Crib

We got a crib!!!!

My grandma Norma bought us and baby a beautiful crib and today Marc, our friend/neighbor/landlord picked it up from Babies’R’Us for us with his truck and brought it to our house. It’s still in the box because we aren’t sure if it’ll fit in baby’s room with the double bed still up, so here’s a stock photo for now. Real photos to come. Thanks, Grandma; we love it!We also learned from this experience that that the people (teenagers) working at Babies’R’Us are very slow…but I guess that’s what you can expect from a chain store. They messed up our order at the beginning and I had to track down the crib, then Marc spent an hour there today because they couldn’t find it – even after I called to confirm this morning – and then they tried to give him the wrong one. So we owe Marc a giant thanks, too!

I think there might be some homemade mint chocolate chip ice cream coming his way…

It's that time again... Girl Scout cookies! And this year we have two selling. Help them meet their cookies sales goals by ordering online. 

If you live nearby, choose girl delivery and help get cookie boxes out of our garage... Otherwise we're going to be giving them Girl Scout  Cookies for birthday and Christmas presents all year.

Bus stop selfie with Nora. This week she moved from her tiny charter school with only 18 eighth graders to the public middle school with over 200. And now she rides the bus.

The charter school wasn't challenging her enough, has a huge percentage of students who are disruptive in the classroom, and has been having trouble keeping teachers. Last year she loved it. But this year it was one thing after another, so right before Thanksgiving she and I went to go tour our neighborhood  middle school, and she immediately wanted to make the switch.

We've never had a kid in public school and I was nervous about how the transition would go from such a small school to a big one, but so far she's loving it and is glad she decided to move schools. It helps that she knows kids there already from her dance team. Hopefully she'll still be happy when she starts getting homework. Coming from a no homework school that may be a shock to us all.

Halloween 2022. Two witches, a murderous cat, and a creepy Victorian doll. 

Zara's costume was my favorite this year - Nora did her makeup and she wore my flower girl dress from my mom and step-dad's wedding. She might have worn it better. ๐Ÿ˜‚
