My Sister and Inside Jokes

This is my youngest sister. Some of my junior high friends might remember the joke.

Old Pics, Volume I

I haven't posted many pictures here since we started moving around in June of last year. I have taken a lot, as you are about to witness. Though you must realize this is the modern equivalent of boring family slide shows. You have been warned.

The following were all taken in June, our last full month in Pinehurst.

Pirate Princess Naomi

Filling Papa's shoes

An actual, untampered with view of Adara's bedroom floor. The diversity of toys gives me hope that the princess theme will not dominate her playtime. (As some items may not be readily identifiable, there is a Princess Aurora Ballerina doll, a miniature ambulance, and I believe the yellow thing is an upside down plastic killer bee.)

One last offering for tonight -- I chose it because it documents Naomi's hair really well. The video is probably not terribly interesting to anyone except for me. In my mind, Naomi is an adorable, charming, beautiful child. Obviously my view of her has been, *ahem* enhanced, *ahem*.

P.S. I recently called my mother to discover where Naomi's red hair comes from. My paternal grandfather apparently had auburn hair that could pass for dark brown in certain situations. My mother's father's father, I am told, was a carrot top. Why the red hair genes have skipped several generations, and trumped the supposedly "dominant" brown hair gene, remains a mystery.

Christmas

Nope -- still no holiday blog post for me. Have a ton of pictures, but taking a picture of the 3 babies is much, much easier than sitting down at a computer with 3 babies trying to play on the computer with you.
