We spent the weekend camping out at Chris' dad's farm and the herb garden he's growing on his deck is inspiring me to put more effort into our little patch. We had a decent garden going this spring but it got totally neglected in the middle of August when we failed to realize our sprinklers were broken for weeks. A plus side of living in Texas is that we can have a pretty decent winter garden, I just have to decide how much time we have to put into tending it.

Perfect evening for a ride on her new bigger, 21-speed bicycle. 🚴‍♀️ Nora's needed a bigger bike for a while now and some very awesome grandparents sent her money for her birthday which she was able to combine with money we've paid her for "babysitting" her sisters to buy this beauty. It took embarrassingly long for us to teach our kids how to ride bikes, but they're making up for lost time now, riding every chance they get.

I have had the opportunity to speak personally with @joebiden twice. When we lived on Nantucket and he was Vice President, he would come every year for Thanksgiving and he always went to eat at Chris' restaurant once during the trip. Chris has cooked for a good number of celebrities and political figures (even spent a week as a personal chef on a hunting trip with Dick Cheney and several 4 star generals), and VP Biden was always one of his favorite - because Biden is a genuinely nice person to everyone, including people in the service industry (which was frequently not the case with his peers). The first time I met VP Biden was briefly in 2010. I asked him if he wouldn't mind taking a picture and he very kindly obliged. The following Thanksgiving, in 2011, I spoke with him outside Chris' restaurant and I shared with him my frustrations as a young woman trying to start a business and struggling to come up with the necessary capital. I still had a ton of student loans and I was feeling really discouraged because I had worked incredibly hard to write a business plan and was unable to secure funding. The bank had told me they wouldn't give me a loan, I didn't have any luck finding an angel investor on island, and crowd funding was really only for nonprofits or creative ventures at that point. After speaking with him, I handed him a copy of the photo from the previous year and a letter that better detailed my challengers as a young female entrepreneur. VP Biden kindly listened to me and then asked if I wanted to take another picture for Nora's baby book. I wasn't going to ask again, but since he offered, I said yes. The following January, I was surprised to find a letter from him in the mail. Many politicians might have set my letter aside and forgotten about it. They would have probably thrown away the picture of them with a random constituent they didn't know. But not Biden. He autographed the picture for Nora's baby book and he sent my letter onto the SBA to see if they could help me get my business off the ground. Not only did he hear me, but he actually took action to help. That's the kind of guy Joe Biden is. #votebiden

A rare #mirrorselfie with my mini me in honor of I finally stopped wearing maternity pants...you know, 11 months later. I'm not sure if it is the 4th baby or the whole having a baby at 34 thing, but I have a very stubborn 20 pounds of pregnancy weight that doesn't want to go away. With the other three girls I was back in my pre-baby clothes by 9 or 10 months without really doing anything. This time around it would appear that I'm going to have to work for it, and last week I finally broke down and bought pants in a larger size than I used to wear. I was holding out, but it started to feel a little silly to be still wearing maternity pants at 11 months #postpartum. Welcome to middle age, I guess? It's a good thing she's so darn cute - she's definitely worth the extra pounds. 😉

Sisters ♥️♥️♥️♥️ I grew up with all brothers. The only girl and oldest; I had 4 brothers close in age to me and then my mom and stepdad adopted two more boys when I was a freshman in college. I guess all that wishing for sisters resulted in 4 daughters. All the time when I was pregnant with Vivienne people would ask me if we were hoping for a boy or if we had been trying for a boy. Of course I would have been happy to have had a son and I know the big girls were rooting for a brother, but honestly having four girls just feels so balanced and perfect I wouldn't have it any other way. I love how well they click with one another and that we have 2 bigs and 2 littles...built in best friends. One of my biggest hopes for our girls is that they will stay connected and close when they grow up. Always there for one another whether to provide a listing ear or make one another laugh. 👭👭
