February 2011

February brought more of our everyday routines...one added bonus we had great news on Valentine's Day...we're expecting baby number three! :)

Dyeing my hair at the beginning of the month, Andy likes to give me weird hairdo's when he's in charge of applying color. Love him to death!

Baby bump already??? No, just a big meal...at least that's what I'll tell everyone. (Shhhh)

The boys love playing in the empty laundry basket. Guess it really is a treat since they are rarely empty, lol.

Look mom...I'm so BIG!

Family

The family endures because it offers the truth of mortality and immortality within the same group. The family endures because, better than the commune, kibbutz, or classroom, it seems to individualize and socialize its children, to make us feel at the same time unique and yet joined to all humanity, accepted as is and yet challenged to grow, loved unconditionally and yet propelled by greater expectations. Only in the family can so many extremes be reconciled and synthesized. Only in the family do we have a lifetime in which to do it. -Letty Cottin Pogrebi
