2 Years Old, Disney Expert

caylin went to disney world this summer while brett and i were in vegas. my mom took her. i’ve literally lost count of how many times my mom and i went to disney while i was growing up, and now she’s passing it along to my kid. quite…

What's The Protocol

at what point do you stop counting the months and start counting the years? caylin is 2 now, so i no longer say she’s “25 months”. she’s 2. but i feel like if i stop documenting all of this i’m going to forget all the little things.…
