Topsy Turvy Tantrum
   As we close in on age 2 (106 days and counting down) Phoebe talks more but she also throws little tantrums more. I used to hate hearing screaming babies. And I still hate to hear Phoebe cry in pain. But these tantrums take on an almost comedic quality. Even Phoebe laughs when she watches them.

  Say Mommy Phoebe
  Phoebe's vocabulary is growing. She won't perform on command (well, sometimes she will), but we have captured her saying a few choice words. Most of the time we say something like, "Phoebe, can you say 'school bus' and she will just look at us and say 'yes.'"
Say Mommy, Please..

   The gift that brought me to tears:
  Christmas 2002
  Dee gave me a gift greater than any other gift that I can think of. She gave me this photograph. Keep in mind that these two people, Phoebe and Dee Anna, are the most important girls in my life. Then add to that the style, grace, composition and elegance of this photo and you have what for me is the most perfect gift. It was the most perfect Christmas. Meanwhile, Dee is suffering from a strained arm and bruised shoulder as she repeatedly pats herself on the back for delivering such an excellent present.

  Daddy's Revelations
    • My days are longer and my nights unsure. I lay awaiting the call of my master's wishes. There is no pay of gold or cash. I'll never see such material riches. But that's alright. My heart is content. I get paid in hugs and kisses. I am a father.

  Talking & Walking ...
     DAY 318 - Check out the bonus Vid Clip Links to see some short clips of Phoebe walking. She can walk with the assistance of her favorite push toy and, of course, she's talking all the time now. I can clearly make out "Da Da" and "Daddy" but the rest of it I leave up to some better interpretor than myself. For all I know, what sounds like babble to me is her recitation of some new profoundly relevant theory of quantum physics. Just so I don't sound like I'm not paying attention I often try to respond to her long soliloquies in a manner which indicates that I am with the program -- "Uh huh, uh huh, sure, but then how do you bond the hydrogen to the carbon monofilaments?"
