Food. Family. Fun.
When? Later than we’d like. How? Much, much harder than we’d like. This little girl does not like to sleep. Also, she’s started to climb, and she’s very strong. Recently, we’ve spotted her grabbing the top rail of her crib… Read moreBedtime for Baguette
Baguette’s Grandma and Grandpa came for a visit this weekend. They live out of town, and it’s been about four months since she’s seen them. That’s a quarter of her life, so it took her a little time to remember… Read more“I Think She’s Just Being a Weird Baby Today”
