Uncle Jim and Ethan
So Jim was here all last week and as I already mentioned, he got to spend a lot of time with Ethan and myself. He got to see what a day in the life of a stay-at-home mom and a four month old is like! I’m not sure if we inspired him to want to [...]
Palm Springs
So we’ve been pretty busy the last week or so. The weekend before last we took a drive out to Palm Springs to hang out with Dave, July, Caiden and Carrigan. They were staying out there for the weekend and we wanted to join in the fun! So we packed up Ethan and about a [...]
Jim’s in town!

Update: I think I found where he gets all that natural talent from…
Trip to L.A.
At the beginning of July, Dale, Ethan and I took a little jaunt to Los Angeles for some sightseeing. Believe it or not, after living in SoCal for over six years, I have never really been to L.A. I guess you could say I’ve been avoiding it!! But I heard there were some interesting sights [...]
Visit from Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Ted
In late June Ethan and I were lucky enough to have a nice visit with Great-Grandma and Great-Grandpa Ted! They stopped by for an afternoon and hung out with us. G-Grandma read Ethan a story and he returned the favor by letting out some very loud and startling noises on G-Grandma’s lap! Babies!!
