Doing dishes, I turn around to see this-

She's pumping with aspirators! (nose bulbs) So inventive.

Goodbye gummy smile.

Stryder's first two baby teeth are coming through! As much as I looove that gummy smile, it's always surprising how the more teeth come in- the cuter the smile. Maybe now the kid can be happy more than once in a while.

Watching inauguration of Barack Obama.

Hooray! 6 months old today!

I'm so thrilled that Stryder is getting to be a big boy now. He still is really in touch with his wild and screaming side. But now he can play with his sister and laugh and make the cute scrunchy face! We love you Stryder-bear!
