Her: We should have a baby.
Him: No.
Her: But, look at all these cute baby things.
Him: No.
Her: This bib says, "My Dad's the best".
Him: Okay, maybe we should have a baby.

Remember
- We've got two lives; one we're given, the other one we make. ~~~Mary Chapin-Carpenter
Welcome
- I'm Susan. I'm flawed, but I try my best. I love used book stores, family game night, starfish, the Red Sox, lighthouses, and itty bitty baby toes. I'm addicted to pumpkin spice lattes and my family. Soggy food makes me gag. I have a fabulously talented husband (Steve) and two sweet, funny daughters: Harper (9) and Addison (6). Despite my best efforts, their hair is always messy; I've grown to love crooked pigtails. We live in a small shoreline town in Southeastern Connecticut with our 90 pound Labradoodle and our two, much smaller, tiger cats. Our house is old. Our decor is primarily Children Live Here with a splash of Constant Renovation. Come on in and make yourself comfortable.
