I do believe she is relaxed
>> Wednesday, July 11, 2012
Anna is proving to be our more relaxed, laid back kid so far. But this is a rather extreme picture of that. She was pretty happy here with Daddy holding her.

Fun with Nana and Papa
>> Monday, July 2, 2012
For the week after Anna was born we were blessed to have my parents here. But the person who probably had the most fun was Caroline. Papa took her out to breakfast twice (one time letting her have carrot cake--which lets be honest has about the same nutritional value as a donut, so it seemed fair to me). They went to the zoo. They splashed in the pool. They got ice cream. Somewhere in there they also made dinner every night and did all my ironing and laundry. I miss Nana and Papa. :) We were so grateful to have them here.
First adventure
>> Saturday, June 30, 2012
Well, Anna is taking her first adventure in stride. We had a major storm come whipping through the region last night. We had thunder, lightening and 70 mile per hour winds. It was Anna's first trip to the basement in the middle of the night. I think I saw a report that 400,000 people in the area are without power. So...newborn+no power+100 degree temps forecast=hotel room. We are all hanging out at the Residence Inn. Caroline is watching a Winnie the Pooh video. Anna is cool. Mommy can lay on a comfy bed. There is free wifi for Daddy. Everyone is happy. God was gracious to us.
A new Koller
>> Sunday, June 24, 2012
Anna Beatrice Koller joined our family on June 22, 2012 at 2:00 am on the dot. She was 6 lbs, 15 oz; 19 3/4 inches. She was kind to her mommy in labor, is healthy and as you can see below is particularly adorable. We are home now and adjusting to being a family of four. Caroline is enamored with her (though I think a little disappointed by the amount of sleeping). Caroline calls her "my Anna." Precious.
Kites!
>> Sunday, June 3, 2012
One of Jack's good friends from college was in town with his family today. So we met up with them on the mall and had a picnic. Afterwards we went and got two kites up in the air. They did pretty well flying even though it wasn't a super windy day. The family is from Alaska so when it is windy it is generally too cold for kites. So they didn't think their girls had ever had the chance to fly kites. Our last attempt (with a very cheap kite) had not gone super well. So this was really Caroline's first real kite flying experience. Caroline is the pink dot at the bottom of the picture (she is looking up).
Fun morning
>> Friday, June 1, 2012
There was an incident this morning at our building so no one could get in for a bit while that got cleared up. So Caroline and I decided it was the perfect time to go play at the Jefferson memorial. We saw the water, talked to the ducks and I tried to explain that Thomas Jefferson wasn't actually a giant it was just a big statue of him. (That conversation was hilarious). Here are some pictures of our little adventure. After an hour it was back to school and work, but it was a fun diversion.
New portrait

Seriously, could this kid get any cuter? I mean really she's adorable. (I recognize I am a little biased, but you have to give me that this is a cute picture).
