James @ 9 months, 17 days
James is getting his first two teeth- (bottom center)- and those little chompers are sharp!!!!
He's also mastering "the wave" along with clapping, saying "bye bye", walking and doing everything it takes not to get dressed - hence our mini photo shoot and one of my photo fav's from the bunch attached here...I love you James.

James' Milestones- big weekend!
Whoa! James really knocked it out of the park this weekend - special props to "the wave" which happened on Saturday. I couldn't believe it, all these long months we've known each other - and I feel like Saturday we made a breakthrough. James said "Hi" to us with a wave. Jason and I were like, "are you really doing that???!!" hahahahaha
Once again, you'll have to scroll to the bottom and read up. James' milestones read like a current resume. Reverse chronological order yo.

I met Jay Farrar
Talk about a rush. I saw that Jay Farrar was going to be at Sirius XM today, but never knew I'd feel the intense rush of meeting him in person! How very cool. Meeting Jay is like having your entire life flash before you - memories times twenty.
If you watch the video below - I witnessed these four artists singing at work today and it was literally one of the most amazing sounds I have ever heard. The harmonies alone killed! Plus, after they finished, I was about to head back to my studio - when as chance had it - I got to shake Jay Farrar's hand (twice) and tell him the story about "Mystifies Me" - our wedding song from the Son Volt album Trace. Of course it's a cover (it was?) - originally recorded by Ron Wood of the Stones...but just as this amazing post by Aquarium Drunkard points out, "Mystifies Me" is one amazing song.
"Son Volt’s version plays out like a well worn love letter; something written between two people who know each other very, very well. The mystification that Farrar sings about is the evidence of their relationship’s strength. It is a show of something that never gets old, that seeps and dodges definition."
God, that's us. I love you Jason.
And...in the comments section of the post, it doesn't look like Jason and I were alone in choosing this song to dance to at our wedding. Who knew?
Anyway, a pretty awesome Monday so far - the Birchmere in Alexandria is sold out tonight - check out this YouTube teaser. I believe the album New Multitudes is now available.

James's Milestones
God. Remember record stores? Yeah, this post isn't about that...but remember? They were cool. Anyway- been sorta off the map living life on Cameron Station Blvd. Spent the holidays working in overdrive (per usual) at work and I was sick with baby germs the whole time. But I'm back. Jason and James are back to normal too. Dec/January/Feb sickness took us all down one by one and at one point the whole house was on antibiotics! Nice.
(**you'll have to scroll to the bottom and read up- the timeline begins with the most recent milestone)
Enjoy!
