Finally, a new post!

Don't you love baby feet?

Here's our chubby one-month-old!


It's tiring, all of this eating, sleeping, and growing!

London loves her sister!

Hamming it up for the camera. While we were at the Palace of Fine Arts, London was accosted by a paparazzi of Asian tourists who wanted to take pictures with her. Do you think she has a future as a celeb?

Trying to show London how to feed the ducks. She would hold out the food, but lacked the release.

Me and my girls in their Christmas PJ's

London's new car was a hit on Christmas morning. Not bad for $7 on craigs list!


London eating Santa's See's chocolates. The girl has taste.

Merry Christmas!!

Christmas dresses, etc.

Eden Rose

Whoever voted for after December 12 - reveal yourself. You are in big trouble, but also the winner. Eden was born December 14 at 10:42 pm. She weighed 7 lbs 1 oz and was 19 inches long. Here are some pictures from the occasion.

Glamorous!

We though the baby would come yesterday since I started having contractions. Tim even came home from work, but alas, it was a false alarm. Oh well, that just meant the stars were aligned so that London could walk down the catwalk at the Nordstrom fashion show this morning!

Book Recommendations?

I just finished a great book by Jodi Picoult, Plain Truth, a month early for my book group discussion. Now I'm still not sleeping so well and need something captivating...any suggestions? I'm done with the childbirth review and just need something escapist!

New Photos!

Here's what we've been up to the past few weeks... Thanksgiving Day was fabulous. London and I cheered for Tim while he played football in the church turkey bowl, then we had a relaxing dinner with my Dad and cousin, Maret. Maret was kind enough to host us and make the dinner (minus the rolls, which I made, and the pies, which I bought). We watched the Cougars defeat the Utes in a nail-biting game thanks to London's enthusiastic cheering! The girl has learned--last week while shopping in Costco, London looked at the big screen TV's showing a football game. She raised her arms and said with a smile "Go Cookies!" (That's how she says "Go Cougars!) Finally, yesterday we attended the holiday festival in downtown Redwood City with friends, the Bohns, and cousin Maret. They trucked in some snow from somewhere, and London liked it about as much as she liked the ocean in Hawaii--not at all! We were just too late to get a free photo with Santa, because, as his publicist informed us, "We need to get Santa ready for the parade." The people watching at such events is priceless. It's just so great to see people take the opportunity to sport their Santa hats, Rudolph antlers, and Christmas sweaters for the occasion! We watched the parade and as a side show, London and Samuel played by the fountain and kissed. Then we watched the fireworks spectacular! Fun times!
