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...

She still holds her toy camera backwards when taking pictures.

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....

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...

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...
