Our Little Cupid



Yes, we like to torture our child, but isn't she adorable??? It was so worth the pain. She wanted so desperately to eat the arrow, but I was ready to pounce at any minute. I can only imagine how many germs are on that thing. Yuck. If only we could have gotten her to smile instead of looking stunned. Maybe it was the sight of her Daddy in gold wings and his undies that did this to her? Ok, I am only kidding. Chris kept his clothes on. I just thought I needed to wake you up. Maybe my humor will make you comment?? No, really, I think our lame photographer was enough to put us all in a stupor. She was far from entertaining. Chris and I had to be the idiots for the first time or second time (she was the same one we had when we had her newborn shots taken, which was also supposed to be a sitting with Claire's cousins. I think "supposed to" says enough. Ava didn't want to sit and smile for the log.). She was lame, enough said. On a more positive note? Wouldn't you like to get struck by this little cupid?? Who will be the lucky guy??

Thank you for our card! We loved it (though Josh was concerned about you sending naked pictures of your child in the mail to us!). Whoever snags her will be one lucky guy (who knows, maybe it will be a Brackett boy or a Jakan man! - no that does not mean anyone up here is pregnant!).

Oooo, you had me wondering/hoping for a second, Erin.
I think the "I am winning" comment from my sister was also for you, Erin. She feels you are her biggest rival for the title of
"Best Commenter." A title which will be given out shortly. No, there isn't a Grand Prize attached, but pride of owning the title should be enough, shouldn't it. So, hurry up people, give these girls a run for their money....

I guess we'll know who the "lucky" boy is in about 30-40 years... If this boy knows what's good for him!!!!

Funny you should mention a "lucky" boy. I happen to have one of them and sure would like him to settle down with a beautiful young lady WITH SOME REALLY COOL PARENTS.

I'm just saying...

Well Jess, hold onto your crown! Kara, I knew that comment would have you thinking bad thoughts so I wanted to be clear. Before we have our own little one a few things have to happen (1) you and Chris have to promise to stay in New England (2) you need to have another little one so they can be close in age (3) I need to get a job with great health insurance and (4) we need to move into a better town, closer to daycares and babysitters! You have a little bit of a wait.

0.0

Yes, indeeedy do. 0.0 is exactly the amount of weight I lost this week. Irritating! Here's the breakdown: number of times I cheated on my diet--ZERO! number of times I worked out--FIVE!! (running, no less). Now that is a mean, mean slap in the face. After I picked myself off the floor and resisted the urge to throw the scale through my window, I've come to realize that it is time to call in the big guns. There will be no messing around. Through a very valuable (HA!--sense the sarcasm) inservice this year, I've learned that I am "Green," meaning logical, research based, problem solver, mathmatical thinker. I am applying the same thought and strategy to my 'get fit' adventure. There will be no relying on the treadmill to tell me how much I've burned. That thing lies, LIES, LIES!! Take for example, the fact that each time I worked out, I burned at least 300 calories--most often 350, my pulse was around 87 (which is pretty much a near death resting ...

7 weeks

7 weeks has brought a couple of changes for sweet baby Mya. She is eating 5+ ounces of milk/feeding. Mya is much more awake now. She typically sleeps for about 4 hours during the day, otherwise is checking out this big bad world. Mya seems to enjoy our daily walks. She looks around and is a pretty content kiddo. Claire tends to her pacis if the need arises. We've introduced her to the activity mat, which she enjoys if she is left alone; however, given the fact that Claire too is fascinated by the mat and Mya, being left alone is a rare occurence. Mya sits in the swing daily, although she isn't a huge fan at this point. We're hoping to change her ways. She is strong, holding her head for minutes at a time and loves standing on her little feet. Mya has begun smiling. She has done this consistently for the past several days, but it is difficult to capture such an event on film as she stops smiling the moment you break eye-contact. This milestone is such a heart melting one. Th...

Bouncing Crazyiness!

I do alot of online shopping. When you live overseas, you have to. The BX is thrilling, yes, but it changes out the merchandise only so often ;) When it comes to clothing, if you shop at the BX (which I do as well), you can be guaranteed that at least 3 other people will be seen in the same item. Take for example this little gray vest that I bought. The other day, 2 other teachers showed up in the same one. Thankfully, I hadn't worn mine that day, but you get the point. Anyway, several places do not ship overseas. That's where my Mom comes in. I typically have the stuff mailed to her house and she graciously mails it to us. Readdressing the boxes, running to the post office and mailing our stuff is a major pain. I know this, but she's been so great about it. Priority mail is the way to go. She generally mails it priority and we recieve it in a week to ten days. However, I ordered a "jumpy jump" as Claire calls it, well before Christmas. Since it was so heavy and s...
