My message to the world!!!

I was going to post this on mother's day but then I forgot and now it is too late to actually be for mother's day but I decided to post it anyway. I didn't get around to finishing it but here is what I had. I have a wonderful wife.

...on a platform I'm gonna stand and say That I'm nothing on my own...

These are the words of Chris Martin from the song "A Message" off Coldplay's 3rd album X&Y. As I was thinking about what I wanted to write in my blog about my wife on mother's day, these are the words that came to mind. So here is a list of things that I want to stand on a platform and tell everyone about.

Things everyone should know about Laura

1.Laura puts up with a lot and doesn't expect much out of me in return. (just that I do the dishes every now and again)

2.She is the smartest, funniest, cutest person I know.

3. Everyone talks about how amazing it is to watch babies grow up and learn, which is very true, but you don't hear people talk about an equally amazing event; mothers learning to be mothers. Jane did not come with instructions or rules, but somehow Laura has become a mothering machine (and I am not talking about being pregnant again within a few months after giving birth). She is a wonderful mother and I enjoy watching her be a mother.

4. Laura is a very good cook. She loves experimenting and I get to be the beneficiary of these experiments. We have had everything from Turkish, Russian, Mexican, Italian, Chinese, Greek, etc.

Laura needed glasses and while we were at the store we decided to try a few on Jane.

We tried on some of the kid glasses and they fit a little better but I don't think they are quite as cute.

Here is a video I just put together of Jane's first easter. Again you will be amazed at her overall cuteness!!

We think Jane is really cute!!!!

More Jane!!!

I haven't posted pictures of Jane in a while so here are a few cute ones with a really long video that only Grandma Maggie will probably enjoy.

We tried feeding Jane meat for the first time the other day. For anyone who doesn't know what baby food meat is like just think of putting a piece of chicken in the blender and blending it until it is like a fine paste. That is what it looks like. Here are some pictures from that experienceThis is Jane after a bite of a vegetable variety that she really likes. The next bite was the chicken




Then Laura took another shot as fast as she could and the look put an end to our trying to feed her. I think she thought we were trying to kill her.



Pure Horror!

We love our little baby! She just keeps getting more and more fun to have around. Except for the screaming in the middle of the night, but we are hopeful that she will grow out of that one day.


This is a 5 minute long video for people who want to see action shots of Jane. They actually are really boring but we love them.
