I have so many little matters to tell you of, that I cannot wait any longer before I begin to put them down.

It’s so nice to have a guest room again! There’s our futon, which is currently serving as a guest bed for Grandma and Grandpa, an end table inherited from Uncle Rich and Aunt Becky when we first got married, and a fold-up sewing table that I just purchased this week that will double as a […]

Today we hosted the Zirrettas for an afternoon playdate and the Andersons for pizza and movie night, so Elizabeth (of her own volition) cleaned up the house for me while Tommy and I were finishing up French. Here’s the cleaned up living room and library!

Four and a half years here–hard to believe. When we moved in, I was just starting to figure out the manual settings on my camera, Tommy was drinking out of a sippy cup, Susie was a newborn, and Elizabeth had all her teeth (for a few days, at least). And we’re moving out today.

As of today, both Tommy and Elizabeth are missing their bottom left lateral incisors. I find their matching smiles hilarious, given their 27 month age difference. (And actually, Tommy is missing all four of his lateral incisors. The braces should help make room for the top ones to come in, but we’ll just say it’s […]
