Coffee Break

SO I’M WRITING TO UPDATE YOU ALL, woah, ahem. I’m writing to update you on my coffee endeavors. They have been AWESOME. And then, a little too awesome.

When Henry was born, I thought we had a name picked out. Turns out, the name I like didn’t really jive with my husband. I didn’t know this until after the baby was born and I told people we were thinking about (insert name here) and then Paul kept adding “but we’re not sure.”
