My dear friend Emily has been doing a series on happiness on her blog. She featured me this past week. Thanks, Emme, for including me in such a prestigious line up of women!

You can find the post here.

Can’t tell you how much I love this music.

and here is where Lin-Manuel Miranda won best original score…amazing

So there once was a girl, who fell in love with a boy

And then came the Baby Girl, and thus ended dates as we know it

But they were a happy family.  And then they went to a church service auction

And bid on babysitting.  They won!

Here’s what they did with the recent nights of babysitting. . .

and then. . .

Differences Between Versions of the Book of Mormon, in which I lay out the differences between the original version and the current version of the Book of Mormon and whether or not there is any real concern or meaning to it all.

I created a new blog called Dan’s Commentary on the Scriptures. Please take a look. It’s pretty self explanatory. I want to have a place to comment on the scriptures as I read them. I’ve only posted one thought so far, but it’s a start.

Fuse Pictures, my sister’s new film production company. I’ve been working on the content management system and now it is fully ready and functional. I use Drupal for the content management. I find it is the best free content management system out there.

Anyway, my sister is working on some neat new projects, some of which are not yet entered into this new website, but visit often. She is getting ready to produce a movie about our mother’s experiences in leaving Romania.

Ava & I had a blast yesterday after work at the Childrens Museum of Manhattan. She’s so lively!

Every week Dan & Ava go to Daddy-and-Me gymnastics class at Chelsea Piers. Ava loves it! She lays out her leotard the night before, so she has it for the next day. Dan got down there early, so he & Ava did this. Don’t you love this shot?!?!

Today Dan, Ava & I went to the Bronx Zoo. There was so much to see!! We only got to the tigers and animals of Asia & the African savannah before we tired out. The monorail “Bengali Express” was near! It reminded me of the San Diego Wild Animal Park.

Hopefully next time we’ll see the penguin & sea lion feedings. We saw the Siberian Tiger eat today. Wow! They made him a blood-sicle. Not so sure about that but it was interesting.

Here are a few of my pictures. Dan has many more.

Ava: “I gotta put the puzzle pieces in my tea-pop”

Mama:  “Is it a teapoT or a teapoP?”

Ava:  “A tea-pop”

Mama tickles Ava on her legs.

Ava: “Hey those are my bungle-bee pants! Don’t tickle the bungle-bee pants!”
