By Lauren | Published November 5, 2013

We had a great visit with Sam’s family this weekend, lots of laughter. They brought with them some things that were Sam’s when he was a baby – clothes, lots of blankets, sleep sacks and a vintage baby buggy from Germany (they were stationed in Germany when he was little). Kitty is enjoying her new […]
