Year: 2011
9 Month Stats
It’s the last day of 2011… and I’m getting Nate’s 9 month stats up on the blog just 27 hours before he turns 10. I’ll aim to be more timely next year. Weight: 22 lbs 3.4 oz: 76.30% (down from 85.65%) Height: 2′ 4.5″: 59.91% (down from 90.85%) Head Circumference:…
Shark Byte
Well, I wrote that blog earlier today… and then I saw this: How impressive is that?! To think, before he was famous, he used to call my cell phone, babble and then hang-up. (Costa, if you’re reading this… Call me. *wink*)
Impressionist
All parents are over-impressed with their kids’ gifts and talents… it’s just an endearing fact of raising miniature people. Last Thursday Natesy waved goodbye to Grandma for the first time. We cheered and clapped like love-sick groupies. It’s been no different with Jakey. Just a week ago, he was looking…
Dirty Laundry

I’ve never really wondered what the best sound in the entire world is… and then I heard it. The virtuous cycle of Natesy giggling, which makes Jakey giggle, which makes Natesy giggle even harder. I’m sure even Mozart would agree.
Tween
Over Thanksgiving weekend, Jakey started calling us Mom and Dad. And he wouldn’t stop begging to drive the car. Apparently 2 is the new 16.
Ready or Not
Today’s Natesy’s 9-month birthday! I can hardly believe how fast he is growing up. Happy Birthday my adorable baby… or should I say big boy?! It seems he’s just become horizontally mobile and then… last Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, he pulled himself up into a standing position. I just…
Sigma Zu
Maybe it’s all this talk of the Greek debt crisis. Maybe it’s just that “back to school” time of year. I’ve come to a distinct and indisputable truth… I’m the only girl… living in a frat house. And my fraternity house is called Sigma Zu. Case in point: * Cars…
Santa Cruz
Jake only knows the name of one place in the whole world. And I’m pleased as punch to report that once place is… Santa Cruz. I’m so proud. Lately he spends a lot of time telling us about “his work.” “Mama, I need to get my jet shoes. I forgot…
