Saida especially has fallen completely in love with her baby sister and Judah hasn't tried to eat her or give her away so we are grateful for small miracles. <br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/1939.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/s_1939.jpg' border='0' width='187' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />2 days old<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/1940.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/s_1940.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='207' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Father and daughter<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/1941.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/s_1941.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Saida and Solie<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/1942.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/s_1942.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Multitasking before naps<br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/1943.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/10/06/s_1943.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-86515509395634037882010-08-20T22:14:00.000-04:002010-08-20T22:23:41.173-04:00JuneDosa picnic in Washington Square Park. <br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2549.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2549.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Free Judah at celebrate Brooklyn<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2551.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2551.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Sarah and Hilina<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2552.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2552.jpg' border='0' width='188' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2553.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2553.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='188' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2554.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2554.jpg' border='0' width='188' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2555.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2555.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='188' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2557.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2557.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='188' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Hilina's godmother & family<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2558.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2558.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />The waterpark down by the east river<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2559.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2559.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/2560.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/08/20/s_2560.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='188' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />In all the chaos of moving we packed the charger to our camera. So sadly all my pictures from this summer are via my phone or some of the ones above were taken by the lovely Dana. We've had a beautiful summer with family and lots of traveling, and cousins, and ice-cream, and swimming, and birthdays galore, and buying a car, and growing this baby (7 weeks left!). But uploading all these pictures sure does make me homesick. <br /><br />anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-25807507858659726652010-05-24T20:48:00.001-04:002010-05-24T20:48:14.001-04:00late spring afternoon<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/1894.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/s_1894.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/1895.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/s_1895.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/1896.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/s_1896.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/1897.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/s_1897.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/1898.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/s_1898.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/1899.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/24/s_1899.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-83963982566456414882010-05-19T20:51:00.001-04:002010-05-19T20:51:35.945-04:00<br />Judah has entered the delightful "no!" phase of toddlerhood. When he's not feeling it, it's no to everything except those things where it's an adamant "I don't want it!" We've learned to ignore this annoying behavior lest he think he's the boss. That is when we aren't able to tease him back into my sweet snuggly Judah. Most of the time he's delightful although it could be we are just better equiped at raising our second headstrong Leo. <br />Here's a successful effort on Ben's part!<br /><br /><p align='center'><object width="400" height="300"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GIgjiflaf6k&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GIgjiflaf6k&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="300"></embed></object></p><br />anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-41481274159542391702010-05-18T22:34:00.001-04:002010-05-18T22:34:07.451-04:00LatelyOn the way to get flowers<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/18/1987.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/10/05/18/s_1987.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br />Saida had to wear my hat, while hilina chose the sidewalk chalk box to use as a purse.

The kid loves to make people laugh. <br /><p align='center'><object width="400" height="300"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Qa2PnkmRTk8&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Qa2PnkmRTk8&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="300"></embed></object></p><br />anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-48982045781057043042010-02-22T09:06:00.000-05:002010-02-22T09:08:33.291-05:00an oldie but a goodie.judah, i feel like this a few times a day...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_MKUNn3Me3eo/S4KPn6Gj7SI/AAAAAAAABhc/kRHnKhhKIwg/s1600-h/DSC_0087.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_MKUNn3Me3eo/S4KPn6Gj7SI/AAAAAAAABhc/kRHnKhhKIwg/s400/DSC_0087.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5441069215591427362" /></a>anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-59958017718503575162010-02-04T16:14:00.000-05:002010-02-04T16:15:00.115-05:00We moved!<br />We are so happy in our new place.

She was so brave and carefree about the whole thing, hardly bothered her except for carrying the machine around in her backpack. When it got too heavy I'd have to hold it which means we were inseparable for 3 days. Naps, meals, playground, bedtime, etc. Besides marking all her seizures (don't know the exact number yet but it was a lot) I had the added pleasure of keeping her baby brother from trying to pull the wires out. We don't know anything yet but it's over and hopefully they got all the information they needed. She is such a trooper and has more heart than anyone I've ever met... <br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/620.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/s_620.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/621.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/s_621.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/622.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/s_622.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/623.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/s_623.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-91444829626926084282009-10-05T20:38:00.001-04:002009-10-05T20:38:08.181-04:00In front of the museum.<br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/617.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/s_617.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/618.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/s_618.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/619.jpg'><img src='http://blogpress.w18.net/photos/09/10/05/s_619.jpg' border='0' width='210' height='281' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br />anna and benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05539589505008899975noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141709887887361006.post-36177495801165830922009-10-03T20:05:00.000-04:002009-10-03T20:06:00.603-04:00Time<br />2 years ago, right about now we found out who our girls were.
