At least I think that’s how it goes. Irregardless, slowly but surely we are getting ready for the big day, we have our tree, our greenery, our wreaths and our stockings – with the most noticeable addition of our “plus one” this year. I joked with JJ that we couldn’t have any more kids (music…
So every year, around this time, JJ and I face off. At first, I thought it was nothing, just something that was small and insignificant. It didn’t represent much, it didn’t carry any weight, it wasn’t indicative of us and certainly didn’t make sense alongside anything else – but there it was, the elephant in…
Just like we have for at least the past ten years, we loaded everyone up in the car and headed to the mountains to find our “Christmas vacation” TA – DAAA tree. This year, the car was a bit more crowded with our adorable addition, Connor-man, and the two tons of baby gear that comes…

Finally, after getting the camera for father’s day – I can share with you what JJ does in his “spare” time. I especially appreciate this view (enjoying the ride, which appears somewhat perilous at times to me, from the comfort of my couch) – if only I could burn calories that way.
I’m not sure what we were thinking, but we decided to check out the rejuvenated Pullen Park today. It was a beautiful day (hard to believe we are enjoying 70 degree weather at the end of November), and they just spent million of dollars bringing Pullen Park back to wonderful – so of course we…
So our Connor-man never ceases to amaze me. A week or so ago, he was not a happy camper when you laid him down – I was pretty certain he might have an ear infection (which proved to be the case), but I missed the fact that he also got tooth #5. Now that Connor…
