Farewell For Now, Brynne

We are slowly getting back into the swing of things. Fevers are gone, the house has been disinfected and Charlotte was super eager to get out of the house to celebrate Brynne's third birthday! It's quite bittersweet actually. Not did we celebrate, but we said farewell too - Brynne and her family are moving to Australia (they leave tomorrow)!

Brynne was Charlotte's first little friend and they even went to Vesa's together for quite some time! Good luck and have fun! Can't wait to see y'all again!

Preschool Update

Week One
Fantastic! Charlotte is eager to join in each morning with her friends. She has even taken a few naps during quiet time! Yay!

Week Two
Snow. Home all week. Work closed. School closed. City closed.

Week Three
Despite vaccines, the flu has come upon us.
Home all week.

Here's to hoping the charm of preschool still exists after all this time off (I'm raising my faux glass of bubbly)!

Snow!

You read right! Snow (and ice)! Pretty much has the whole city shut down (literally), but we sure are enjoying it! Pretty sure we'll be home the rest of the week (seriously, I'm really not joking)!

Snow Day!

Milestone :: Preschool

I can't believe this day is really here!

Stevens and I both took Charlotte in for drop-off this morning; we were invited and welcome to stay as long as we wanted. I fully intended on spending the whole morning, but Charlotte took to it and jumped right in. After it was clear she was going to be just fine, Stevens made the "it's time to go eyes" at me - I tried not to lose it, took a deep breath, gave Charlotte a quick hug and ushered myself quickly out the door only to be greeted by a flood of tears.

It sure was tough, but I know she is in good hands.
Good luck little friend! This is just the beginning!

The Princess And Her Pups

Noticing a trend? Charlotte is VERY much into "her princesses" and that means we all are now too (psst - Daddy is the most excited of all).
