure this is how here hands were in utero for most of my pregnancy. At our 20 week scan the sonographer had a difficult time … Continue reading

Usually I am very into the 4th of July. I love the food, I love the parade, and I love the fireworks. However, this year I just couldn’t get into it. I think it’s probably had a lot to do … Continue reading
