My new favorite family shot

i just love her steel blues and stoic look

she will chomp on anything that goes near her 'mouth eater'

jon's new running buddy

she can not wait to find out what happens next...

busy little spider?
this kid's bored out of her mind, she's ready for
thoreau, whitman, the biggies

or at least dress up like saint teresa

heidi, one of ash's incredibly talented friends,
spent a few days with us. she is about to
begin graduate school at duke.
she plays the harp and sings like an angel.
asha will never be satisfied with my lullabies again.
and last, but not least,
the godparents: chris and cherie
at the end of their 3500 mile road trip
so, so good to see them
because she is so full of tricks
we have been taking more action packed videos than
pics ... she is a rolling, bubble blowing,
growling, singing, slobbering phenom

she has enriched every part of our lives
so, so grateful
