• Bryn, 1 Year

    Happy birthday, little one! We had a small celebration with cupcakes (she ate the frosting off of four) and phone calls yesterday with the “big” party planned for the weekend. Very fun to compare this post with Mia’s (which had some text injected into it by some vulnerability? Ack. Concerned for other posts…). Bryn is also […]

  • The Snip

    At risk of sharing too much, I have been snipped.

  • Bryn, Month 9

    The little bundle is becoming so much more interactive. Waving, clapping, dare I say object permanence is becoming a thing? She’s pulling herself to stand, but not quite cruising. Beginning to get a leg up to head up stairs… Hurray for baby gates! We have teeth with the fourth one just coming in, and she’s […]
