So a million things have happened since our latest family vacation, but I thought I should at least get a few pictures up here to document the story. Sorry it’s taken so long.
Back at the end of January, we took a little family vacation down to Florida. We spent three days in Fort Lauderdale doing […]

One of the ladies in my Stroller Strides class just send around a link to this adorable site, Sport Princess, that I think is pure genius! Who doesn’t want to teach their daughters that they can be girly and frilly yet sporty and hardcore?! It’s the perfect balance. I highly recommend you check out their […]
Daddy Daughter Dinner Dance Date
February 18th, 2010 · 3 Comments
Last weekend I went to Seattle for a couple days to a Heritage Makers conference. While I was away, Sim and Ana attended the Daddy Daughter Dinner Dance that is put on each year through the Tualatin Hills Parks and Rec. I couldn’t have planned it better than to have a special activity for them […]
Starting Pee Wee Soccer
February 4th, 2010 · 1 Comment
On January 20th, Ana had her first day of Pee Wee Soccer class. She has been eagerly awaiting the day she could start playing soccer and in the Tualatin Hill Parks and Rec district that magic age is three. So as soon as registration day came, I camped out in front of the phone and […]
Ana’s Tea Party
February 4th, 2010 · 2 Comments
I wanted to make a big deal of the fact that Ana is (finally!) potty trained, so a couple weeks ago I put together a fancy little tea party and invited all her little girl friends to come celebrate with her.
I found these adorable little red tea cups on sale at Ikea and they set […]
Three Year Doctors Appointment
January 7th, 2010 · No Comments
Ana had her three-year doctors appointment this morning. Here are her stats from the appt:
Height: 37.75″ (65th percentile)
Weight: 30.4 lbs (50th percentile)
BMI: 150 (30th percentile)
Blood Pressure: 84/48
The stats I provided are a little different than I am use to. BMI? Blood pressure? It’s crazy that we have to start worrying about that stuff at three […]
Surprise Snow of 2009
December 29th, 2009 · 1 Comment
Today while Sim, Ana, and I were sitting at the kitchen table eating lunch I happened to look out the window and noticed a few tiny little flecks of snow. They weren’t even really flakes but it was snow! Then by time I put Ana down for her nap giant cotton ball-sized snowflakes were falling […]
A Letter: Thirty-six Months
December 17th, 2009 · 3 Comments
Dear Ana,
Last week you turned three. THREE. I don’t even know how it happened. I know it’s a total cliché, but it seems like you were just born yesterday. Yet it’s almost impossible to remember life without you in it. But why would I want to? Ever since you were born my life has […]

Happy birthday Ana! It’s hard to believe you were ever so tiny. You are growing up so fast, but you will always be my little girl. I love you!
P.S. Your monthly letter is coming soon, I promise. Kisses!
Ana’s First Ballet Recital
December 8th, 2009 · 2 Comments
Today was Ana’s first ballet “recital.” I put it in quotes because it was technically just the last day of her Three’s Tip Toes ballet class, but her amazing instructor, Teacher Katie, had them preform on the stage. And, as Ana informed me, “we can have mommies and daddies and grandmas and grandpas there!” which […]
