what color is my daddy?

yikes she makes me laugh! throughout our time together, you will learn some "gabri-isms". these may be her specific (or pacific) word for a pacific item, or they may be short little stories. either way, i'm sure you will find them humorous.

we were in the bathroom (where we spend a lot of our time trying to earn "nem-a-nems") when gabri said, "mommy, what color are you? you're not white."
mommy: ok, am i peachy-colored?
gabri: yes, and is yaya peachy-colored?
mommy: yes
gabri: and is gabri peachy-colored?
mommy: yes
gabri: what color is daddy?
mommy: isn't he peachy-colored, too?
gabri: no, he's black

wow. i didn't know that!

lions and tigers and (polar) bears...oh my!

checking out the peacocks and ducks

mommy, this sign says don't feed 'em anymore

feeding the ducks

hanging with my friend "yexi"

so this is what i've decided:

i was thinking on the order of which to place my photos. i was going to start from yaya's birth and then move forward. then i thought i would start in the present and then move back, but my monkeys keep doing cute things and i would never get to where i'm going. so here's the deal: i'm starting in the present and moving back while inserting other pictures as i see fit. maybe it will make sense. maybe it will be confusing. maybe i'll even go so far as to "pretend" i'm the quentin tarantino of blogging. all in all, it should be entertaining. if not, you don't have to read it. how's that for disclosure?

inaugural blog



i can't believe it...i finally succumbed and fell victim to (insert dramatic music score here)...the BLOG! i haven't quite decided the format or purpose of the BLOG, so bear with me while it is under construction. maybe this will turn into a great literary work, i will make millions of dollars and retire fabulously wealthy in a little villa in espain. or it could be a quick way for you to keep up on the growth spurts and wonderfully hilarious antics of the daisy girls...we shall soon see. in the meantime...

i have an amazingly gifted, beautiful, blessed, insightful, funny funny funny friend (brianna saban; check out her here) who invited us over for a photoshoot (amazing photog...you should hire her!). here are just 2 pics of what she caught. keep an eye out for more to come!
