Owen’s birthday party is going to be an intimate affair this year. We’re keeping it very small since baby #2 will be about ready to pop. Knowing I was sending out less than a dozen invitations, I took the opportunity to make elaborate invites. I, of course, had to share them with you! After much… Continue Reading
It’s hard to believe that Owen will be two years old in two months. And that he’ll have a little brother or sister in less than three months. I intended to give more updates about my second pregnancy. That hasn’t happened. Poor little unborn child – already getting neglected. I do promise to post something… Continue Reading
We’re not finding out what Baby Kopp #2 is, but luckily I didn’t have to wait to find out what my big sis Emily is having.

Except this time we’re not decorating and furnishing a nursery. Baby Kopp #2 is getting a hand-me-down as soon as it… Continue Reading
Time for the monthly update on Owen! Can you believe he’s 19 months old, closer to two years than one year old?? The more Owen talks, the more he makes me laugh. His rudimentary grasp of language is entertaining. He calls grapes “balls” which I find hilarious. When his nose is runny, he asks for… Continue Reading
Truthfully, Dr. Seuss Day excites me more than Valentine’s Day. It’s the book lover in me. To celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday last year, I hosted a Seuss-themed playtime party for Owen’s friends.
