Andrews Family

For the last week (following the hurricane), we have enjoyed early Fall temperatures - highs near 80 and lows in the 60s. It’s been absolutely beautiful and though I haven’t gotten out much, just knowing it was not 100 really made me happy. Well that is all coming to an end. I see that NE [...]

Happy one-week birthday, Violet Frances! We are all enjoying having you at home and everything is going quite well. You are really a beautiful baby and Mama & Daddy can’t stop talking about it, especially all your dark hair! You have been a good little eater & sleeper and that is all we can ask [...]

I hope y’all got a chance to hear Gov. Sarah Palin’s address to the Republican National Convention tonight. I’m considering it my silver lining that I got to watch her introduction to the national stage from the comfort of my couch (yes, that means I’m STILL pregnant). Those who know me will not be surprised [...]

OK, so Livy isn’t quite old enough for school, but she did start at the St. William’s Early Childhood Development Center this week (a.k.a. Mother’s Day Out). We found out last week that she got a spot - just in time for Jenny and Livy to go to Meet the Teacher Day. Livy was pretty [...]
