bits and bobbins

our gardens were really good to us this year.

poppy’s THIRD birthday was last friday (august 19th).

we can hardly believe it.

she is the awesomesauce.

favorite activities: reading, painting/drawing, digging in the sandbox, playing with duplos. avid collector of hello kitty stuffed toys. she’s basically a huge hello kitty fan all around. so cute.

it’s been a crazy summer.

bittersweet news:

we’re moving to chicago next month. pete’s office here is closing, and they are moving everyone back to the chicago office.

i’m a little sad to be leaving (the) new york (area), but happy to leave greenwich (not my scene) and i’m kind of looking forward to going back to chicago. it’s a bigger, urban, vibrant city (compared to greenwich!) and i kind of know it already (having lived there 5-6 months in late 2009-2010).

trying to think positive.
