Dad (Brett)
All around rockstar geek. Brett enjoys his job as a Clinical Data Manager (helping research medical breakthroughs at Celgene); in his time off he enjoys reading books, watching movies, and learning new tricks on his camera and in Photoshop. He absolutely adores his wife and 2 daughters.

Mom (Erin)
Complete supermom. Erin loves her job as a Youth Field Researcher (aka 'mother'); in her plentiful spare time (ha!) she enjoys sleeping, re-reading Twilight or Harry Potter, and cuddling with Brett.

Aeriana ('Wacko', 'Princess')
Hybrid Angel/Devil. Aeriana loves her mommy and daddy, each of whom she loves to test at times and pretend innocence at others. A veritable sponge, Aeriana wants to do anything she sees an adult doing; she loves babies and especially adores her little sister, taking great care of her every need.

Zoe Jean ('Stinker', 'Cutie')
Growing fast, Zoe wants to be just like her big sister. Very goal oriented, she'll find a way to get that toy she's been looking at. She loves her pacifier and can't help but snuggle up to her blanket. Zoe is as relaxed as they come, she just loves chillin' out and watching TV.

My Kids Have No Chance

At 2 1/2, I've already screwed Aeriana up. When she was littler (more little??? less old???) I would tell her I had a secret for her, bring her in close to hear a whisper, and the growl loudly and suddenly to scare her. She laughs when she's startled so it was great fun for all of us.

At this point though, Erin is regretting my actions (though I still think the result is funny). Now the exchange goes more like this:

Me: Hey, Aeriana you wanna hear a secret?
(Aeriana comes close)
Me (whispering): I love you.
Aeriana: That's not a secret!!!
(pause)
Me or Aeriana: ROAR!!!
Aeriana (laughing): That's a secret!!!

I really wonder how long it will take her to realize that a 'secret' is not a loud, startling growl. Oh well.


Now I've started on Zoe... this is way too much fun to not propagate.
