Happy Birthday Astrid Millay

Astrid was born two years ago tonight and look at her now!



Check out Momo sporting the Pippi Longstocking with those torn tights.


Momo and Astrid up a tree on a little nature hike


We love looking out our front windows to see this dayglow maple tree



The beautiful North Carolina Outer Banks. Here's the soundside...






And there's the crazy Atlantic Ocean


Just me and my girls


Astrid helped me shell these Scarlet Runner beans from our garden...they're purple!


Momo's inspired artwork...with a little parental advice on spelling
The latest on Andrew's school search and where we might move this summer... he's got three PhD advisors interested in him: Tulane in New Orleans, NC State in Raleigh, NC, and VA Tech in Blacksburg, VA. New Orleans offers the most interesting research project, but we're reticent to move so far from family. Also, we know nothing about living in New Orleans...just drinking in the French Quarter! If anyone has lived there or has any advice or info, please send it our way!

One last bit of news that it's still a bit early to spread, but I've never been one for keeping a secret...Astrid's not only 2 years old, but she's going to be a big sister in June. Surprise! (for us, too)
