Discussion driving around town: Natalie: “I’m not going to have kids when I grow up.” Adrian: “Why not?” Natalie: “They’re annoying…”

Conversation on the way out the door this morning: Adrian (joking to Lisa): “…Natalie is pretty much fully reared now isn’t she?” Natalie: “You’re the weird one Barnes!”

Another video from the family home video archives. This was taken in February, 2006 (Natalie would have been two and a half at the time) and shows Natalie sliding down a snow bank. Pay particular attention to the mischievous glint in her eyes…foreshadowing of terrible threes and fours ;)

Dug this video up from family video archives (February, 2006). Lisa (girlfriend at the time, now wife) narrates Natalie observing me (Barnes) shoveling snow after a bad storm. Pay particular attention to Natalie’s fearless “one boot” fashion statement…always a trend setter.

Added Halloween Skate Album to Picasa Web Albums. Lisa and I took Natalie to Halloween Free Skate at CBS Stadium. It was Natalie’s first time on skates so there were few pictures and more than a few falls.
