We have a nanny!
This month Mindy started coming in to watch Tatiana during the day, allowing Sarah to return to medical school and allowing me to keep my home office a home office instead of a home office/nursery.
As Sarah noted in her last post, it’s really hard to hand littlebabygirl over to someone else in [...]

Well fans…looks like maternity leave is coming to an end. I’m starting school again on Monday. Feeling very mixed about going back, but I think it is going to be okay. I’m really tempted not to go, but if I just stick it out for TEN MORE MONTHS then I’ll finally get that degree! Might [...]

We just got back last night from our first “family” vacation. I was afraid Baby might scream all the way there and back, but she was actually quite mellow (well, no more crying than usual). Rahul had to go to Las Vegas for work, so we all went! We stayed at a posh hotel and [...]

Dear Mommy,
Thank you for taking such good care of me these past eleven months. It’s been really great so far. The first nine months were nice and cozy–very comfortable. There were a couple of hours at the end of the ninth month which were a little rough, but you know how it is–moving out [...]

We went to the Hot Shops open house on Saturday with Tatiana–not her first art show, but her fourth! I thought that once Baby was here we were going to be housebound, but so far we’ve been able to take her out quite a bit. It’s taken some practice, but we’ve gotten much better at [...]

We’ve finally set up our Flickr account! We’ve only titled, described and tagged about half of the pictures so far, but there are 300+, nearly unfiltered pictures for your viewing pleasure! (“Nearly unfiltered” means that there are lots and lots of similar-looking pictures of Tatiana’s face.)

You can always get to our flickr page [...]

My best friend and accomplished bloger, Jeff, has teamed up with some other bloggers to help raise money for issues which are important to them.
To that end, they have started Bloggers for a Cure, a blog where they encourage you to donate the cause, and offer up some really cool prizes you could win. [...]

Well…not exactly. But you can vote for a photograph by my sister Jessica here! At the very least, go read her description about the photo (featuring pregnant Me as the unsuspecting model). I thought it was really sweet.
See her entry in the sidebar!

As I may have mentioned before, we are obsessed with ins and outs around here. As in: food and poop. Very exciting.
This is partly because Tatiana has been a little slow to gain weight–possibly because of a milk/soy protein allergy–which means more food for her and less milk and soy for me (and a party [...]

If only she were wearing her Cal onsie…*sigh*
