Happy Birthday Eliza!

At this time one year ago we didn't even know yet that today was the day, and yet, there she was at 11:40 pm on November 17th! Eliza, you have brought such happiness to everyone you meet. I've been awake more in the last year than I have my whole life and still the time has flown by! Here's to our smart, sweet, sassy and beautiful girl and here's to the best husband and father of my child I could ever ask for! All three of us are very blessed to have such wonderful people in our lives. Thanks to our family, friends and Eliza's teachers for helping us through our first year of parenting. XO, T

Obamanos!

When Eliza looks back on her digital baby book (i.e. this blog), I want her to know what she was doing the night Obama was elected. The 3 of us went over to Tara, Troy and Phin's to watch the results roll in and by midnight we were in bed watching Obama's acceptance speech with Eliza asleep between us. This is the first time I've felt this hopeful about politics in a very long time! Here is a shot of Eliza from the primaries.

Any Age Minutes

 It's crazy what babies will mimic.  Here's Ellie practicing her phone etiquette.  

Next time a telemarketer calls I should try these techniques or just pass the phone to her.
