Learning by Leaps and Bounds

New page layout is a tribute to Maxx.



His vocabulary is growing everyday, and we all love to hear him talk. His favorite word this week was "frog". Unfortunately, it comes out very different when he tries to say it (still starts with f but ends in K).

He couldn't figure out why everyone kept laughing, so when we ask him to say "frog" now, he says "riiibbbittt".

An Ode to Em

My sister has been riding me to blog, to discourage people from this practice I have decided to make her the topic of this post.


Actually... Her birthday is in January, I will not reveal her age, but she is 7 years my elder. I am 25 :) - couldn't resist. It was nice having someone older as I grew up to steal clothes from, buy me Doc Martins, and warn me when I was being stupid... still is.

Our family teases Emily constantly for reading the Obituaries faithfully, I am fully depending on her to let me know when I am dead. So, although she is very alive and hopefully always will be the following is her random tribute from me for now.




Project Manager Barbie... I mean Em
Be it teaching me to tie my shoes to directing the family on building the largest playhouse ever she is a great motivator and teammate.





Good sport: She will dejunk our homes and is always willing to dress the part, although she still refuses to match clothes with me... although sometimes it happens on accident - haha!

Great Mom
Fun Aunt
Uses restraint: We all know she can kill us, and probably often wants to, but the fact that she hasn't is all that matters.





She may not be perfect, but I'm glad she is my sister and friend.
