That's what i'm betting it is with Little Girl.<br /><br />Sarah, we love it, too -- in some ways i think we've gone soft with all these conveniences, but i don't want to have to toughen up and do without them!messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-25475880856413699932013-04-10T17:40:21.835-05:002013-04-10T17:40:21.835-05:00Funny story, and I must say that I love the conven...Funny story, and I must say that I love the convenience of a fridge and freezer!Simply Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11562206323308418937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-3463063518098756142013-04-10T17:36:18.629-05:002013-04-10T17:36:18.629-05:00It's interesting how some kids resemble their ...It's interesting how some kids resemble their parents and others don't.
