Today he bought us tickets so we can be here


on September 11th to see the Bucks take on the Miami Hurricanes. The last time we saw the meeting of the two teams we won the National Championship, so hopefully our luck against them continues.

Four Months



Harper is four months old today...I simply cannot believe it. Time seems to have flown by. I realized today that I spend most of my days doing whatever it takes to make her smile...I just love her smile and it makes me smile to see it. She's started giggling so much more, so I will do anything to hear those precious laughs. She's already done so much in 4 months...been on plane, traveled to Boston, learned to grab and chew on things, standing in her exercauser, already wearing some 6-9 clothes. She would much rather spend her time sitting than laying down, and I can tell she's just dying to be able to sit on her own. We think she's going to be a lefty...she's always grabbing and pulling things with that hand. I am amazed every day how much this one little girl has changed my life.

Check out this giveaway

One of my favorite bloggies, Brittany, is having a giveaway. I'm really hoping I win, because the wristlet's are adorable, the teacher in me is in love with stationary...and who doesn't love a surprise. Check her out, and her give her your love. She's inspired me to do a giveaway...now I need to think of something to give away.

Darn you Yahoo!

So as I logged on the Yahoo today what was I greeted with? Their "Back To School" animation. Each year when I see this on Yahoo, it makes it that more real that summer is over. This summer in particular I will miss tremendously. I've gotten to spend so much great time with Harper and I am really worried about missing things when I go back to work. In that spirit, we started sending her to daycare two days a week until I go back to work just so I'm not bawling on my first day back at work she can get used to it. I've had to keep myself busy all day with chores and errands so I don't break down and just go pick her up.

All that being said, I am excited to go back to work. I love my job, and I am certainly not cut out for a long term stay-at-home mom gig. I'm happy to know that I have lots of 3 and 4 day weekends, along with Christmas break, Spring Break and summers off to spend with my adorable daughter.

Now...I have two more hours to kill before I go pick her up...maybe I'll go to the gym

Road Trip

Last Wednesday we left for Boston.
We did the drive in two days so that none of us would have to suffer through a 14 hour drive at one time. Harper did fantastic in the car. We stayed with the parents of the friends we went with. We had a blast. Harper got to put her feet in the sand and the Atlantic ocean for the first time.
She rode on a boat and hung out at the beach.
On Monday us adults went to the city while Harper hung out with her new psuedo-grandparents. We took the duck boat tour which is an old WWII vehicle that can travel on the water and land. We also took a tour of Fenway Park and went to a Redsox game.
It was a great trip and Harper impressed us with what a great traveler she is.
