Morning Snuggling
There is just so much cute going on these days. Every morning, Sophia wants to snuggle with her baby brother. And, of course, Ian doesn’t mind at all seeing as Sophia is his favorite person in the whole world. Really. Even though I’ve got this massively sore back from all the weird leaning and funky […]
Dads
We had a pretty great weekend celebrating this guy, the most caring, engaged, loving and active father I could have hoped for for my kids.
One month . . .
Happy one month birthday, little man!
I can’t believe we’ve reached this milestone so quickly. The time with you has flown by. I think that’s mostly because your big sister is keeping me so busy making sure she doesn’t suffocate you with her love. It’s a round-the-clock job, this anti-smother duty she has me on.
Don’t get […]
Welcome, son!
He’s here! My little baby boy is finally here. Ian Christopher made his appearance last week on May 6th — all 10 lbs., 8 oz. of him — and I am realizing life will never be the same. It’s crazy and perfect and wonderful and noisy chaos with two kids. And I love it!
Ian is […]

What’s up with that?) and, no surprise from the 9 pound bundle I brought home last time, this little one is measuring not-so-little. He’s likely to show up at anytime — that’s what my body’s […]
Kissy McSlobberface
You can tell lately that Sophia is trying to stock pile hugs and kisses and quiet reading moments and loud playful moments with Chris and me (and the dog!) — storing them up for a time when mom and dad are a little more busy with a new baby. It’s almost like she’s onto the […]
Your autograph please?
My brother Greg was down to visit on Tuesday, and we met up with him for a quick trip to Disneyland. (Hey, if you’ve got season passes, it calls for a random day off mid-week sometimes to play!) When we got there, he gave Sophia this hilarious autograph book where essentially she goes around the […]
Let it rain
Let the rain kiss you.
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops.
Let the rain sing you a lullaby.
~ Langston Hughes
We’ve had a lot of rain around here lately. I particularly love it when I get to be inside with nowhere to go. Sophia particularly loves it when she gets to explore outside […]
