(Thanks to everyone who entered the Lisa Leonard giveaway!!  Congrats to Lisa K. who is the winner!)

Apologies for the sort of radio silence here on the blog for the past several days.  I think with summer nearing its end, and with this shared room project on my hands, plus two babies who would rather not take their usual longer naps this week, I have felt the need to take a deep breath and not worry so much about posting for this little bit of time.  I'm sure y'all would appreciate thoughtful content, anyway, rather than something thrown together just because.  Vivi starts school next week, and I can't believe fall is approaching so quickly.  Summer went by in a blink!  I do love fall, though, and I can't wait for all the coziness it brings along.  Above is a photo I snapped of Chip and the girls as he was saying goodbye before he left for work one morning.  This was Vivi's best attempt to get him to stick around while he was kissing Brigie.  We are really enjoying this season, and our time spent together as a family is the sweetest.  I am savoring it, for sure!  Thanks for being understanding!  Holding my breath before teething and potty training sets in . . .
