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.

my workout playlist

I never dreamed I'd be listening/watching this when I worked out, but it is true. Here it is: photo courtesty of Laurieberkner.com I wouldn't have it any other way. My little healthy lifestyle journey is going well. I have exercised 7 days thus far which consists of treadmill activity and an ab workout every other day. I don't pressure myself to run everyday, but I have run 4 of the 7 days. I am quite proud of that. I have never been a runner or enjoyed running, but I have grown to like it. I used to say that I had exercise induced asthma! I think I did, but maybe I outgrew it? ha. Whatever the reason, I am finding it pretty easy to run and maintain a steady pace for no less than 20 minutes each time. Pretty impressive feat for a girl like me. Interestingly, I had planned to take today off, but didn't. I actually had the desire to run. Chris and I are both sticking to the eating plan as well. So far I am down about 4 pounds. Although 4 pounds is plenty, it ...

Pink Family

Chris and I are creatures of habit. We like what we like. When we find something especially wonderful, we tend to go a bit overboard. Case in point--Chinese restaurant in Minot, ND. We frequented it often at least a couple of times per week. This was basically THE place we went out to eat. The host actually started to say things like, "nice to see you AGAIN." We were rather embarrassed and fearful that his line would eventually become, "your usual table?" Thankfully we moved. Since coming to Korea, we've tried every Brazilian Steakhouse (there are 4 or 5), I deemed Ceia my favorite. It has the most delicious white rice with which I put this onion mixture on top and it is oh. so. yummy. We became frequent visitors--typically one night per week. We joked between ourselves that we were going to be greeted as we were dreading in Minot. It never happened, thankfully, but who knows what the staff actually said as they primarily spoke Korean :) Another quirk Chris an...

9 Months

      Claire is nine months old. She is such an active kid, always on the go. She no longer lays nicely when we change her diaper. It is quite the challenge. She is getting rather quick at crawling, so we have to move just as quickly to keep her out of where she doesn't belong--the fridge, cupboards, etc. Developmentally, she is right on track or maybe a bit advanced in our biased eyes. She crawls, pulls herself up, is beginning to move from one piece of furniture to another, mostly eats table food, and imitates us (both in the noises we make or actions--knocking on a door). When we hold her hands, she is beginning to take steps without much guidance. On Saturday, she made her first attempt to climb a step. Sadly, it ended with her sliding down. She has three teeth--two on the bottom, one on top with another coming in on top. Ten things we love about her: 1. her smile 2. her curiosity 3. the way she holds our hands or her own hands when she sleeps 4. her easy-goingness 5....
