We met our goal for Girl Scout Cookies.... Ainsley's troop set their goal at 30 boxes each and Natalie's troop set theirs at 60 boxes. I know this is probably low for some troops, but this is our family's first year so I am glad for the chance to ease into this experience.
I'm happy to say, as of last night, we met the goal for both girls. We are two boxes short of Natalie's goal, but since we plan to order a few boxes for our family I'm not worried about it. When I told the girls we were done selling due to hitting our goal Natalie said, "We can sell more than our goal, mom."
"Yes, dear. I know." I said.
Great. I've got an overachiever on my hands..... so if you're in the Pittsburgh area and still want to order, email me... We deliver mid - February. Orders are due next week.
My giant and I met in high school and have been married for over a decade. I cannot imagine living my life with anyone else.
Natalie is the typical first child - she loves to manage everyone including her parents and complete strangers. She collects things - anything really - and enjoys organizing and rearranging the contents of her drawers and shelves on nearly a daily basis. She is extremely sweet, rules-oriented, and loves giving people parting gifts to remember her by.
If anyone was made to be an Egyptian princess, it is our Ainsley. She loves being carried around and rubbed. She is an extremely happy child who seems to be singing 24/7 and will ham it up for a laugh.
Ryan is our miracle baby. We were told at 12 wks. in utero that he would never make it to 20 weeks. He was born with Pentalogy of Cantrell which includes ectopia cordis, omphalocele, herniated diaphragm, sternal cleft, and ventricular septal defect (VSD). Additionally, he has a missing PDA, pulmonary atresia, hypoplastic right heart syndrome (HRHS), and a cor triatriatum membrane in his heart.

Girl Scout cookies are dangerous in more ways than one! Congrats on meeting the goal so quickly.
