We're here too!!

OK, we've been inspired, once again, by the Demkos who recently began their own blog. It looked like lots of fun so here we are too...

So to start off our debut in blog-land, here's a fun video of Fiona being Fiona. This is Fiona and Una the Unicorn (made for Fiona by grandma Connie at Christmas) dancing to Fi's favorite song being sung by Pinkie Pie the pony:



Yes, despite the messy appearance of our house it is still for sale. It's impressive how quickly it can go from very very clean to a complete mess with every kind of toy strewn around and more dishes than should be allowed for just three people.

I'm super excited that I can include videos on this thing and will probably do tons of those, I hope no one's computer explodes as a result. But I know there are grandmas out there who look forward to random little videos.

So here's all about us lately:

Fiona is amazing, I guess that goes without saying coming from a mommy. She's really enjoying daycare, story time at the library, and dance class. She's becoming very good at the forwards and backwards somersaults and she loves bouncing on the trampoline.

Dan's enjoying his weekend work shift still and it's great that we all get to see each other so often. Fi likes having her daddy around so much more.

When daddy is not around Fiona and I spend a good amount of time at the Natural History Museum. We seriously go there every Sunday and spend most of the day. It's the best museum for her right now. Every Sunday they have a live animal show. She's already gotten to pet a skunk, a snake, an iguana, and by mistake a tarantula. She loves seeing the animals outside, especially Jake the turkey and Lucy the otter. Fiona is also fond of the gift shop where she can find any number of soft cuddly animals that she takes up to the counter and hands to the sales lady before I've realized what happened. Fortunately Fiona is very good about giving the animal a kiss and putting it back on the shelf. Unfortunately mommy is sometimes not as good at this and every so often a soft cuddly animal finds it's way to our house.



And now before you go, I'll leave you with a rare moment of tranquility at our house. Picture a tiger, a pink tutu, and Arlo Guthrie. I will say no more and will let the video do all the talking. I hope you, too, have as peaceful and wonderful an evening as this!
