So busy

February 13th, 2010 · No Comments · 2010, Art

We are so busy lately… Add in some very long days at work and I haven’t been able to blog enough lately.
The good news? Jordan is doing well. She’s starting to write her name, she’s getting better at drawing (you can actually understand the shapes and people in her drawings) and she’s starting to really [...]

Party animal

February 1st, 2010 · 2 Comments · 2010, Uncategorized

Sure Jordan is a little young to party all the time… but she did get a chance to go to two different birthday parties over the weekend. She had a blast… But in one of the parties I watched a little girl staring at Jordan and clearly wanted to reach out and touch her arm [...]

Girl’s first musical!

January 26th, 2010 · No Comments · 2010

Jordan had a super cool opportunity tonight… She, her brother and I had a chance to see The Wizard of Oz tonight.

This was Jordan’s first chance to see a musical. It was Cameron’s second (I took him to the traveling broadway show of the Lion King back in 2006). They both enjoyed it a bunch. [...]

The Great Outdoors

January 20th, 2010 · No Comments · 2010, Outside, Playing

It’s refreshing to have a child who is happy to just go outside. Last night she spent 45 minutes or so playing out in the slightly muddy backyard. She spent time on the backyard treehouse and swings. She returned covered in extra dirt in her pretty pink dress… But I won’t complain. I appreciate a [...]

She figures everything out

January 11th, 2010 · 9 Comments · 2010

I shared this on Facebook… but I felt like I needed to share this with my blog friends too. Miss Jordan continues to show me that she can do anything… with or without her helper arm. She got a surprise pancake breakfast and had asked me to cut it up… After I had cut the [...]

Special Exposure Wednesday

January 7th, 2010 · 1 Comment · 2010, Snow, Special Exposure Wednesday

I don’t know how she does it… But Jordan will play outside in the snow forever if I let her. She spent almost an hour during a snowstorm yesterday. When she got inside she demanded hot chocolate. Classic kid.

What a great day!

December 30th, 2009 · No Comments · 2009, Birthday09

Jordan had a great birthday! She got to see The Princess and The Frog with her friends… And it really was a sweet movie. She and I danced and grooved throughout the movie. Jordan clearly likes jazz music. How cool is that? I had a gut feeling that she’d groove on the movie, so I [...]

Happy birthday Jordan!!

December 29th, 2009 · 1 Comment · 2009, Birthday09

It seems like we’ve been celebrating for weeks, but today is the big day. Jordan and I plan to spend the day together. I’m going to take her to see Princess and the Frog. Her two closest friends might join her (the girls who attended her princess tea party 10 days ago). I even got [...]

Snow!

December 28th, 2009 · 2 Comments · 2009, Snow, Video

So… Getting a sled to move in the right direction is tricky for any almost four-year-old… But it’s even trickier when you’re working with one hand. So when I plopped Jordan onto a sled yesterday, she ended up riding in an old-school wooden sled that we just let go. No steering, just sliding. She ended [...]

A video look at Jordan’s tea party

December 21st, 2009 · No Comments · 2009, Birthday09, Princess

I just took all of the video pieces I had from Saturday’s party and put it together quickly – it’s sweet – very little of it is lit well. But I’m picky since I work in TV and criticize people for their video shooting all the time. Good or bad video, you can tell what [...]

An angel in our household

December 14th, 2009 · 6 Comments · 2009, Christmas09, Dancing

Miss Jordan performed in her dance studio’s holiday recital and it was stinking sweet. The funniest part was how she stretched out one of the straps while she was waiting to perform, so she was VERY exposed. But that didn’t stop her from being very cute. Enjoy the video!!

If you can’t see it, enjoy the [...]
