February is not far away and I find I am unable to write a traditional Christmas post. Perhaps it’s because we have a paltry 207 pictures chronicling Eva’s first Christmas. I might be a little overwhelmed. Instead, I present one tiny theme from our Christmas week. I give you… Captain Eva!* It all started with an innocent [...] Over the weekend the D.C. area was hit by biggest snowstorm we’ve had in years. And in December – it’s virtually unheard of! It started snowing last Friday night and continued steadily through Saturday evening for a total of more than 16 inches in 24 hours. We live close to the city, which means we [...] We flew to Seattle on Thanksgiving morning – it was wonderful to have a relatively quiet airport experience and fly on a half full plane. If you look at our pictures, it looks like all we did that weekend was bathe and feed a baby… well, maybe that’s kind of accurate. There were so many [...] November was a great month. I could write ten entries about November and still have more to say. But now it’s snowing and I’m excited about Christmas, so I’ll write just one. We started out with a trip to Northern California at the end of October to visit my mom’s side of the family. While we [...] On the off-chance someone out there is having a bad day, I give you a laughing, squealing baby accompanied by her crazy mother: I spend a fair amount of time bouncing up and down in front of Eva in large-scale games of peek-a-boo, and I can tell you it’s quite a workout. Dedicated Eva fans should head [...] Eva is six months and one day today. You know what that means – time to expand our food horizons! The rice cereal was a big hit this morning – Eva caught on much faster than I expected and ate a fair amount. I loved her “I’m full” face (below), which also gives you a sense [...] I love generation photos – and by some miracle we’re all smiling in this one. You don’t know how unusual that is for this particular group. I’m not sure when I’ll get through the other 413 (!) pictures from our trip to Northern California, as it’s NaNoWriMo time now, but I’ll post a few on the [...] A few weeks ago, my friend Lisa and I went for a hike at Great Falls National Park with Eva and Lisa’s dog Caleb. As someone who grew up with real waterfalls, I’m not sure I would name these falls “great” (as in “large”), but they are pretty. You should also take a look at some [...] A few weeks ago Matt, Eva, and I flew up to Albany for an event at RPI, Matt’s alma mater. Yes, we have returned to our former life as traveling fools. The flight up was a success, as you can see below. Matt’s grandparents live in the Albany area, and we were able to stay with [...] |
