Whhheeeee!

Summer has arrived! It's finally been awesome weather in Minnesota. It makes me understand why the bags haven't been packed & moved to Seattle yet. To take advantage of the weather, the family has been taking many walks. One evening, the parents took Amélie to the park for her first visit. She played on the swings, bounced on a horsey, and:



Ohhh! A big HAPPY B-DAY to the daddy this weekend as he moved "well into his thirties" on Saturday... and he woke up early that morning to see this (that is not him speaking):



So COOL!

Mega-Cheese

Ok, so we're totally first time parents. We think and believe our Amélie is the cutest baby ever born; especially cute is her tiny little red birthmark on her nose.

Sooooo, what we're hoping you'll do is make a vote here for Amélie! Pass it on and hopefully she'll win the cover story photo-shoot in NYC! Nothing like living vicariously through your baby-girl...

Happy 1/2 B-day A!

Well, I've officially passed my first year (I'm a 2L) in law school. Thank GOD. I can also safely endorse the "pregnancy brain theory" because this semester was significantly better than last. Again, thank GOD. I hope the good grades become a trend versus the pregnancy brain that is...

Although, Lady Amélie (as grandpa calls her) is totally worth bad grades and getting stupid (not to mention the spare tire I still have around my waist). Today is her official 1/2 birthday, for those of you bad in math it is her 6-monther. I asked her what she wanted and she said a photo-shoot along with kisses. SEE - she is the easiest, sweetest, calmest, and most rational baby ever born.

We are too lucky (and I'm knocking on wood).
