Rosie loves to laugh when everyone else does (even when we’re pretty sure she hasn’t a clue what’s funny). Most of the time, in between chuckles she exclaims, “Joke!” Here she is on March 26, 2010. Continue reading “Joke!”
Joke!

Golden hour #9
The spring sun comes around and lights up the “Compass”:http://j.mp/bw0IQ8 just as I’m getting off work at “North Park University”:http://www.northpark.edu/ these days, so when the girls come to pick me up, everything looks especially beautiful. Lucy on March 10, 2010. Continue reading “Golden hour #9”
Emergency
This news is a bit dated, but it was such a milestone for us that I didn’t want to miss the chance to write it up. Plus, I think I’m finally over most of the mommy guilt, so I’m able to talk about it without kicking myself too hard. Continue reading “Emergency”

Rosie’s birthday interview
It’s become traditional to hold a video “interview”:/news/2008/congratulations/ over the breakfast table with the birthday girl. Today, Rosie is two, and here’s what she had to say about it.

Satisfied mind
We’ve got a new camera, and although we’re thankful for the old one that has carried us through Lucy’s whole life and virtually “every”:/news/image-archive/ “photo”:/news/category/baby/the-daily-lucy/ and “video”:/news/category/baby/video/ ever to appear here at Boyds’ Nest News, we’re delighted with the power of the new Canon EOS T2i. Rosie (here on March 6, 2010) is pleased about something, too. Continue reading “Satisfied mind”
