I took Ada to a (free) dance class to try out earlier this week, and she wasted no time at all dancing her way around the room. Let’s be honest… a dance class with a room full of 18 month olds is a bit chaotic, but still pretty cute when they actually participate. Most of [...]

We met our friends Julie and Jake through a Meetup group for moms in our area back when the kiddos were still pretty small. Maybe at 6 months old? Turns out Jake and Ada were actually due to be born on the same day, and both came earlier than expected. Jake was 12 days early, [...]

I usually carry my little camera around in my diaper bag… that way I can whip it out when Ada does some thing cute or I see something I need to capture for whatever reason. I’d completely forgotten about this shot I took at one of our favorite Mexican places a couple weeks ago… ha! [...]

So I’m totally slacking on the blog… sorry about that. We had a busy, fun weekend. We had two birthday parties for Ada’s friends who were turning one… Mia and Will. Still hard to believe they are one already, but I guess it’s kinda hard to believe Ada’s one and a half too. I’m still [...]

She’s actually had a name for a little while now, I just figured I’d wait a little while to announce it. I obviously can’t keep it a secret, though, so if you’ve asked, I’ve happily told you her name. Which means a lot of you already know… so why not blog about it already! Some [...]

Since I haven’t taken any photos or video clips in the last few days, you’ll have to settle for this guy…
This is the Macaronisaurus that the characters made out of magic pasta on Abby’s Flying Fairy School (on Sesame Street). The dino comes to life, stomps around the room, and SCARES THE LIVING CRAP OUT [...]

Today Ada said “thank you”…… well, “sank suuu.” For once, I wasn’t on her case about saying it when she was given something, and just like every thing else she does, it was completely on her on terms. We were mall-walking this morning (or how about we call it “speed strolling,” that sounds a little [...]

Ada’s been into letters for quite some time now. It all started with the letter “B.” She loved it almost immediately and would point it out any time she saw it somewhere. Her fascination with letters is still going strong, and now she recognizes and can say 16 letters of the alphabet (at least today [...]

With this much personality, I’m pretty sure she could have her own morning show. “Mornings with Ada” does have a nice ring to it. Plus she knows how to accessorize…

On Friday my mom and her mom came to town for the day. Ada was obviously the star of the show, so we spent most of her awake time playing and hitting the mall for even more playing on the playground and lunch with Doug. Ada can say “Nana” no problem, but every time we [...]
