Compare and contrast

As a quick look back, there have been a lot of changes over the past 7 months. Bea has gotten a lot bigger and has an ever increasing comfort level with us. Her language is really developing now and some words you can even understand without an interpreter. Things that haven't changed: she is incredibly strong, she eats a lot, she has an enormous amount of energy and she is stubborn. Things she loves: animals, cars and trucks, stuffed animals, blocks, airplanes, yogurt and random acts of destruction.

Birthday Part Un

B was born on Bastille Day. However, we like to keep the party going as long as possible. So here is her first birthday celebration along with one for O who's bday is just a few days later.

What she is thinking, "you crazy Americans. What are you up to now? You lit a cake on fire? Why? why do you do this? It's funny, but really weird."

It's not your size, but how low you can get

For no apparent reason, B started using our living room for NFL training camp tonight.

This was Jennifer's tricycle when she was little. Olivia had it and now it is being used by Beatrix.
