Baby in a Box
The post title says it all.

A few days ago, we made one of our regular(ish) Skype video calls to the SFGrandparents on the east coast. These calls are always a treat since SFBaby gets to act with my side of the family and see some familiar faces and voices. While we love these calls, we’re not always sure of what [...]

A real page-turner, indeed. We’ve been trying to read to SFBaby on a regular basis. Now she seems to think that all books are exciting! Thus far, her favorite activities with books involve: reading them, and eating them With apologies for the sad cell phone video capture…
