Month 69 & 70, Version 2.0
Dear Miles, You’re officially in kindergarten! This should feel like a bigger milestone but I feel a bit robbed since you went to developmental kindergarten or also referred to as DKA or TK or my personal favorite, freedom.

By this time, my head cold was […]

#ostockdamhagen16 Part 4: Our Final Days in Amsterdam
Our last full day in Amsterdam gave us a chance to tackle a few things that we didn’t get a chance to check out during the week. After a quick breakfast, we walked across the bridge to the NEMO Science Museum that received rave review from fellow Amsterdam visitors.
