Operation Big Girl Bed

Wednesday, 1 July 2009 1:04 P GMT-08
Last night was Felicity's first night sleeping in her new big girl bed.   Normally I would approach this milestone with a lot of apprehension, but she was *so* ready for a bed it's ridiculous.  You see, Felicity was a genuine c

Felicity's 1st Birthday

Saturday, 31 May 2008 12:00 A GMT-08
Actually I should title this "Felicity's 1st Birthday Party" because we didn't do a whole lot on her actual birthday, which was on a Thursday (April 10).  Instead we waited until the following week when her grandparents from Ma

Hello hello!  I am still around.  I realized today why I usually never blog during the month of December -- NO TIME WHATSOEVER!  (Thank goodness that blog-a-day challenge wasn't in December.  I would've surely failed!)Chri

Houston, we have a tooth.

Friday, 7 December 2007 5:15 P GMT-08
Miss Felicity's first tooth has *finally* started to pop through!  I actually noticed it the day of Jeremy's swearing-in ceremony.  I was changing her out of her fancy dress in the back seat, and of course she was screaming because she

Monday, 3 December 2007 7:18 P GMT-08
Okay, I'm officially calling it -- Felicity is crawling!  She has been dragging herself around the floor with her arms for a couple of weeks, but not really using her legs.  Today she started using her legs, not getting up on her k

what to do when you have no time to post? rely on more trusty videos!

Tuesday, 20 November 2007 11:37 A GMT-08
Do you remember me once writing about Tate's "hit hugs" that he does every night?  Basically it's a big hug with a running start.  He'll run run run run run until he slams into you for a hug.  And he's been do

Input...

Wednesday, 14 November 2007 12:42 P GMT-08
As you all probably know, Miss Felicity started eating solid foods about a month ago.  So I thought I would blog about something I'm pretty jazzed about: I'm making my own baby food.  I never did this with Tate, mainly because

Saturday, 3 November 2007 1:53 P GMT-08
I'm testing out new video capabilities on my blog.  (I seriously have no idea what I'm doing!)  Aside from the fact that you have to lie on your desk horizontally in order to see this properly, does the video work???
