oscar night

my apologies to brie for the lateness of this post! these fantastic pictures are from a very exclusive party that veronica and i have weaseled our way on the list for 2 years in a row. veronica had the best time ever and reads the book that brie brought her every night before bed. sometimes several times. thanks for that!

living on sesame street

drea says it is like veronica is growing up on sesame street so today's blog with have you come along......





this is our neighbor sergio who gives v art lessons everyday. they are working on her first canvas.




my mom is so amazing at making sure everything veronica eats is organic and delicious. she also has her help prepare her meals.




veronica has the most keen sense of even the slightest puddle. she is a master stomper now.




sometimes it is really hard to get her to stay still. so punk rock!




a day at the zoo with her uma. what could be better? she insisted on having lunch on that bench and directed many visitors to the new gorilla compund.







i will call this series girl in car.



i will leave you with the joy of veronica splashing. it is my favorite time of day for sure.

Mika's Photo Series

My best friends' Mika and Miranda visited me recently, and luckily enough, one of them happens to be a fantabulous photographer. As we hung out with V and her mama, auntie and friend Myra, Mika shot tons of pictures.



Aren't these great? I love the lighting and the roundness of the image.



They're like if Veronica was being profiled in Rolling Stone and they wanted some candid shots of her with her family.



Rock & roll!



Rock & roll, but still so sweet.



I love how sunny and happy their house is... and I also love that Myra's little weeble-wobble tummy is in the middle of this shot. Soon for her!



(This, of course, is for Chester's profile in Rolling Stone...)



So Veronica can be quite easily, and happily, amused by the simplest things.



(This is a preview of how amused she's going to be shortly... just had to include it because HOW GORGEOUS IS THIS CHILD? I mean, really?!)



There it is! Absolute joy and perfect amusement!



I love these kicking little pants, too.



Look how long her hair is! I do love those moments when you can still see the baby in her face, though.



Happy, sunny days in the all new Willoughby manner... thanks again to Mika for taking these shots, and for Amanda and Amber opening their doors and sharing their loveyness.

thank god slamdance is over!

so, we are in the throws of molar eruption which as you can guess is no bueno and not a lot of sleep has been had! i will post some sweet shots and hope it will be enough to tide you over. not everyone can be as witty and hilarious as the queen you know.





this is shay. he is ethan's new little bro and veronica really loves to kiss him. so incredibly cute!






veronica has really embraced the baby signing. she has about 50 signs and it makes it so much easier to know what she wants. this is the sign for more which is usually what she wants.




as you can see, everything becomes a teething tool.







i am sure she will hate me forever for this one.

this one's for gidget!

I know that drea's mom gets so upset when there are no new pics for awhile and since drea is in the middle of snowy hell, i am going to attempt a blog.
the first set of pics are from v's first E.R. trip. it was so awful but we still managed to document it. there were so many horrible procedures and were were there for 8 hours. she was having convulsions with fever but it turned out to be ok.




on to nicer things. the next set are something that we all hope is a passing phase. i just hope she chooses anything but pushing racks for a living!





maybe she will be a stuntwoman if my pop has anything to do with it








i will try to be regular with my posts while queen drea is away. i seem to have erased all the xmas pix but i have a crack team trying to recover the photos.
