I put up the Christmas tree yesterday and a flood of memories came rushing back of what I was doing just one year ago. I was 7 months pregnant, feeling good but different in my new body, and wondering what motherhood was going to be like. Now, just 12 months later, I can hardly remember [...]

Ahhh…Parenthood

One of my favorite things about the new iPhone 3G is the fact that you have an instant video camera at your fingertips. Then, to make it even better, you can now text video and photos. Before I upgraded my phone I analyzed the features and really didn’t think that I would use or care [...]

Mover.
Coleman, that’s what word describes you best as you turn 9 months old this week. I think that you are even happier than ever because now you are independent enough to go where you want to go on your own instead of having to wait around for someone else to do it for you.
You still [...]
Help With the All Too Common Cold
Posted in Motherhood, tagged baby cold, Motherhood on October 24, 2009 | 27 Comments »
Coleman has a cold. I thought it was just teething (he officially has four new teeth that have broken through) but then came a little cough and the runny nose that is has escalated into the “eeew yuck” category. It doesn’t alarm me. No, I do not think he has H1N1. But I am curious, [...]

Now that Coleman has perfected his stellar scooting ability, he continues his fixation with large wooden beads in the following edition of “ColeTV:”
And I have to tell you that I’m grateful today, in a big way, for Jason’s willingness and expertise in making home movies…it’s nice to finally have someone else [...]
A Month of Firsts

Last year on October 1, Stacy Julian spearheaded a Blog Blitz that focused on celebrating “the present” where we each created a mini, mini scrapbook of our present life. I think it’s fitting that today, as she revisits this concept one year later, that our newest month of the Big Picture Scrapbooking workshop, “A Life [...]

Counter Collage
Posted in Motherhood, tagged face time, Jason Hall, quadriplegic father on September 2, 2009 | 3 Comments »
I have to learn how to use Rhonna Farrer’s Storyboard Collages for Photoshop (anyone a pro yet?). In the meantime, Jason wanted a collage of some of our absolute favorite photos of Coleman taken last week. So, I whipped it up without Rhonna’s help and will figure hers out later – I’m thinking the chances [...]
Cole at 7 Months

How is it possible? You pray and hope for someone tiny and new to come into your life for so long and then all of the sudden they have been with you for seven months. It doesn’t seem real yet at the same time, it is the most natural and lovely thing you have ever [...]
