Candes, how exciting about Carsen! How neat about the reunion, too. I predict Bryce will walk at 16 months, but he could surprise me! I will leave Bryce rear facing for a while. He can see Hayden better that way, too.
Cyndi, so sorry about your mom.

She is lucky you are nearby. I am sure Gabe doesn't feel too left out and probably enjoyed his week of birthday more than just one day. I still intend to post a few pics of Bryce's party soon. I am just sooooo tired, not up for much of anything right now, except sleep! Which I am not getting enough of, if you didn't guess. lol
Amy, how does your bedroom look with the new furniture?

Good for you for doing all you can yourselves. We have done a lot of work on this house but not much in the last year or so. Still have the plumbing stuff to contend with outside before we can get back to the inside.
