About Us

The title for our blog came from the saying "thinking outside the box", which means to think differently, unconventionally or from a new perspective. "Enjoy your choices and enjoy what you do. Never let a day go by without being thankful for the fact that you get to be here in the first place." Hopefully this blog will help family and friends to stay a little closer to us even though were thousands of miles apart; as well as to share in our trials, daily life adventures and traveling experiences.

Today's a New Day!

Woke up today feeling a bit better. We all went to bed extra early last night. It was pretty brisk here this morning but we went for our walk anyway. Ella got to try out her new pea coat (still a bit big) and hat (fit perfectly).
Don't you just love her expression...it's a new thing she's been doing with her bottom lip!
 Our stroller can be adjusted to fit three different seats. At first (and only for a very short time) we used the bassinet attachment. Our car seat snaps in the easiest and we use this ALL the time. Since Ella is getting a bit bigger now and the brace makes it a tight fit in the car seat we decided to try out the third seat attachment. She loved it. She is facing forward now when we walk. When she was in the car seat she was looking at the person who was pushing her. I miss that part, but she loves to hold onto the bar in this new seat and look around. The nicest part about this seat is if we are out and about for too long and Ella needs to nap, it very easily lays all the way back. I seriously think they should make these for adults and we should get pushed around! I wonder if Doug would go for it?!?!





It's beginning to feel like fall....leaves are falling (but not pretty colors)
