- Maddie turned THREE! Yup. How can she be 3 already? She is definitely our most “spirited” child as well as a complete social butterfly. We didn’t have a big party or anything, because, well, she’s three and doesn’t understand yet. But we did sing to her and she opened gifts. Her favorite was her Moana microphone, which she carried around for DAYS.
- Jen & Kristen visited Ireland! Ok, that’s not really anything that we did, but we got to hear all about it when they came back and Jen even brought back the kids gifts. Josiah got a “Where’s Larry” book (a spin off of “Where’s Waldo–very cute), Chloe got a beautiful shamrock necklace and keychain, and Maddie and Levi got adorable shirts and stuffed sheep!
- Nana & Bumpa came for a visit! This was a huge highlight for us. They even brought Abby (their dog) who the kids adored–especially Maddie and Levi. We made a big map and they would update us on their location so we could map out their travel. The kids loved this.
- I also made a table for the double stroller. This may not be exciting for you, but I’m pretty proud of myself! I bought the double stroller years ago from a random person on craigslist and I didn’t realize it didn’t have the bar/table across the front. It works just fine without it, so I didn’t care. But now that we’re going for longer walks I thought it would be nice for Maddie and Levi to have a space to put their toys and books. So, I concocted a way to make a table for cheap (under $10!) and voila! It already had the holes in the side of the stroller so I purchased a rod the exact size so it can slide right in.
What great memories!!
