We are big fans of Hoda Kotb from the Today show. We love this book.
Hamilton! Such a great and powerful musical. We watched it on Disney+ for the first time this summer.
Favorite family movie. Lillian loved this so much, she asked us to watch this over and over again. Instant family, exactly.
Another tv show that was Lillian's favorite! We look forward to watching this again.
This was Lillian's favorite show when she was younger. Had to share! We can't wait to watch this again in our home.
What's on Todd's night stand? Here's the book he's reading now. A book based on a real story of two boys unfairly sentenced to a reform school.

Olivia Thomas, Ashley's sister
" Since we were young Ashley has always been great at organizing and coming up with creative ways to make the mundane things to something fun and memorable. Todd and Ashley have always been great with children. My kids always look forward to seeing them and their favorite cousin Lillian. Ashley comes from a large family and understands the unique comaraderie that develops with siblings growing up. They have so much more love to give another child and Lillian has been asking for a brother or sister since she was a toddler. She yearns for that friendship and partner-in-crime from a sibling. Todd has always been a fun, loving, active and involved father and uncle. He is always up for doing something fun outside or playing a board game. Lillian is smart, compassionate, funny and truly cares about others. She always makes sure everyone is included. Please consider this family to love and raise your precious gift. They will grow up with a loving family who will always make sure they know how much they are loved and help them become the best versions of themselves. Your precious child will grow up with cousins close in age and develop fantastic friendships with them. "
