This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Allstate. All opinions are 100% mine. So the last post I wrote about how we bought a new house was a little on the negative side. Or maybe a lot on the negative side, as I explained why buying a house is a bad idea. Nevertheless, we, of course, bought a house anyway.

A Week in May
May 24, 2013 by
What have we been up to lately? I definitely owe a family post, so here goes! Last Saturday, after breakfast with Pops, we walked down to the park by Pops' house. After a long time playing, Jaye was hot and thirsty. She clearly needed a treat from the ice cream truck. "Mmmm." On Tuesday, Jaye and I met up with her friend Sam at the Galleria play area. She and Sam sweetly shared their snacks with each other, even though for the most part they didn't interact much. Baby playdates are … [Read more...]
