Why Won’t You Do What I Want?
Man, those puzzle pieces can be SO FRUSTRATING! Â I mean, I’m just sitting there minding my own business, trying to pick it up and it just won’t cooperate. I try every which way and it just won’t come off the…

Sometimes I just look at my family and they make me want to melt.
I was introducing the kids to some Simon & Garfunkel the other night and Cora started dancing when “Cecelia” came on. She stopped dancing immediately, of course, once she saw that the camera was rolling.

On a lazy day before Easter Cora was playing with blocks in front of a brightly lit window. The photographer in me knew it would be a great opportunity to capture her at play. I love the expressions on her…
Cora has been walking for two weeks but, as you can see from the video below, she’s already well on her way to becoming a soccer super star.
Cora and I were watching football the other day when I suddenly realized that she had been sitting next to me spitting for the last 5 minutes.

It’s hard to believe that an entire year has passed since Cora joined us but time does fly, especially when you are having fun. We had an excellent birthday shindig this evening, attended by many and enjoyed by all.

If you’re a fan of messy babies, you are in luck! This set of photos shows Cora gnawing on her first biter biscuit. It was a messy affair, indeed, and one that she enjoyed immensely.

My favorite food in the world are Marla’s buttermilk biscuits. They’re flakey, buttery and gosh-darn good. To make excellent biscuits you must use soft, winter wheat flower. The lower protein and gluten content makes for softer, flakier biscuits.
Cora has been slow to get moving (despite her love for the movey-movey) so we were delighted when she took her first tentative crawl on Tuesday night.
