O this girl.

She is going thru a phase.

The one where every bone in her body turns to jelly if you request ANYTHING of her.

The only thing keeping her alive is that followed by every Super-Twerpy phase, is the OMIGOD I LOVE THIS ADORABLE, LOVING CHILD phase.

It's all about balance.

O Goodness.

Aiden is 5 years old.

When he turned three I made him his own video.

I thought it had been lost when the external hard drive EXPLODED.

It was rescued from an old hard drive and is now here for the world to see..

O, I do love that boy.

Worth it’s weight in gold.

Last year our 4 year old desktop bit the dust. It was a sudden and complete blue screen of death.

A blessing in disguise.

After MUCH deliberating with spreadsheets, price comparing and hand ringing..

We bit the bullet and bought a FAST and PRETTY new laptop. 

At the time I wasn’t really concerned with the webcam. I could have gone either way.

20 minutes after we started it up we were playing with the webcam.

All of us get into it. We make videos, Skype and TAKE A BILLION PICTURES.

The best part is the surprise.

Sometimes I’ll be looking for a picture and stumble on something totally random and it makes my day.

Emngooo

Aww.. Dontcha' wish..


just babies, originally uploaded by Michelle.Dan.

Last year at my mom's Birthday Dinner my sweetie and I got spiffed up. I found this picture today going thru pictures we took in 2010.

We are on day two of being snowed in.

10+ inches today in addition to the 5 we got yesterday.

All this "quality time" and you would think we'd be ready to kill each other.

But Nope. Snuggle time on the couch starts in 10 minutes.

Where did this baby go?

bbbw

Emily was 4 years old in this picture.  We still called her Baby Girl back then.

Looking at video of those days she was about 60% misunderstood, we were knee deep in speech therapy and preschool. BUT, what a personality.

I remember this day. I had read a blog post stressing the importance of natural light. But the light was fading so I grabbed her and stuck her up on the entertainment center in front of the window. The silly girl gave me 20 different faces, Happy, Sad, Silly and then this. I think this was with my asking for a serious face.

In June of 2010 my external hard drive up and croaked. I lost over 300 gigs of pictures and videos. It was like losing a limb. Slowly we are piecing together pictures of over the years.. I have a Flickr account and an online baby website and between the two I’m hoping to put Humpty Dumpty back together.
