Sweet Potatoes

Delia came over last weekend to give me a lesson in how to make my own baby food. She promised that the food tastes better and it would save me a lot of money. So we drank lots of wine and we peeled, boiled, pureed and froze a million tiny containers filled with fresh food for Brixton. I was so excited to give him his first bite of homemade sweet potatoes...
After all that work...and he didn't like them at all!!! Not to mention the gigantic mess...


Even though Brixton didn't really like his meal, we still had a really good time. Nick took over the video while we picked up after dinner...the loud noise in the background is the food processor. Brixton makes the sweetest face...

After we cleaned everyone up, Lucy and Brixton got in their Christmas pajamas from Old Navy. Lucy calls them her "Christmas Brissons". How cute are they???

Here's Brixton trying to give Lucy a hug...



Say Cheese!

Lucy Turns Three!

We went to a baby shower and they had a bouncy house for all the kids. There weren't that many kids using it though, so Lily was nice enough to take Brixton in there for his first time. He LOVED it! I know, I know...Brixton isn't wearing any pants. It was SUPER hot and he was wearing jeans so I just decided to take them off. A bit trashy, but we were around family ;) The next day, we had Lucy's birthday party at Hacienda Hughes. It was a pirate theme, and true to form, Dad had to create something EXTRAVAGANT for the kids to enjoy. So he drew a giant cardboard cutout of a pirate...complete with a 3D bird and doubloons! Kaiya and Delia A very fun potato sack race! Pinata time! Here's Lucy enjoying her loot while she waits patiently to open her presents...I think Brixton is wondering where his candy is! Look at the plane! Brixton was very happy to sneak some of Fisher's blueberries! A potato sack race just for Lucy and Brixton! Delia is attempting to make a &quo

Saturday Morning Sweetness

Image
On Saturday morning, Tzaddi went to play disc golf for the first time in 3 months and Brixton and I stayed home. Brixton was in such a good mood and he was so chatty! Of course, this is his usual expression...I think he frowns on purpose so that I'll smile at him and then he can smile back! Pixel has become increasingly interested in Brixton. She likes to see just how close she can get before we yell at her. She also really likes trying to lick his face without us knowing. Luckily, I caught it on camera! Although Brixton doesn't look too upset, does he? Now, this is a rather lengthy video and you have to listen to my horrible singing but I promise you it's worth it! We were listening to B is for Bob and Brixton enjoyed the impromptu live concert.

It's Been Three Years

Image
It's been exactly three years since Rowan passed away. It feels like yesterday. In just a bit over a month from now, Rowan will have been gone longer than he was here. We still miss him more than words can say. He taught us so much: How to love How to be loved Compassion Empathy Hope Gratitude Rowan will always be our first child. Rowan will always be Brixton's big brother. I can tell you exactly how we spent every hour on this same day three years ago. I can tell you how the final roller coaster started four days ago...three years ago. I remember making the call to my family; telling them to come right away. I remember listening to Tzaddi as he told his family to get on the next plane. Here's a glimpse into our lives three years ago...and perhaps a glimpse into yours. Nikki (Rowan's daily nurse) Kate (Rowan's therapist) Cousin Quinn Aunt Carleen Auntie Delia (with Lucy in tummy) Nana Noni Jill Kristy Uncle Nate Poppy Tops Auntie Delia & Uncle Nick The Fat Nana
