Congratulations to our dear friends Pepijn, Anne and their son Jack on the birth of their first daughter/sister Maxine Bruienne. Born on June 13th, 2007 in the weee hours of the morning. Weighing in at a healthy 7lbs, Maxine is 20 inches long as birth. She’s absolutely gorgeous, and is already a fabulous baby.

Speck gets a visit from some very special people from all over the place.

Speck got to celebrate her 1st Birthday weekend with some very special people who came from all over the land. Pop pop RC, Mom mom Barb, Mom mom Brenda & Aunt Maria came from Philadelphia. Uncle Mitch came from Chicago & Cousin Devin came from Alta Loma (CA). Everyone had a blast and we hope they come back to see us real soon.

All of us at Dinner at Fogo De Chao on Saturday June 9th 2007.

Speck’s 1yr checkup

Speck had her 1yr Doc’s visit on June 11th 2007. Doc said speck is growing steadily. She looks good for a 1yr old. She’s in the 25th percentile for her weight and in the 75th percentile for her height (how did that happen?!?!). She still not 20lbs yet so we’re still riding in the rear facing car seat. ARGH!! but it’ll happen soon enough. We’re patient. She’s a petite baby. hehe Not for long with our genes.

Speck’s 1st Birthday Party

Speck’s Grandpa Subhash called from India. Speck’s Grandaunt Neerja, Granduncle Kamal & Uncle Nikhil called from Chandigarh, India, to wish her on her birthday. Speck’s Grandaunt Nisha, Uncle Anees & soon to be Aunt Nauras called from Pune, India. Speck’s Aunt Louise & Uncle Steven & Cousins, Max, Jeremy & Ian all called to sing Happy Birthday to Speck on this very Special day also.

Speck turns 1 yr old ?!?!?!?!?! WHA??

Say it ain’t so! Speck has officially turned a year old. WOW!!! It’s so hard to believe that an entire YEAR has gone by already. It was just yesterday that we were at the hospital and then boom the doc said congratulations you have an adorable little daughter.

Thank you Speck for coming into our lives & bringing all the wonderful happiness with you. I (as the mommy) have been lucky enough to watch every little change and experience and it’s been so amazing and phenomenal. We look forward to many more years of amazing things yet to come.

11 month pics updated

It’s been a wonderous 11 months (almost 12) and every minute has been enjoyed and relished. Even the wakeful teething nights. So lucky to have had this itty bitty person bring so much joy and happiness to our lives.
