Year 34, lots of changes

Oops, I always try to do a Happy Birthday post for Lo and I forgot this year.  I didn’t forget his birthday…just to post about it.  Babies will do that to you. Thirty-four was a big year for Lo – he became a father and

I miss you summer season.

This summer FLEW by for me.  I feel like we just moved into our house, but it’s actually been over 5 months ago.   When I think about it, we’ve done a lot this summer and have kept very busy (often too busy), but it still
