Going to Target with a toddler girl means leaving the store with a pair of $6 butterfly wings that you had no intention of purchasing. Do you leave the kids at home when you shop? Thank goodness for that dollar bin at Target.
The Family Hat: Logan’s Bath
While Ryan was working hard, we were hardly working (Kelsey actually pulled up a chair). It’s the perfect Sunday to be outside. So, after a wagon ride to the park, Kelsey and I watched as Ryan gave Logan (and our cat) a bath outside. Logan was such a good sport! The cat … not so […]
