Prime Christmas Age

I am enjoying the Christmas season and I hope you are too! Elise and Daniella are at the prime age for Christmas – they don’t ask for much, they are all about Santa and we are enjoying the activities on the Advent Calendar I made. Daniella may be catching on though as every time she [...]

Coincidence

One of Daniella’s nicknames is Nella. There is a vote to name the new baby beluga at the aquarium and one of the choices is Nala: Abbreviation for “Nalautsaagaq” meaning “surprise gift”. Daniella’s middle name is Halle which we chose because in the baby name book we had, it means “Unexpected gift”

The Boy Next Door

I heard recently that when your young daughter gets her first crush on a man other than her father, you should write down the qualities of the man and compare it to her lifelong mate when she’s older. Well, here is what my future son in law should be like, according to this theory. Meet [...]

Home Tiptoe

Next time you go to Home Depot, imagine my little not quite two year old Daniella saying “Go to Home Tiptoe, now?” Guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

Wook at me! Haha! I’m waffing!

Daniella cracks me up on a daily basis. She is talking up a storm and that is the source of my daily amusement. Elise used to say some funny things too, but she was just not so much a ham. Daniella has the Dencer propensity for drama and silliness and now that she’s talking, it’s [...]

The Other Shoe

A few weeks ago, Daniella was very sick with a stomach bug. About every 48 hours she’d throw up a number of times. For the hours in between she seemed fine. Luckily (well not for me) I was the only other one who got the bug. Poor Erin started his Valentine’s Day fishing me out [...]

Music to my ears

I woke up this morning to the sound of laughing. I thought maybe Erin had gotten the girls up and come back to bed as he sometimes does. But when I got up, Daniella was still in her crib and Elise was playing with her. They’ve been playing together since. I love it!
