Welcome to my new blog!

I have never done this before.  This is my first time creating a blog and also I have started a new thing with Joelle called Tot School.  It's like a montessori way of setting up learning opportunities for your child.  It should always be fun!  I will use this blog to post pictures and keep an organized record of what we are doing each day.  This is a new fun adventure for us!
