Happy Easter, a little late. We had a good Easter this year. Last year it was the day after Mallory’s birthday and it snowed and we didn’t do much for either event. This year we were excited to celebrate Easter since Mallory would be able to participate. We knew she’d be good at hunting eggs [...]

CRUD
Posted in chelsea, family, tagged cradle cap on March 19, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Chelsea’s cradle CRUD continues to get worse. The pictures don’t do it justice. It is everywhere. It’s all over her head, including her face, cheeks, on her eye brows, and IN and behind her ears. It’s in the folds of her neck and on her chest. It’s behind her knees, in her armpits, [...]
M&C: Rocking Chair – 23 Months and 2 Months
Posted in chelsea, family, mallory, summary, tagged rocking chair on March 9, 2008 | 3 Comments »
This is Mallory’s second to last of the monthly rocking chair pictures. She’ll be 2 next month. Crazy. After that I may take a picture of her with the rocking chair every year until she’s too big for it.
This is Chelsea’s first rocking chair picture, at 2 months old. She doesn’t bend at the [...]
Bee + Fairy + PJs

I was sorting through Mallory’s old clothes and in the process Mallory found her bee costume, so we put it on her on top of her Valentine PJs complete with fairy wand and pink slippers. She loves to dance so we played her “BEEE!” song (“shoo fly, don’t bother me”) and a dancin’ [...]
Fun in the Snow

I took Mallory out in the snow last night and then again this morning. It’s so pretty to wake up to all of the WHITE! I love it. I’m sure if we lived with it for a season, we’d get tired of it, but having it for just a day or so is [...]
Introducing Crusty!
Posted in chelsea on March 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Chelsea’s new nickname is “Crusty”. You can see why in this picture. She has been dealing with a bad case of cradle cap (seborrhoeic dermatitis) on her scalp and forehead, behind her ears, and a little on her cheeks. This has been going on for a few weeks now. I try to scrub/brush/wash [...]
“Hi Da-DEE!”
Posted in family, mallory on March 7, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Mallory likes to pick up the phone (ALL of our phones) and talk to Da-DEE* during the day. Talk = “hi” and a bunch of babbling. And she tries to cradle the phone between her ear and shoulder. Always the funny girl.
*Jonathan’s title has been elevated to “Da-DEE” while I’m still just “Da-da.” [...]
Snow! In Texas! In March!

Who would have thunk! It snowed several inches this afternoon and even stuck to the pavement (the picture to the right shows a view out of our front door). It snowed Monday night too, but didn’t stick to the roads where we are. The flakes coming down were huge. I could have watched [...]
