Well, at least the bunny didn’t ask them what they wanted in their Easter baskets… (And it must be awful hot for that bunny, under all that fur.)
Carrie had today off from school, and Denis had the day off from work, so we took a family trip to the Strong Museum. After a quick carousel ride (for Carrie and Denis) we headed to the butterfly garden, where Carrie got to hold a butterfly on the back of her hand and Anna had [...]
Today was “Wear Your PJs to School Day” at the preschool. Last year, Carrie and I had plans to meet Uncle Michael for lunch, and she refused to entertain the notion of changing into daytime clothes after school. So, wisely knowing when to pick my battles, I let her spend the entire day in her [...]

We’ve decided that in 2015, we’re going to have to celebrate Pi day by eating lots of pie!
Dear Anna, Yesterday you turned eight months old. Time is just flying by around here! I think it’s just that you’re learning or trying new things every day now and you’re changing so quickly that I can barely keep up. You are now quite proficient at crawling – you went from commando crawling to hands [...]
