Chloe's Graduation

So our little Chloe finally graduated from her training class. She is a sweet girl and a real trooper. Unfortunately her graduation class was the same weekend we were moving into the new house. Her eyes look super heavy because she's so tired. But she did great and we are proud anyway.

Christmas at Mom and Dad's

We had so much fun at Mom and Dad's...as usual!

Padar taking it all in from the best seat in the house.


Beautiful shot of Nana after cooking, cleaning and putting up with all of us!


We must have been laughing at the kiddos - who we don't have pics of from this night. Poor babies. More to come with kiddo pics from Christmas day!

Phi Kappa Phi

My Dad is such an inspiration to us all. Yesterday he was inducted into Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society. Phi Kappa Phi was founded in 1897 at the University of Maine and is a very distinguished honor society.



Eligibility Requirements include:

Must be an outstanding student of sound character, enrolled at a college or university with a Phi Kappa Phi Chapter.
Juniors must have completed 72 credit hours and rank in the top 7.5% of their class.



Our Dad - Nasser Z. Eydani, after battling a stroke and teaching himself to sit up and walk again, went back to school and ranked in the top 7.5% of his class. Wow! Dad - - I hope you are as proud of yourself as we are! We love you!

Bosom Buddies!

"I don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright!"

Nate and Chloe have a special relationship, and according to Nate she worries about him! I'm pretty sure he worries about her too. :)

They are so cute together. As soon as Chloe sees him, her tail goes NUTS! But his reaction is the best! He just can't contain his excitement! I haven't figured out a way to capture the majic yet, but hopefully I will soon. Until then here are a few pics of our visit to check on sweet Sarah today!

CHLOE

I just love my Chloe. She's so sweet! Here are a few pics of here. She's already a tiny bit over 4 lbs. Big girl!

My Mom

A lot of people describe their moms as nagging, overbearing, nosy, even intrusive. When I search my brain for the best adjective to describe my Mom, the first thing that comes to mind is INSPIRATIONAL.

My mom has persevered in the face of devastation. She has weathered the storms with great courage and a positive outlook. Mom constantly encourages, and always lends a helping hand - usually before we even know we need one.

My Mom is a beautiful, strong woman. I only hope that I can one day be the kind of wife and mother she is. I don't know what our family would do without her. I love you Mom!

My Sarah

I love my Sarah so much! I remember when she was born - she didn't do much then, but she sure was a cutie! I also remember how she used to walk around with her little bald head and smile. She was such a happy baby!

It has been such a joy to watch her grow into a beautiful young woman. She is a princess, a nurturer, beautiful, patient, kind and sincere 12 year old (tomorrow she'll be 12 - let's not rush it)!

At 12, she has a lot of responsibility. Her brothers look up to her and I can't think of a kinder spirit for them to emulate.

Also, she is freaking hilarious! Recently my sister (her mom) and I have found that she is now more like 'one of the girls' than the 'little girl.' I am so happy for her because I know she's excited about her teen years coming up, but it makes me sad too.

To me she's still that bald little girl hobbling around her mom's townhouse giggling as she runs from room to room. I love her so much and her smile transforms any room. I want to wish my beautiful niece the happiest birthday ever.

I love you Sarah Nicole!
