Dear Campbell, We had our first real family meal tonight. We’ve all eaten in the same room together, but never have we shared all the same food. We had macaroni and cheese with chicken and broccoli. I think you actually ate some of it, but most of it you just would stick in your mouth, [...]

Dear Campbell, We have been kicked out of the bedroom because Daddy had work done on his teeth today. He is a lot of pain and you are kind of a monster-which isn’t a super great combination. You are kind of mobile. You can’t get into crawling position-you either end up on your tummy or [...]

Dear Campbell, These are the things I love about you today: You will put the covers over your face, pull them off, and then laugh. You get irrationally excited about computer keyboards, maracas, and Inu. You like dancing to the “Black Keys.” You think you are the funniest person in the world and regularly belly [...]

Dear Campbell, Last mother’s day I made your daddy buy me a card and gift. I told him that I expected one and wanted to be celebrated. I could feel you move, had seen your picture, and you were already keeping me up all night so I figured I was a mom. I wasn’t wrong. [...]

If she is close to you, you chuckle in your wonderful “grown up” sounding way! Yesterday she was sitting within arms reach and you touched her [...]

Dear Campbell, I’m so sorry I haven’t been writing regularly, but-if I could speak frankly-you are currently not at your easiest phase in life. You are wiggly and difficult to please. You are constantly pulling things off tables and desks. If the computer is within reach, you are going for it. You have no idea [...]

Dear Campbell, I am so excited for the following things: Getting to spend a whole uninterrupted summer with you. A clean house to fully enjoy spending time with you. A trailer for our bike to take rides together. The outdoor pool opening at the Y. You have had so much to say lately! You have [...]

Dear Campbell, Yesterday you turned 9 months old. I celebrated you all day by treating you like I always do-lovingly while trying to encourage you to be a bit more independent. Separation anxiety is not my friend. Plus I let you have avocado with every meal. Today we had your 9 month appointment. My favorite [...]
