[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]My friends have been telling me for a while that, ‘just wait, once your kids get older, it just gets harder to manage schedules!’ I haven’t exactly believed them, but this month I am now realizing how true of a statement that is. January is a pretty busy month for our family in general. We…
Lately, Violet has really been into reading Shel Silverstein’s Where the Sidewalk Ends. She has read through the entire book, and has now taken to reading it aloud to both myself and to Hayden. Her current favorite one is at the link below. Enjoy! https://goo.gl/photos/frkZD2gpvLiQkQwF6
This is a stop-motion video that I helped Violet to make. We made it in a few minutes. I took the pictures while she moved the cat. She was super excited about it so I hope we can make more intricate videos in the future.
This past Friday Violet and I went to her second daddy daughter dance. Weeks before the dance its self, Violet was super excited to go to the dance. I think the main reason was because she gets to eat desserts and snacks with her friends. The day of the dance, I picked her up early…
At dinner this evening, I had been talking/complaining about work with Mike and Ray. I was going on about some problems and potential things coming down the road with another organization.

The tooth fairy will be making a visit tonight. Yet again. This will be for tooth number three! Today, we were getting ready to go to one of my friend’s house for lunch and Violet came running into the kitchen, yelling, ‘hey look!! my tooth is loose!’ I took a feel and determined that it…
I’m a little behind on my posting duties. I carry my phone around taking pictures and videos of the kids with the intent to write all about the hilarious and adorable things they do. Mike has been a lot better at it than me. I’m going to do my best to recap some of my…
Some mornings are rough, especially the mornings when I have a deadline to be somewhere. This morning Violet had a dentist appointment so we needed to be at daycare by 7:30ish to get to the dentist on time. Lately the kids have been sleeping in until 6:30 or later. Violet has been sleeping in until…
