It’s been a really rinse and repeat type of week. Not much happening on the home front. Monday: the boy got word that his virtual batting gear has been shipped. We’re really excited to try it out. With the Occulus, the player gets inside the video and is able to bat against real pitchers. Lucky …

Week in Review
It’s been a big week on many levels. We started our week with a little bit of snow from a western based storm. That led to a really fun night of sledding. The boy learned that it takes a lot of effort to groove a nice path. Once we had it, the goal was to …
Week in Rewind
It’s been a super fast week on this end. Not a lot of exciting news, but activity nonetheless. This little girl is turning out to be a little dare devil. She hops around the house, constantly wanting to play. I like to call their battles, the Puppy Wars. At the beginning, JuJu clearly had the …
Week in Rewind
Here is a quick peak into our week. On Monday, we celebrated Martin Luther King’s Day. The Autobiography of Martin Luther King Jr. should be a must read for everyone. An incredible man at a tumultuous time. Tuesday was our first Beta call with Tom House. We all sat mesmerized as Tom discussed Tom Brady …
Growth
We talk a lot in our family about having a growth mindset. The boy naturally tends toward more of a fixed one, which can be challenging at times. More on that later. As for the pups, they are all into growth these days. JuJu is a natural growth mindset. Baby boy is inquisitive, loves to …
Queen’s Gambit
Over the holiday, we’ve been watching this Netflix thriller. I wasn’t sure the boy would be into it, but I was wrong. It really peaked his interest in learning chess. We ventured down to the basement and found daddy’s long lost set. With that, the boy has wanted to play non-stop. And while just a …
Year in Rewind
Let’s get this out of the way first thing. The global pandemic really made this an interesting year. And to think, that we all used to watch 2020 with Barbara Walters and look forward with such anticipation. I remember first hearing about Covid19 while running. I was listening to a NPR podcast that was talking …
Cheech N Chong
To say the last few weeks have been an adventure would be an understatement. We are still settling into our life with two puppies. And these two really could pass for any number of duo comedians….but I like to think they have some Cheech and Chong in them, without the drugs. They are beginning to …
Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is this Thursday. It’s definitely going to be different than our typical one. We will miss prepping for the the big dinner, laughter in the house, game time…we play a mean Family Feud, but we know that next year, God willing, we’ll be right back at it. There is much to be thankful for …
Pups
Last weekend, we finally picked up the pups from the breeder. We were delayed a week so we were more than ready. Off we went on a cooler Saturday morning to collect them. First up, Reecie Pooh. When we last saw her, several weeks ago, I admit that I was scared because she didn’t look …
