we met heather and her two girls for some tasty chick-fil-a for lunch (and energy expending) on tuesday. anna had her first taste of ice cream. she wasn’t really a fan of eating the ice cream. just playing with the spoon seemed to work for her though. anyhoo. here’s some shots: livy: maya: isaac (who […]
anna
the stander
i’m not smart enough to embed this video of anna into this post, so until i figure that out (or derek figures it out for me), you’ll have to click this link to see the girl stand all by herself for 10 seconds or so… the stander.
lucky number seven.
the girl is seven months old on this day. she turned seven months way faster than isaac did. it’s flying by so fast. she’s super cute and fun these days. i love watching her face light up when she sees isaac. she can hear him when he comes down the stairs in the morning and […]

0.5 years! (and one day)

yesterday marked 6 calendar months of life for the sweet anna baby. i really really meant to post on time for this milestone, but then isaac stole her 1/2 year birthday thunder by projectile vomiting all day. (note: we took him to the doc’s and it seemed to just be a common bug and he’s […]
halloween, part two. (the nerd).

as once promised, here are some additional halloween pictures. i did a terrible job of capturing the festivities via digital camera, but thankfully jude was on the scene with her fancy pants camera. she captured some shots of the oldest lid kid, dressed up in his nerd costume which i had NONE of. and a […]
