Lucky girl. Laina’s class was selected to go trick-or-treating at the White House on Halloween night. Laina was initially super excited about the idea…then had mixed feelings because she didn’t want to miss out on trick-or-treating with her family and the neighborhood crew (which was completely understandable–I would have felt […]

Well, I guess technically it was her second one, but I’ll do another post on that next. L’s class headed to Miller’s Farm in MD last Friday, and I was fortunate to be able to be a chaperon. How fun to see Laina in this setting…riding a bus, being silly […]
I had to do a post about Sam’s first race! The kids were really excited to go watch their Daddy kick some a**! They were troopers because it was pretty chilly, and it was a super long walk from the car to viewing area. Once we arrived though, they had […]

Of course we can’t just celebrate birthdays once! Elijah is so lucky (as our L&A) to have such a close group of little pals in the neighborhood! We had everyone over for pizza, cupcakes, and playtime. Nothing major, but the kids seem to have just as much fun creating their […]
Elijah turned 3 last week! When Sam and I were thinking of what we wanted to do for him, ultimately we felt like there would be no cooler place for him than the Baltimore Aquarium. He has been before, but not for a long time. He is really interested in […]
