I’ve been grasping to Teagan’s baby days. And yet they are escaping me. He will be 2 in 37 days. But there are so many things I love about having a toddler boy in the house again. Rough. Tumble.

3. Iphone pic….I find it oddly amusing and ironic that these two rung in the new year just like this…..
