... to love and be loved marks true happiness ...


'Natasha, to love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But, then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer, to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love, to be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy, therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness, I hope you're getting this down.'
-- Woody Allen


I'm off to see the wizard!

Livvy and I have been having a wonderful time here with Lola Susan (Grandma) and Lolo Ed (Grandpa) in the middle of Kansas! Amidst the varying temperatures -- one day, cold blistery bitterness with a high of 12 degrees (I'm grumpy these days); the very next day, sunny, warm and gorgeous with a high of 75 (instant happiness these days)-- we are quite contented and keeping toasty (or cool) inside. I wonder what the weather is like back in the bay...?

I haven't yet taken her to the Kansas Motherland (aka Super Walmart). Perhaps soon I will. Where else will she be able to go where you can buy a new set of tires, a head of lettuce, toothpaste, a yard of fabric, a toilet seat, plant soil, a new couch, get your eyes checked, your hair cut, your taxes done, your packages mailed, eat at Subway, buy a goldfish, a swimsuit, a barbie, some fresh(ish) shrimp, a hammer, and an engagement ring all under one roof? (Okay maybe Costco but that's probably if you need at least 2 toilet seats.)

Liv is a few days, perhaps a week, away from rolling completely over. She can get from being on her back to a nice little face plant but still mainly on her side. I think she's still discovering her hands as potential partners in this transition, but for now, she just tries to turn over using her nose and the occasional push-off with the tongue. You sort of feel bad for her, she puts so much energy and effort into it with only partial success, but we must admit, it's hilarious to watch. I'd put a picture of her like this, but all the ones I take just look like we dropped her like that.

She's really growing so fast, it's bittersweet.

This is her wrapped in a pillowcase. She's loving it, can't you tell? All her blankets were in the wash, and well, this actually just ended up working out so well.


I have no idea what she was making a face at, but I had to laugh out loud.


So glad we brought the travel swing with us! She gets so excited and giggly sometimes- next time, I'll put maracas in her hands.


Bed Head and Chubby Legs -- that's a great band name.
