Dahlia woke up at 6 crying I said "what's wrong?" "Baba!" So I gave her some water she took some sips and passed back out. So glad she talks

Twitter Tuesday

Posting on the right day? I must be on vacation! My twitter is basically what I use as my diary it's a quick easy way to just jot little notes through the day and then I can go back and look at all the cute little things we've done throughout the year. I'm a sucker for social media but I mainly use it to remember all the good things we've done.








June 25
