Nice. I learned a few new things about you. I actually did it.
Ive been meaning to ask, why did you guys take Scooter with you? I hope you love him more now ;)
I can totally picture the Carol singing Feliz Navidad annoyingly to you all for her own personal entertainment. She's funny like that. This made me giggle.
Cute! I loved reading about you lol.
congrats on the pregnancy!! My sisters boys are only 14 months apart and even though it can be tough she really enjoys it. They will be great friends being so close in age!!
