Oops!

I dropped my iPhone 4 in the washing machine today.

I'm seriously hoping as well as doubting its survival.

I may be overly skeptical, but the same fate met my very first iPod, and there was no rescuing that puppy.

Apparently, Apple doesn't create washer-proof products.

Too bad.

Millie's Big Announcement

Our baby girl is growing up

and expecting a new baby brother or sister,

due Sept. 4.


Just thought you should know.

What She's Been Up To

Now, I realize that it's not fair that I'm posting a non-perfect view of my child on here. Especially since I'm sure I never went through any of those non-perfect stages myself. Still, I hate it when anyone misses out on these fun and crazy moments. So for your enjoyment, here are some of M's achievements of her second year so far:


Oh, she looks so innocent.

Yes, that's the contents of the shredder.


No caption necessary. Oops.

Always the helper. She's so nice to clean out the box of wipes for me. . .

...and to empty the roll.


So glad she appreciates my cooking.

Oh good. Here she is "helping" Daddy vacuum. I'm glad I captured her NOT creating a mess for once.

And, for no reason, I just wanted to add this because I like it. Man, I love that little munchkin.

Pretend like I posted this yesterday

Dear Daddy,

With all due respect to mommy, I want to be your Valentine! Please, oh please!

Love,
Millie

Realizations

There's nothing like a day with a sick baby, to make the rest of my life look a lot more productive.

And thus she becomes a one-year-old

Dear Millie,

What a big year.

So many accomplishments--from learning to breathe to communicating and taking some steps.

I am so proud to have you as a daughter, and eternally grateful that you chose to be part of our family.

I love you, baby girl.

Love, Mom

They grow up so fast!

Millie took her first steps today.

Next thing I know, she'll be off to college.
