Sky Walker

First video of Skylar walking (the "chimp walk" stage).

Cold and Teething

Cold and cough and molars...oh my! Sweet teething biscuit only happiness.

Sky's New Cousin

Scratch That Itch

An oldie but a funny. Daddy scratches Sky where she laughs.

Petite Fleur

I had to override the original clang-bang soundtrack, but couldn't resist putting these "Little Flower" images to Angelique Kidjo.

First Birthday (director's cut)

September 6, 2010. With Dad and Mom, Alex, Martin, Isabelle, and grandparents Louise and Ed via Skype.

Feeding Daddy

From earlier in September.

Over My Thumb

Here is a mega mom wrap of gauze and tape covering sky's scrapped thumb. A tiny top layer of skin got scrapped into a flap on a sharp drawer she was playing with. Boooo! There was blood and everything. Then today it looked a little infected. A stop at Rite Aid got us all cleaned and covered. She had this giant thing on for her nap, swimming and dinner. Now it's breathing for the night. Hope it's ok in a.m. (Aub from Portland)

Portland Park Play

Party dress n daddy. Henhop hill. Mt hood lookin good

Henhop hill is the beginning of our off-road trek through the park looking for the rose garden wedding site. Parking was really bad due to a concert. High heels. Full suit. Stroller. 2 bags of loot. Up we climbed laughing all the way. If there had been any mud on hill or loose gravel on the maintainance trails, we found we would have shown up far worse than sweaty. 

Sky handled pretty well through all the chaos of the wedding and loud noise of the reception. More to come.

Meeting grandma Marietta

From trip to Portland, Skylar's first trip "abroad" and first air flight. Auburn is hoping for better photo of everyone from wedding.
