This Week in Northcutt, Episode 4
It was a wild week in Northcutt land. After putting up with sick children and an out of town husband we treated Marla to a breakfast at Cibo in Sausalito. The lattes and donuts flowed freely.

I started this website a little over 10 years ago, just before Emma was born. It’s hard to believe that that tiny, dark-haired bundle of joy has grown into the smart, beautiful and funny girl you see up above.

Happy birthday, Cora Belle! It’s hard to believe that she’s three already. Walking, talking, dancing and giggling with delight. Who could have imagined how wonderful she would turn out to be?

We were in Georgia for Henry’s 6th birthday a few weeks ago and had a small, understated party. That’s a big difference from the bowling extravaganza we had last year. What’s that?

Since our trip to San Francisco last year Emma has been in love with trollies. When searching for a place for her birthday party this year it was natural to choose The Old Spaghetti Factory in Newport Beach.

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.

Marla and the kids were extra nice to me this year for my birthday.

Our little Henry Owen turned four last week. It doesn’t seem all that long ago that he was as tiny as one of Emma’s dolls and now he’s playing with Transformers, recognizes “Dark Vader” and loves running with a football.

There are also some shots of Cora doing her cute baby thing in this set of photos. She is still a tiny thing, even after gaining a pound and a half and gaining two inches since she came home.

The house was mobbed by cute girls and the air was thick with giggles and dancing. Emma’s 6th birthday party was a princess party, a departure from past non-girlie themes which have included NASCAR and ducks.
