Repeat after me: I am not a narcissist

Okay, I'm pretty sure it's unadulterated conceit to get such a kick out one's offspring. I mean, really, who am I kidding when I laugh harder at her than I do nearly anyone? That basically means I think I'm funnier than everyone by at least half. Right?
I'll qualify my admission with the fact that I don't actually think she's THAT funny or beautiful or precious or whatever until I go back through the candid shots that I take throughout our endless, one-running-into-the-other-but-in-a-good-kind-of-way day.
Maybe babies are kind of like husbands. They are most appreciated in pictures and while sleeping. :) Pithy right? I know. And not even that accurate...
Thought I'd throw it out there.


Okay, I did this braid in her hair and I LOVED it. I thought, great, I'll do this from now on. Um, yeah, haven't done it since. She's not so much inclined to sit patiently for me to do it. She's ungrateful like that.


Um, who told her she was allowed to grow up? WAH! Ryan and Nicole, is there shot from normal life where your gear is not featured? You no get to take your stuff back. We keep it forever.

Okay, this next series is what tickled my dumb funnybone. Who the heck came up with that phrase anyway. It doesn't sound right.

She's NOT loving life. HA HA!


Holding a grudge for a few minutes before Paul's half of personality kicks in and she's as happy as ever. Love that. I recommend actually clicking on this last pic to get the full effect of baby joy.


One quick observation...notice the industrial size can of Lysol on stage right. Ever since Presh began eating what Paul and I eat, her little droppings have been noxious fumage!!

Wood family unites!

Just a quick update to all those who still bother to keep up with my life via this blog. Austin and his family are coming to visit at the end of this month. So excited to meet Cohen, his youngest and spend time with his family.
Also, Ryan and his family have decided to come down to join the festivities and will be staying at our house! YAYAYAY!
There will be much snacking and game playing and kid-oriented-activity filled days and I can hardly wait.

AZ winters

And this is why we love living in Arizona. Talk to me in a few months and I'll let you know how we're feeling about it. :)

Thanks to Aubry for taking the shot and emailing it to me.
