Color and Words

Big advancements recently amidst the many pages of life. Lots of impressive efforts on the coloring books and many impromptu writing efforts. Happy birthday mama - I love copying your artwork.

Watson Come Here

Today the eldest brother dialed abuelita all by himself. Another lesson in numbers in a world full of them. Today you dialed family - tomorrow ....?

Happy Birthday

On the way back to the Falls Church fire house on your very special day. Mama sure did a great job on your aztec temple cake.

Pregnant School Mom

Upon exiting school on Friday, the school boy found it quite easy to find him mother. He ran up to her and exclaimed - "I knew it was you because you were the only fat one out here." Luckily there is only two months of getting fatter before brother number three hits the seen. Of course if our star had his way the new boy would be named Harry Potter. Only one chapter to go on Book Two. We're having a great time reading through it....

Best Man

Before the age of 5 you took the honor of supporting Edgar in his matrimonial endeavours. And smashing you were decked in penguin shoes and suit amidst the high profile of a houston night.

Big hug

Home from a very long day at work, you were kind enough to greet me at the front door with a bear hug like I've not had before. This empowering embrace lasted at least three minutes before we trod on into the house where you kept me warm over cold pizza.

Honk Again

Traffic is certainly not all that it is cracked up to be, even on a fine saturday. Our young sage's advice to a late merge conflict was 'honk again'.

First Call

Two days before we knew, you told mama that she had a baby in her tummy. Still not sure if your female gender prediction is correct. More on that later. Congrats mama.

Snow Patches, Blue Skies

Very happy to say that the new booster seat works nicely for our short jaunts to school. We kicked the crusty snow on the walk up the albemarle hill.
