    Feeling old

    OK. To be clear, I realize that I am relatively young, and perhaps this post should be more aptly titled– Life Changes.
    Let me start from the beginning…kind of. I used to enjoy the challenge of shopping– finding a deal, the right fit, etc. Then I had The Boy. I then realized that I had not [...]

    Arrival and Hitting the Town

    We rode the train to Milan and caught a taxi to the hotel.  It was so much more than I expected! Our first room (yes, there were two) was very nice, but the sitting area did not have a door. Usually when we travel, we try to get a two room suite, so if The [...]

    The Boy’s feet are fat

    Yes, another shoe story. It’s been three or four months after all. This time we just bought one pair of shoes– athletic style– for those rainy days, because it is still plenty warm enough here to wear sandals., and they will fit for…oh a week or two yet. We found out his left foot is [...]

    The most random post ever

    I’ll start from today and work backwards…
    First. We bought a new stroller. I LOVE the Bugaboo Cameleon. With a passion, but it is hard to travel with, so we bought a new stroller– the Quinny Zapp. It is an amazing little stroller– drives as nice as the Bugaboo, and it folds incredibly compactly– like smaller [...]
