Summer Fun 2011

From Summer 2011

HOLY SMOKES what a summer! 3 weeks in Seattle, 3 weeks in New York, 3 weeks in Europe. That's a quarter of Reilly's life right there and boy did she grow... and grow. She is such a little love and we often wonder if her cheeks hurt from smiling and giggling so much. Big sister Flynn is absolutely fantastic with her—full of love and kisses and squeezes. We have so many great memories to look back on in her first 6 months on the planet. Thankfully there are plenty of pictures and videos to jog our ailing memories!!

Flynn turns 3!

From Flynn's 3rd Birthday

OUR LITTLE SCHNOO just turned 3 and with her birthday came a fearsome obsession with princesses. She loves to make believe that mama or daddy are Prince William and she is Princess Katherine, thanks to Flaffers watching the Royal Wedding with her. Sadly, her feet are no Cindarella's measuring in at size 10!! She's full of chatter and general merriment most of the time. Melt downs are few and far between, but pretty epic when they do happen. She loves to tell stories of when she was a woman, such as, "When I was a woman, I had a baby in my uterus," or "When I was a woman, I was as big as Aunty Jade." She is very proud of her new status as Big Sister and is never short of (sometimes too many) kisses and hugs for Reilly. She had a bumper birthday party as you will see from the photos and contentedly proclaimed as she was tucked into bed that night, "Mama, this has a fun day."

Two months just flew by

From April/May 2011

WHAT A DIFFERENCE two makes! The time is flying by faster than ever before—made painstakingly apparent by the limited amount of photo taking and posting this time around. Sorry! Reilly is settling wonderfully into her new family. She's full of smiles and baby talk and has mellowed out dramatically in the last month, entertaining herself for stretches with fans, light fixtures and a very cool mobile. No more gripey tummy issues, knock on wood. The little guzzler has almost tripled her birth weight!!

REILLY MAY DILLAHUNT (AKA Cosmo)

Born on March 26 at 1:38 AM at home to the sounds of Cat Power's "I Can't Get No Satisfaction."

She entered into Brooklyn in the caul, weighed in at 6 lbs 14 oz and measured 20 1/2 inches. She's happy and alert and Flynn is over the moon to have a "baybee shishter." Mom, dad and Tota are all handling being totally outnumbered fairly well.

Please visit sometime in the beginning of April bearing food that can be thrown in the oven and eaten from the same container. It will be returned unwashed, apologies in advance.
