Falling in Love at Five Months
Ten things Mama loves about Aidan this September 1)Snuggling him to sleep- how he pulls you as close as he can possibly get, snuggles his soft little head under your chin. He holds on tight- your shirt or hair in his tight little fist- and wiggles until he is just Continue Reading
Fall Begins at Wiard’s
We were really blessed this year that David’s company picnic was held just ‘around the corner’ at Wiard’s Orchard. We’d checked it out last year but found it a bit pricey, so when the event came, we were really quite excited for the opportunity to go. After a yummy picnic Continue Reading
