First Day of First Grade…

CurrClick

Yea! We made it!
Sissy’s first day of first grade

Bubba’s first day of whatever.
(The boy has got a workbook and a house full of educational treasures….who needs a curriculum…..he’ll be fine.)
I had planned on taking lots of photo snapshots of our day.

However I spent most of the day holding Monkey.
And Monkey don’t [...]

Funny Baby Dreams

So I had a Dream Last Night…….
You know, those infamous Baby dreams….
The ones that come right around your due date, and reveal how much stress and pressure you’re feeling about the upcoming baby….
