Happy Lunar New Year!

We started off the lunar new year by adopting a fish! I asked Naomi what we should call him and she answered, "Pooh Bear"...but I think she might of been confused and thought I asked her who we should telephone call. We totally got Pooh Bear on speed dial. Anyway, here's a shot of Pooh Bear the fish.

Even more exciting is we set up Naomi's "big girl" bed. She LOVES it and thinks it's the coolest thing since...well, her new fish.

This video is dedicated to Auntie Mimi. This is Naomi and Danny parting after going through the box of goodies you sent! All the clothes fit him so well!

Eventually we want to put a chicken coop underneath this tree.

garden update

I wanted to check on the progress of our root veggies so I pulled the turnip, beet and carrot a bit early. I ended up using the turnip and beet greens with some kale (not pictured) in a pasta dish for dinner. Naomi ate it up! She also ate all the baby carrots even though I asked her to save one for Dad...she just couldn't resist. Check out the mutant radish in the middle! komatsuna and napa cabbage
spicy lettuce and red cabbage

We're back!

Our amazing vacation started off in Michigan. Here's Uncle Nick, Grandma Jane, Papa, Gigi, Danny and Naomi digesting the amazing turkey dinner Gigi had made for us.

Busting out!
Early Christmas morning with Cousin Daniel.

We had such a special Christmas. Naomi was super excited to get this bag, Gigi then had to show her that the actual present was inside.

Thanks for the Elmo dress Uncle Greg and Auntie B!

Naomi and Sophie shenanigans!

From snow to sand. Making sand castles on Fort Lauderdale beach.

Check out the baby belly.. I'm getting big.

We got to catch up Chloe and Luca.

Naomi got a special treat from Gong-Gong and Poh-Poh...a trip to Disney World!

Getting to touch an obscure disney character's nose made Naomi so happy.
but the highlight was definitely meeting Minnie and Mickey Mouse!
