Adrianna says many words, but sometimes she says things that we don’t understand. So when she kept saying this afternoon, “I ba-ba-ba-ba” I didn’t think too much of it. Until Greg peaked his head over the balcony (he is upstairs working from home) and told me it was because she wanted to listen to Barbara […]

Our Own American Idol Competition
I enjoy singing. I have been singing for as long as I can remember. My mom has tapes of me at three years old singing Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. I didn’t have the words quite right, singing, “then one froggy Christmas eve,” but it had a lot of heart and wasn’t bad for a […]
Toddler Toothpaste
Adrianna and I went to Target today. I was hoping to buy some stuff for the house. Who was I kidding when I thought I would actually be able to browse through the store with a toddler in tow? Adrianna was content to sit in the stroller with her bear for about 10 minutes and […]
A Girl of Many Words
Adrianna is getting more adept at putting words together now. Instead of pointing out body parts “buh-bow” (eyebrow) or various household objects and naming them, it is now “Daddy buh-bow” or “Rah-rah shoe” (Adrianna’s Shoe) or “Mayee eye” (Molly’s eye). When she puts words together that have different vowel sounds I can see her little […]
Boulder, New Furniture, and a Slide
Sometimes I feel like my posts are so random that I just cannot come up with a descriptive title… On Saturday, my friend Kristy drove up to Denver and we had a much needed girls’ night. We went and saw Catch and Release. It is totally a chick flick, so I am sure Greg is […]
Cheese!
She still holds her toy camera backwards when taking pictures.
Adrianna Opening A Gift
I mentioned a couple posts ago about Adrianna’s strange habit of handing me each scrap of wrapping paper before continuing to unwrap her gift. Here it is on video: Adrianna opens a Christmas gift. At the end, after she has handed me the last piece, you will hear her give a big “Thanks!”
Diaper Disaster
Or rather, a “no diaper” disaster. Saturday morning, Adrianna let us sleep in a little longer than normal. And when she finally did awake, she didn’t sound impatient to be out of her crib so Greg and I relaxed awhile before going in to her room. This turned out to be a huge mistake. When […]
Finally Christmas
We finally were able to get everyone together, on a weekend without snow, to celebrate our family Christmas. The only ones who couldn’t make it were Brian, Nga, and Ebony. It was a full house, but it was a lot of fun. We played MadGab and Scattergories in between taking care of Aidan, Layla, and […]
Rock Rock & More Pat Pat Pause
This morning, Adrianna was awake and quietly sitting up in her crib when I peaked into her room before leaving for work around 6:00 a.m. When she spotted me, she immediately and excitedly stood up and said, “ah ah” (rock rock) so I picked her up and we walked into our loft area and sat […]
