Derek stole my camera last night to prove that I do read to the kids, too!
Once Susie’s toddler bed broke a few weeks ago, we decided it was time to take the plunge to bunk beds. Tommy isn’t as scared of heights anymore and has been asking for more privacy, and the girls want a snuggle buddy every night, anyway, so we were ready! The bed came yesterday, and both […]
