Grandma Nan's Update: August 2008
http://grandmananupdate.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 26, 2008. Oldest cousin visits youngest cousin. What a lucky girl Saraphina is to have her two cousins closeby. I have 12 cousins and a sister on my mom's side and every one of them is a special friend because we spent a lot of time together as kids. We played together and got into trouble together. Sixty years later, we still laugh about how clever we were. I see some really fun family celebrations ahead. I don't think this one needs any explanation. Friday, August 22, 2008. She is sleep...

Grandma Nan's Update: September 2008
http://grandmananupdate.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 14, 2008. Kris and Shaun found the perfect Halloween costume for Saraphina. But then we realized that by October, she will be too large for it so she is wearing it now in anticipation of Halloween. You can tell she really likes it. During happy colic-free moments, she makes baby gurgling sounds and focuses on near and distant objects. Her favorite focal point is anything with lights. She recognizes Mom and Dad and has given Grandpa Dave a couple of really big smiles.

Grandma Nan's Update: Learning to Speak Saraphina
http://grandmananupdate.blogspot.com/2009/10/learning-to-speak-saraphina.html
Monday, October 19, 2009. Learning to Speak Saraphina. In Saraphina's World everything is a drum. "See that box grandma? It sounds like a drum when you hit it with a drum stick. Saraphina is teaching us to talk as well as drum. She patiently points to things and tells us the words for them. She shakes her head no if I choose the wrong object, such as the stuffed dog instead of the stuffed monkey. On occasion, Amber will agree to have her photo taken with superstar Saraphina.

Friday, February 26, 2010. Lillian Anna Quimby made her entrance on 1:29 am on Thursday, February 25th. She weighed in at 6 lb. 10 oz. Mom, dad, and baby are doing well and expect to go home from the hospital tomorrow. Link to more photos! Tuesday, February 9, 2010. I'd never seen these dolls before. Mom had made clownies for her kids and a Snoopy version for my kids, all made out of Dad's socks. Aunt Selene's Version of Clownie (Ballerina Clownie). Update on Tiny Miss Quimby.

Grandma Nan's Update: Nana, I want that book!
http://grandmananupdate.blogspot.com/2009/03/nana-i-want-that-book.html
Saturday, March 7, 2009. Nana, I want that book! This could be the world's cutest baby. At 7 months, Saraphina knows her name, recognizes her grandmas, holds her hand out for Grandpa Dave to kiss, and drinks water out of a glass. She's also waves hello whenever someone enters the room. She has figured out how to make her toys make sounds, so her playroom is a filled with toy sounds and squeals of delight. It's pretty hard not to smile when she is around. That picture is great. She is so beautiful.

Grandma Nan's Update: November 2008
http://grandmananupdate.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 6, 2008. Behind father Shaun is a couple of photos of Shaun's grandfather, who passed away before Saraphina was born. Perhaps it's no coincidence that his image has been captured in this photo. He would have been very proud of Shaun and of Saraphina. Tuesday, November 4, 2008. Do it for Saraphina!

Grandma Nan's Update: June 2009
http://grandmananupdate.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 9, 2009. Hey Grandma we really need to clean this place up! Saraphina has been crawling for a couple of months. She moves fast but crawling is only a means to getting to someplace where she can stand up. Standing usually involves taking some risks like holding onto wobbly objects. and then letting go with both hands. So she has been practicing falling. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Grandma Nan's Update: Baby Smurf
http://grandmananupdate.blogspot.com/2010/06/baby-smurf.html
Thursday, June 24, 2010. These small footprints are not difficult to track to the drawer where I keep (used to keep) my powdered concentrated food coloring. Saraphina asked her mama to scramble her an egg for dinner. After a few seconds at the stove, Kris turned to see Saraphina fingerpainting in food coloring on the floor. She had blue feet, blue hands, blue legs, etc. By the time this event was over, we all had blue feet, blue hands, and smudges of blue on our clothing. View my complete profile.
