Bayan Aliyyih: the blog

Dear Friends and Family (incl. Mlle. E. Hai),

We are extreme novitiates at photography. We are extremer novitiates at blogging. And we're even extremer notiviates at rearing infant girls, this last proving a great impediment to improving in the former disciplines. Thus our plans to share pictures of our baby girl arrive slowly and with meager prospects to the virtual press. We'll try to put pictures, stories, apologia, explication and more up over the next few days and give you an insight into all things Bayan. That last is an Anglicization of a Persian/Arabic literary joke, since the Bayan is the book of "all things." So feel free to retreat one sentence and become amused. From this point on the blog inclines itself to present the last things first.

Love,

Brett & Gladys

Suspicious car wash...

A 3 year-old with a new haircut!

The risk:benefit ratio of having long hair finally tipped towards the side of the risks (outweighing the delight/benefit) this morning. I threatened, Bayan met my challenge, then the deed was done. Check it out. I was too extreme, and probably should have taken her to a hairdresser, but, hey, she likes it, so what's to complain about!

Bayan as Martha Stewart for Thanksgiving

After the first big snow storm of the year on Wednesday, Bayan and I woke up on Thanksgiving ready to make a snowman. The ears were her idea. Then she turned into a mad baker the rest of the weekend and we made muffins, pies and (unsuccessfully) pizza dough.
