just our day to day life
Just a few thoughts from the week…none of which deserve a full post… Just like when driving, if you are a slow walker, you should stay to the right. I walk several blocks to/from my car for work and constantly get stuck by two people …
I found this post languishing in drafts from awhile ago, and decided I should finish it. I know a lot of people who’ve brought home babies recently, or who are about to, so I’ve been thinking about all of that newborn stuff lately. We also …
We had a 3 day weekend for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, so that’s always amazing! We played lots of “chase” and “king of the couch”. Jenson got a cold towards the end of the week – It stinks because I feel like we can’t …

I have to imagine that parenting was easier back in the day, because of what people didn’t know. That may sound like a weird statement, but hear me out. When a mom had a question 30 years ago, who did she turn to? Her mom/siblings, …
