I tried to start a blog when Nick was first born but between working on my phD in Finance and caring for Nick, I did not do a great job of keep the blog updated. I have imported the blog posts from Nick's blog and am recommitted to keeping track of our family's stories. I will also be adding memories from Nick's first year to record all of the fun and exciting things this past year has entailed for team Upton.

The Daisy Affair
The other day I took the kids to Target for Nick to pick out his big boy chair for the dinner table so that we could transition Brennan into Nick's high chair. I had made a big fuss about the whole event how it was an adventure and we would get a big boy chair and a big boy toy, etc. After we picked out a chair that he was very excited about we went down the toy aisle to pick out his toy! First he sees a push Daisy that would match his Mickey, Nemo, and Pluto friends. He decides he has to have her. As I am swirling the cart around to make a quick exit off the toy aisle, Nick sees a Dinosaur driving a car ( a wheelie) and decides he has to have this toy, I insist he can only have one and as you can imagine, chaos ensues for over 5 minutes of picking on and then screaming as we put the other one back etc. Finally he says, OK mommy I want the saurus (dinosaur car) as I am putting Daisy back on the shelf Nick yells "WAIT MOMMY!" I turn around and he says "Bennan's Daisy! Bennan wants Daisy" needless to say Brennan got Daisy, despite the fact that Nick holds he most of the time, he calls he Bennan's Daisy. This was just the first time of many I will be had by my two children working as a team :)
