Congratulations also go out to my good friend Johnny Willis and his wife Melissa on the birth of their daughter Michaela. Here she is pictured in the Kobe jersey I got her with grandparents Big Johnny and Roz. Go Lakers!
A belated congratulations to our friends Jeremy and Jill on the birth of their son Jack. Keeping up the J name theme will only get radder the more kids they have and won't at any time seem hokie or creepy.
some are old and some are new
I have a whole series of self-takes started when she was born!
its fun to see how shes changed...
here she has a very wise face...
...but most of the time, shes just not impressed.
Its 1:45 am and I finally have some time to make up for lost posts. Skyla is so much fun now.

Is this lost time thing blowing your minds?
I didn't feel like I had anything smart to say and everything I was going to write sounded really cliché like, "Its been a blast hanging out with skyla!" or "shes growing up so fast!" so, i just didn't write anything for a while until I can shake these lame sayings. Anyway, Here are some of the goings ons of the last few months. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
Skyla gave up crawling completely by her first birthday and a week later we went to the park for the first time as a walker! She didn't know what the deal was with the slide but she really enjoyed the swings
She also likes to walk off without her momma! Shes not very clingy and can be a bit adventurous, sometimes stealing strangers cell phones!
Not quite ready to go to college yet––hopefully not going to be one of the sweat wearing broads at Oberlin.

The following are current pictures of my baby who is a little lady now
She's a ham, and knows it. Skyla's favorite thing is to ask her dad to put her shoes on and go outside! 
Shes pretty cute and her hair is finally growing longer and pretty soon I can french braid her hair and we will be wearing matching outfits.
