Who sleeps like this?!
September 28, 2009 at 10:16 am
She really was sleeping (hence the lack of flash photography). Weirdo.

Today baby girl came down with her first cold. It’s not a bad one – just some little sniffles and a bit of post-nasal drip – but she’s so confused and saddened by not being able to breathe easily. It breaks my heart. Get well soon, little one!

Jon surprised us by taking the day off on Tuesday! Hooray! We enjoyed a lovely day as a family up in Ipswich. We had planned to go to the Clam Box (we STILL have never eaten there), but, of course, Tuesday is the day they’re closed. Oh well, we still got our lobster rolls. Then [...]
How do you like them apples?

Last weekend we visited Nashoba Valley Winery with the Remicks. This great little winery/orchard was the site of their wedding several years ago and we could see why they chose it. It was beautiful there, and we enjoyed the most absolutely perfect near-fall day. The sun-dappled lawn was covered with friends and families enjoying picnic [...]
Peek-a-boo!

Our first video, and it’s a good one! I had Sylvie facing forward in her wrap this afternoon and was working to tidy up a bit. As I went to fold her “Bundle Me” car seat cover in front of her face, she unexpectedly burst out into peals of laughter. Unsure of what was so [...]
One year ago today

One year ago today, I was on Monhegan Island with my dad. Father-daughter bonding time. From the moment we got there, I had a constant metallic taste in my mouth and a sneaking suspicion that there were actually three of us on the trip. I snuck a pregnancy test into the bathroom and got the [...]
Au Revoir, Tante Biba!

It was great to see you these past few months! Have a great trip back to France, and we hope to see you in a few months.
Maybe she will have my eyes after all?

For the longest time, Sylvie’s eyes were that murky blue-gray-brown color. They always showed up brown or black in photos. Since Jon’s entire family has brown eyes and brown is dominant, I just assumed hers were brown-in-training. But lately she’s been getting these little striations in her iris, much like mine. Will she have mommy’s [...]
Giggles, giggles all over the place!
September 14, 2009 at 10:44 pm
I’m a bad mama and don’t know the actual date that it truly kicked into action, but Sylvie is laughing! It’s such music to my ears! If we catch her in a good mood and engage her in some silliness, she graciously returns the favor by producing the cutest giggles ever. Some giggle-worthy activities currently [...]
From bellies to babies
September 13, 2009 at 10:47 pm
Today we reunited with Nancy and Chi-Yun and their adorable baby, Luke. Oh, the cheeks! Nancy and Chi-Yun were in our Natural Childbirth class back in April (or was it March?)…anyway, a lifetime ago. Apart from a brief run-in at the pediatrician, we hadn’t seen each other since before the babies were born. It was [...]
