Girl’s Life

On daycare days, we never know how Sophia’s hair is going to look when we pick her up. Her caretakers are always putting clips and side ponytails in her hair in the afternoon to “pretty her up” for pick up time. Chris and I crack UP when we see her. Today was over the top–her […]

I love the morning light in our dining room. I love the way Sophia sits on her feet to reach her breakfast (she has insisted on sitting at the big table with us–not in her high chair–since we moved in this summer). I love her golden hair in the sun. And I love that […]

We had a fabulous Christmas this year. And even though I’m sure you’ve all moved on already to all things 2008, I’ve decided it’s still a relevant topic since we just took down our Christmas tree today.

Maybe pretending it’s the cold wintertime when it’s 100+ degrees outside convinces her it’s not so hot. I think the kid might be on to something. Anything’s worth […]

Chris and I hit the town for our anniversary this weekend. Sophia stayed with her grandparents while we headed to Hollywood for an amazing dinner and an awesome show at the Pantages Theater. It was great . . . and long overdue.
As we lingered over a delicious dinner, we sat sipping our wine and […]
