Animal or machine gun?

Here is a link to a little video of Lilia's noises that I have been amiss in sharing with the world until now. First of all is the infamous growl....if you listen closely there are TWO tones to the growl. Go ahead and give it a try...to my knowledge the only other people I have heard split tones are Mongolian singers.

Also in the video is her "machine gun" laugh. Don't know what else to say about that other than that it seems to appear when she wants things really bad (like the camera for instance....how handy).

This video also shows a snipet of our music dates at John and Alex's (our wonderful neighbors). John and I play together and Alex entertains Lilia if Brad is studying which is more often than not. It is wonderful to have a chance to play some of these songs that I haven't brushed up on for 14 years.

Last thing is a crawling bit of footage, Lilia is almost walking so it is a little out dated but it was too cute to leave out.

Enjoy!

Spring Family Pictures

What happened to April and May and how is it already June? This is my attempt to rectify my blog neglect. I have some major catching up to do because we have had a busy few months.

First off.....family pictures taken by my dear talented friend Tabitha (definitely check out her site)

Brad and I chose to do them at Georgetown during the cherry blossom season and it was breathtaking.
