Crazy thing we call life

We have been back and forth between home and town a lot lately. It's been fun and makes me miss living in the valley. I love our cozy place here in the mountains but I'm tired of packing and unpacking our overnight bags. It seems endless. Alfie is growing up so fast and he's the sweetest baby on the planet. This past weekend he learned to say "Grandpa!" Millie is cracking me up with her latest obsessions. Snapchat is at the top of the list, her funny faces and videos have me laughing to tears daily. A few weeks ago she mentioned something about the iguanas. What? After  a few minutes of questioning I realized she was talking about the Oscars! Thermometers are dominos and my humidifier is my kindle. I love when she mixes things up, it really makes me laugh so hard it's almost enough to pass as my daily workout.
