evie would sing her abc's for you, but there are just too many distractions.

happy family
i need to get around to writing more about our trip to florida, but here's a nice picture from the last day that sums it up. the smiles on all our faces say it all.

er, um, not quite...
so this morning i'm getting out of the shower and evie walks in. she points at me and says "mommy's penis!".
let's go over that anatomy thing again...
we're off to florida to see grandma & grandpa tomorrow!

i did it!
so i survived my first trip away from evie. i left sunday night on the red-eye for boston, with plans to return on tuesday evening. mike and evie drove me to the airport. evie and i held hands and she sang to me. she knew that i was going away on an airplane. kisses and i love yous and i was off to the plane. i was sad as i walked away from the car, but no crying.
i missed her.
she woke up on monday morning and told mike "mommy ride the airplane", then that's pretty much the last time she mentioned me. too busy having fun with dad.
i got home late last night, and peeked in to watch her sleep for a bit. she appeared to still be in one piece. in the morning i went in her room to see her when she woke up. first words out of her mouth? "daddy's turn."
yeah, she did fine.

25 more things about me - the motherhood/family edition
so i didn't want to make the original list all about evie & mike, so i decided to give them their own list.
1. i have a daughter named evelyn, we call her evie. she's named after my mom's stepmother, the only grandmother that i really knew. she was born on march 23, 2007
2. i gave her my last name as her middle name.
3. i always wanted to be a mother, ever since i was a kid.
4. when i turned 30, i realized that it might never happen for me, and i got ok with it.
5. in 2003, i walked into a room to watch a raiders' play-off game and met mike. i didn't know i was going to marry him, but i knew he was going to be something very special and important to me. our first date was six months later. we got married almost exactly one year after our first date. i was a few weeks shy of 37.
6. our wedding was planned in 10 days, and an amazing array of friends came together to help create the most amazing day i could ever imagine. it still makes me smile to think about any part of it. i felt beautiful and special.
7. i decided to wing my wedding vows, mike went first and completely blew me away.
8. it took us a year to decide we wanted to have a baby, then it took another year before i got pregnant. i'm pretty sure i got pregnant the night that we decided to give up.
9. i knew that evie was going to be a girl, even though the doctor's never told me. i figured it was because i was terrified of the idea of having a girlie-girl.
10. i did not really love being pregnant. months of cankles get old. pre-natal yoga helped.
11. i grew really attached to the name "guido" during the pregnancy - mike, not so much.
12. i took a couple of birthing classes, but they were unnecessary since she was breech and i had a scheduled c-section. piece of cake. i heal fast.
13. i felt exactly how i thought i would the first time i saw her. what i didn't expect was how much more i would love her every single day. there was no way i could have understood until it happened.
14. i used to put her to bed listening to tom waits "closing time". now i sing "time after time" and "country roads" to her. last week, she sang "time after time" to me. it was the best thing i'd ever heard.
15. i despise thomas the tank engine and anyone involved in its production. this is a repeat from my other list, but i thought it beared mentioning again.
16. i spend fridays with evie and a group of other moms and kids. it is a true luxury.
17. i love having dinner together every night as a family.
18. i wonder what the right thing to do is about religion. i was happy to have been raised catholic and to have decided that it wasn't for me. i'm not interested in a formal religion for myself, but i enjoyed the moral framework that it provided me growing up. i hope i will do the right thing, and that she will feel like she is part of something bigger than just herself.
19. i have a wedding ring, but i don't wear it because it is made of white gold, which it turns out contains nickel, which it turns out i'm allergic to. it's a beautiful carved ring with 5 small blue sapphires. someday i will get around to having it remade in a metal that i'm not allergic to.
20. i will be forever grateful to all of the people who encouraged me to become a mother.
21. i am much more vulnerable in the world now. there is so much more to lose.
22. i love how much mike loves evie.
23. i love how much evie loves mike.
24. i would rather hang out with mike and evie than do anything else.
25. i feel blessed.

25 random things about me
ok, this is a repeat of something from facebook. i received a note to put together 25 random things about myself. i enjoyed reading the lists put together by other people, and i enjoyed putting together mine (there are two, so this will be a two part post). i decided to add the lists here too, since this blog is sort of evie's baby book, so i want her to be able to read this someday, and i wanted to share it with folks who aren't my friends on facebook.
1. i can't believe that i'm 41 and i still rent an apartment.
2. my mom drives me crazy, and the longer i live, the more i realize i am like her - and the longer i am a mom, the more i appreciate her.
3. i love to eat pretty much everything, except lima beans. and i tolerate raspberries, but i don't see what the big deal is.
4. bjork scares me.
5. i'm proud that i grew up in a small town in upper michigan.
6. i'm proud that i got a degree in mechanical engineering, even if i haven't done anything with it in well over a decade.
7. i love living in san francisco, where anyone can be what they want to be and no one really minds. i don't even want to be anything particularly different, but i enjoy that others around me can be free. i wish people everywhere could be so lucky.
8. i wish that i could sing - you know, in a way that people liked.
9. i wonder what kind of person i'd have been if i was born before suffrage. i like to think i'd have fought for women's rights, but i wonder.
10. i love being at home with my family and to have friends come over. bonus points if they just stop by.
11. i wish i had a yard.
12. i feel blessed to have spent the last 18 months of my father-in-law's life close to him. he was a one-of-a-kind crotchety old man who helped me understand that there was room in my life to love more than one person, and that i wouldn't be giving up a thing if i had a baby.
13. i used to be a lot smarter, i swear. i think it mostly has to do with the degradation of my memory.
14. mike shows me he loves me by going to the atm and filling up the gas tank (two things i don't like to do), i show him i love him by cooking and keeping chocolate in the house. it truly is the little things.
15. i worry a little about raising my daughter in such an urban environment.
16. i hate thomas the tank engine.
17. i am surprised by how many friends i have after growing up a little bit of an oddball.
18. my dad is one of my best friends.
19. i wish i could go back and do my college degree all over again - i think i'd get so much more out of it this time around.
20. i still feel like an oddball sometimes.
21. i wish i could win the lottery without buying a ticket, cause it really does seem like money could make life easier.
22. i like to work.
23. i only get my hair cut every 8 months.
24. i would make a good benevolent dictator
25. i feel blessed.

evie's first "bra"
so evie has moved past boy parts to have more of a fascination with some girl parts these days. yesterday morning when i went to get her out of her crib, she grabbed my shirt, pulled it down and grabbed at "breasts, mommy's breasts".
hmmm. well, yes, those are mommy's breasts. they're not for evie (anymore). we've gone thru this a lot lately. she just seems a little interested in what they're all about.
later in the morning she was digging thru mike's night stand and pulled out some eye shades which she immediately put around her neck and said "bra, evie's bra".
she wore it to the grocery store.

oy
is it friday the 13th yet? cause it really felt like things were aligning against us. evie and i started our friday together battling over getting dressed. she was perfectly content to wear her pajama top and diaper all day today. she really didn't want to take that pajama top off. it took me over an hour to finally get her dressed. it may not sound like a big deal, but it can be a tad exhausting.
next up, we headed over to the presidio to meet up with our friday friends at a playground. this was actually really nice. the playground is really nice, and compared to the playgrounds in our neighborhood, it was like the ritz. only problem? poop. evie's system was a tad, um, off (i'm guessing the black beans for lunch and white beans for dinner were the culprit). we're talking six poopy diapers in a day. three while we were out. thank goodness i had three diapers. the only thing worse than six diapers in a day is six diapers and diaper rash. the poor thing was in pain every time she went.
ok, so combine an upset system and diaper rash with tooth number 20 and throw in a stubborn temperament (i think she gets that from her dad) and we didn't have as much fun as we do on a normal friday.
but all was not lost. she sang "time after time" to me this morning in the midst of the clothing battle. i believe it was self-preservation as i was beginning to look for a band of gypsies to sell her to. then at dinner tonight we had family singing. "twinkle, twinkle", "goosey goosey gander" and "row row row your boat". i'm just going to have to say that we rocked.

a song
i wanted to get evie out for a while yesterday, but it was cold, so i decided that we would go out and take a ride on the F-market streetcar. evie loves riding the train, and the the F is an old fashioned streetcar that you can catch pretty much at the end of our street. we had a fun ride, a good walk on market street, and avoided the rain that started falling while we were out without an umbrella.
on the way home, i asked evie if she wanted to sing a song for me. she started singing in her quiet, high-pitched voice. i listened for a bit trying to figure out what she was singing. sometimes it's "goosey gander", others it's a sesame street song about "penguins by the door". this one took me a second to place. i heard "clock tick think of you".
oh my! it's "time after time". the cyndi lauper song. i sing it to her whenever i'm putting her to bed or i want to calm her down. she proceeded to sing a whole verse to me.
i almost cried. i'm tearing up just thinking about it now. who knew she was listening?

making the best of a rainy day
we spent last friday at the conservatory of flowers where there was a special train exhibit and a few of her friends. it was a rainy day, so it was good to have something indoors to do. after the train exhibit, we headed over to the academy of sciences to see some fish and play for a while. heading back to the car after lunch, evie decided the best way to have fun in the rain was to test out her new rain boots. in every puddle along the way. good times.

19/20
we are 95% of the way thru the baby teeth now! i felt #19 coming in last night. i finally remembered to check after a bad night of sleep and a couple of grumpy days. i will say that this was the easiest of these last three, so that bodes well for #20, whenever it decides to make an appearance.
the only question now is, what will i blame every temper tantrum, low fever and all other matter of bad behavior on?

witnessing history
yes, i did. i made evie sit and watch the inauguration with me today. i'm still smiling.

a near perfect day
while i'm sorry for everyone in the rest of the country that is suffering in the middle of a deep-freeze right now, i'm really happy that we are experiencing the opposite here. the weather has been in the 60's and 70's for more than a week, and the sun hasn't stopped shining. it has been lovely, and we've been out and about as much as possible.
when i woke up on saturday morning, i decided i would try to make french cheese puffs (gougeres) for breakfast. i had made them a few weeks ago, but things didn't come out right, and they were more like crackers than puffs. this time, they were nice a puffy and cheesy. they're evie's favorite thing at the bakery we go to, so it was nice to be able to make them at home.
after breakfast we headed out to the academy of sciences. it was packed, but that didn't matter to evie. there were fish and dinosaur bones to see. all pretty exciting. then we headed over to the deyoung museum and the cafe with the sculpture garden to grab some lunch. burgers. evie was pleased because there was meat - her favorite. she is not showing any signs of vegetarianism.
then back home for a glorious three hour nap. i really appreciate that she's a good napper. i think mike does too, because he was down for almost as long. it gave me time to make up a batch of chocolate-dipped coconut macaroons. the macaroons are a happy by-product of the ice cream making, which leaves me with a lot of egg whites to use up.
after the family woke up, we shared a cookie, which was messy and delicious, then headed over to a friend's place to celebrate their engagement and his birthday. evie enjoyed the people almost as much as she enjoyed the salami that was within her reach on the food table. then she sang to us on the ride home.
can a day be better than this?

by self
well this is the week of evie really starting to exert her independence more fully. she wants to do everything "by self", which is very, very cool, but it does make getting her pajamas on take a lot longer. i guess i should just be happy and look forward to the day when she can make mommy's coffee or cocktail all "by self".

music makes the world go round
it seems that evie has involved herself in a couple of different musical projects. from the videos you'd think she's only about the drums, but she blows a mean harmonica too.
what's that?
so this morning evie and i walked into the bathroom just after mike got out of the shower. and for the first time, guess what she noticed? yup, with a pointing finger, it was "what's that?".

mondays
well it's been a week since a post. lots going on here, or maybe not going on is a better way to look at it. the economy seems to be crashing down on us right now. things have dried up at work, and we're scrambling to figure out how to keep things afloat. i was really stressed at first, but then realized that years of miserliness will make this all ok. in my worst case scenario, i stay at home with evie for a year while we wait for the economy to improve. when i think about it that way, it doesn't seem so bad.
truthfully, though, it is still hard for me to imagine staying at home. i think i'm going to keep my fingers crossed that things pick up at work.
all that said, my girl and some gorgeous weather was the perfect antidote for the stress. we had a fun weekend starting with a fun day at the playground with her friends on friday. her friend marlon came over on friday night to play with us while his parents went out for an evening. we're finally going to get the whole babysitting swapping going, and friday was our first go. the kids had a great time playing together until bedtime. evie went down like a champ with mike - marlon was a bit more of a challenge for me. everything was going pretty well until i sang him a song that had the word "mama" in it. he heard that and his lips started to quiver and a tear rolled down his cheek as he said "mama und papa". i ended up holding him until he fell asleep. not too bad. and i look forward to our night out.
the rest of the weekend was more fun with evie. we hung out. we read. we sang. we went to a birthday party and did painting and decorated butterfly wings. it was all really nice. so going back to the gloom of work made this even more of a monday than usual. i came home from work starting to feel a little down again.
evie fixed that.
after dinner she overturned the drum we got her for christmas and started pretending that it was a pot and she was cooking. she kept stirring and adding salt. then i helped her add more stuff to the pot - including an awful lot of "sausage". as we stirred and smiled all of my worries just disappeared for a while. it must be magic soup that she made.

big digger!
evie and i met brighton and his mom, melanie, at krissy field to play on new years eve. it was cold and foggy, but the kids didn't care, there were dogs, and water and heavy equipment. life was grand.
brighton will be around for a few more weeks before he and his family move to new mexico. we're going to miss them.
we met up with the whole family again last saturday at tartine, this great bakery about six blocks from our house. the place is almost always packed, but we've found that if we arrive before 8:30 on saturday mornings, it's quite civilized. evie enjoys a gougere (french cheesy-poof) and scamming ham from mom and dad. we all gathered there for a nice breakfast, and it must have had some other magical effect on evie, because when we got home she wanted to take a nap at 10 am, then slept for 5 hours! definitely a record.

our day at the zoo
so mike's birthday at the zoo turned out to be absolutely gorgeous. we took the L train out there, which was the beginning of the fun for evie. she always loves the train. it looked like it was going to be a cold, foggy day, but when we got there is was blue skies and beautiful.
to increase our fun, our friends claudia and marlon joined us.
evie even got to ride a bear.
