Big day in our house.

In exciting news, our great friends Jen and Duke welcomed a little baby boy into the world today. We can’t wait to meet Baby Harrison Brian this weekend!

In celebration of Baby Harrison’s birth we bought a new couch! This couch buying process has been going on for a few weeks and is not an easy decision. We decided on one from Macy’s, without the chaise.

Now the plan is to paint the

Good Morning! Happy Superbowl Sunday!

We started the day with some bed head and a smile.

Then I headed out on a sunny 6 mile run while Brady taught Anna the mascots of different football, basketball, baseball and soccer teams. She loved it.

Mmm Sauce

In honor of Mama Pea’s second cookbook, I decided to make her highly raved about MMM sauce. While I was skeptical of the many different ingredients, I in no way doubted it’s delicousness. What I didn’t realize was how fantastic it was going to be. It exceeded my expectations. Brady loved it as well. And although Anna called it hummus (which I let happen since she loves hummus!), she loved it too! I see why Sarah specifically wrote that

The weekend again went way too fast. It started with bowling on Thursday night and continued with a night in on Friday, a busy but relaxing day Saturday that included couch shopping and Chipotle followed by more shopping Sunday.

Now we are already at Monday morning with no couch and no weekend left. Bummer.
