i wear my sunglasses at night...

sorry for resurrecting corey hart's one hit wonder from the 80s. meanwhile, the fam is just gearing up for some sunshine.

visit with the gigas - uncle george, aunt christine, cousins ally and joe...

one of the NY giga fam recently came to visit and meet audra. their visit involved feeding time with audra, snow days, visits to the national underground railroad freedom center, the newport aquarium and the hofbrau haus, luigi's grilled filets, samuel adams utopias, a splash or two of tequilla and great company. looking forward to making the trek to visit you all this summer...hint, hint: reds vs yankees

mini me...

the only thing missing is a tattoo on audra's arm that says "daddy".

feeding frenzy...

recently, audra's been eating rice cereal - and it seems as though the more she eats the more laundry we do. but, she's certainly enjoying herself with the help of the grandparents.

first superbowl (here's to you tiki)...

because the bengals had an awful season, audra had zero interest in her first superbowl. although, she did identify with the baby from the e*trade commercials. millions well spent.

play date...

audra got to have a play date with her friends, sierra and gabby. apologies for the following sounding like an intro to a riddle, but we just wanted to clarify who's who. donna and chris are the parents of gabby while shorty and kim are the parents of sierra. it should be easy to see who's who...here's a hint: daddy's girls.

laughing with mommy...

one of the most wonderful things in the world is to witness a child's laughter. audra has been laughing and having fun for a while now and it never gets old...
