All About Eden

It was just a year ago that we found out we were having a little girl. It wasn't the first time we'd seen Eden, but we saw her more clearly than we ever had before, even though it was only through sound waves. But now, a year later, we see her with our own eyes, face to face. Oh that we could see all the ones we love that way soon!

Z made a nest for Eden on the couch. I'm not sure she knew what to make of it, but it was a demonstration of brotherly love, especially evident since Z shared his stuffed animal Spot with her!

The Wisdom of Superman

I had the following conversations with Z today:

Z: Can I watch a superheroes movie on the computer?
Me: Yes, I think that would be ok.
Z: Ok, but just one episode.
Me (suprised): Really? Just one? Why?
Z: If I watch anymore it would ruin my appetite.

And later:

Z (looking at a picture): That man has brown skin.
Me: Yes, some people have brown skin and some have white skin and some have skin that's a color kind of in between.
Z: Yeah.
Me (this question may not have been well thought through): Which color skin do you like best?
Z: (no hesitation): Blue.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday dear Yaya! We love you!!

The Apple Orchard

A couple of weeks ago we went to the local apple orchard. It was a gorgeous day and everyone had a great time picking and eating the apples. After we got home we had so many apples I decided to cheat and use pre-made pie crust. It is the most wonderful thing in the grocery store! I can make a delicious apple pie in 15 minutes instead of 45, and the clean-up is half of what it is when I make my own crust.

Here are a few pictures of the day:
