Am I crazy?

So apparently dealing with loss of sleep because of Lucas teething, then the 2 hour time difference adjustment from vacation AND daylight savings time isn't enough...I love a good challenge! After this weekend this adorable crib will be no more...

Lucas is moving into the bottom bunk! He keeps waking himself up at night by hitting his head on the end of the crib, so we figured we would give it a try...

So far so good...

Still Aidan's favorite place to be...

One year ago today...

We sold our boutique - Little Green Baby. Boy has life changed since then! I do miss some aspects of it, but timing couldn't have been better considering all that happened after that. The new owner is doing a fantastic job of keeping Little Green Baby alive!

How can it be?

My dad has been gone for 6 months. Sometimes it feels longer...most of the time less. I still can't believe he isn't here. He was just too young...we still had so much to do with him...

I am so glad he got to meet Lucas.

Aidan still talks about him all the time and asks questions. I want to be honest with him and keep him in his memories.

This was dad as a baby...I see so much of him in Lucas

We all still miss him deeply. It's hard to describe losing a parent - most people don't understand until they go through it. It's tough. You move on, but you never forget.

Mom, come find me!

I'm ready to go back on vacation!

Puerto Rico!

We had a blast this past week in Puerto Rico - it was tough to come back to this Chicago weather. We rented a house on the beach with a pool in the back - it was perfect. Nate's Mom, Kylie, Amy and Vivi, Elizabeth, Stephanie and Steph's roommate Kate came along. Here are some pics from the week:

Birthday cake! We met up with Kelly & Jay at the Pork Highway - such a cool little town in the mountains. Kelly brought a cake to celebrate our birthdays.

Favorite local rum

Old San Juan - the architecture and the history here is amazing...I need to spend a few more days here!

The Rain Forest

Family picture time!

We had an amazing trip and it was fun to spend time with family. Can't wait to do it again!
