Busy, Busy, Busy…

Bouncer 3 months & 7 months

We’ve been so busy this week and totally off schedule. Our virtual academy did TCAP testing and we had to be up and moving by 7am each day. Miss Muffin is especially unappreciative of the early wake up time because she isn’t used to seeing the a.m. hours.

Since it’s Mother’s Day I wanted to get away from the typical gift baskets for baby but I didn’t want to go total spa or chocolate basket route either. [Read more →]
