Our family has a little extra to be thankful for today. My cousin (the one who had the baby shower a couple of weeks ago) had her baby this morning. A little early, but healthy. We’re so happy to welcome Charles (already nick-named “baby Charlie” by Carolyn) to the family!

Happy Halloween! My brother got married today! Welcome to the family, Genevra! Carrie was their flower girl, and Anna was…as well-behaved as you’d expect a 15 month old to be at a wedding. Which is to say, not very. But the ceremony (at least, what I got to hear) was lovely, and the dinner was [...]

Nana and Poppy were up for a visit this weekend and left this morning. The girls had such a good time while they were here. Carrie and Nana were pretty much inseparable. Luckily, we’ll see them again in a few weeks for Anna’s birthday party!

With the almost daily rain we’ve had for the past few weeks, I didn’t manage to get the DADDDY pictures done yet. But we still wanted to say “Happy Father’s Day” to Denis, Grandpa and Poppy!

My mom had to have her appendix out last night…apparently it was too cute. Hopefully she’ll feel better soon – she’s been in a bit of pain lately and didn’t know why.

Today is my Dad’s birthday. We didn’t get a chance to see him today, although Carrie did get to wish him a happy birthday on the phone. Happy birthday, Daddy! In other news, it was “Pirates and Princesses” day at school today. The kids got to wear a costume to school, so Carrie spent the [...]
