My amazing daughters.

By popular demand, here's Aria with her babushka dolls:



...and here's a proud papa showing off Aria's art gallery:



(editor's note: I've been informed by those in the know that the flamingo actually preceded the squirrel and the chipmunk.)

Lastly, here's our insane 9 month old (!) showing off her physical prowess:

Audrey walks!

Audrey took her first couple of steps today. Hopefully, we'll have video coming soon.

Oh, and the last tooth on the top broke through yesterday morning.

Big week for her. :)

big girl underpants

Hosanna bought Aria her first underwear today. When I got home from work, after I pulled the car into the garage, the door to the house flew open, and Aria came racing out screaming "Big Girl Underpants! Big Girl Underpants!"

quick camping trip

Anyone remember that during Hosanna's pregnancy with Audrey, we tried to go out to Gerle Creek and camp - but got severely rained out, and stayed the night in a hotel in Pollock Pines instead? (Original story here.)

Well, we tried again. This time, the weather was stunning, and we did actually get to camp out for a night. Here are a few pics that tell most of the story. The only things not pictured are:

a) the mosquitoes (lots of 'em - primary reason we didn't stay a second day)

b) Audrey got another tooth (2nd this week!) - this time it's her left top front one. The other top front one looks like it's not far behind, too.
