school
a boring august recap.
the second half of summer flew past in a flash. i hit up some consignment sales for clothes for the annababy, who can still squeeze into 4t clothes, but they are quite short. i took her with me, and wound up purchasing a darth vader costume, which she insisted on wearing everywhere, much to the amusement […]

december. the first half.
december. so busy. we kicked it off this year with a park playdate on a beautiful day. hazel is currently in full wrecker mode. she prowls around the house, looking for opportunities. her favorite go-to’s is the book shelf. she is fast. and stealthy. went up to check on kids the other night before bedtime.
