Our little man finally decided to do it. He's been walking with help for over a month now. At 12 months, he was taking 2-3 steps and then face-planting on the floor. It was only a matter of time before he took off. And we waited. And we waited. And 3 days ago, he … [Read more...]

Taking some time out(side)
To be honest, it's tech week again, and after working on show notes and running errands all day, dropping off Red with my in-laws and working 8 hours at dress rehearsal, I'm pooped. Too pooped to post. So, in honor of the last dress/tech tonight for GYPSY at The Atlanta Lyric Theatre, I … [Read more...]
Visiting Grandmother

Flashback Friday: The View from Up Here

(Hubs has a four generation photo of the men in his family from when he was 1 year old). Red had turned one month … [Read more...]
The Water Table
Red got a water table from Nana and Papa Paris for his birthday, and so far, he loves it! There have been a few birthday parties where water tables have been present, and he's a GO for all of them. Although, I think if he has younger company, he tends to stay and play longer, rather than … [Read more...]
Feelin’ Froggy
When we went to the pool to celebrate Aunt Caroline's birthday, she found a tree frog hopping nearby the pool (most likely trying to get into the pool)! Bringing it over to Red, she brought it down low for him to examine:I'll say that the frog was very calm and very brave to have a giant one … [Read more...]
