It’s getting cool around here. When I say cool, I mean that it’s been in the 60′s and even some 50′s at night. It feels great after a hot summer! Football has started so John’s been obsessing about his two Fantasy Football teams and the U of P students are back in school. Usually on [...]

No, I’m not talking about religion, I’m talking about diapers. We’re taking the plunge and are going to start using cloth diapers on Hadley.

Christie provided the wine and snacks, we provided our onsies, iron on letters, and crafting skillz.
