Parker Lily Ann

Here are just a few pictures of my niece Parker Lily Ann. She was born on March 12th, one week before I got back to the US. She just couldn't wait for me :) Luckily now we get to spend lots of time together. She is amazing and perfect!!! That is definitely not a biased opinion :)

I will post some more pictures soon.
It is basically nap time all the time right now

Montepulciano

The last stop on our day trip through Tuscany was to a town called Montepulciano. Montepulciano is the biggest of the four we visited that day. Because it was last we didn't have much sunlight left, so our trip was short.

Montepulciano is a medieval hill top town, with arched alleyways going under buildings. It is well known for its wine and cheese. I would love to go back and look around more in the daylight. From what we were able to see, it is a beautiful town!

I always feel like a giant in these medieval towns
