In Seattle

Loving the northwest! I came out to bring my friend Karen her bike and she and her husband Valor have showed me a marvelous time! We went to the university farmers market and to Zaks burgers and to the locks.












Little Ricky did a great job!

Catching up




Clair's first doctors appointment. The "it's not broken" appt.



Clair in the herb garden...three weeks and it's still alive! Woohoo!



Cute new pajamas!



Passover



Matza and parsley!



Clair's first Passover participation



Happy birthday mom!



Clair's new baby. She normally feeds it...and then chews on the bottle herself. It's really amazing to see how much she picks up just by watching. She mimics everything I do with her little baby doll.


Aha! It IS broken. Pretty pink cast.



My birthday



Easter sunrise!



The little man smiles



30 seconds later...the little man cries!



Love this kid!

And that's the last two weeks or so! Busy busy! I'm going for round two on the housekeeper this Friday so I can maybe keep up with life.

Coming up in May and June- 3 weddings and a graduation.

In the city

I love San Francisco and am so glad we had the opportunity to come up and see my brother...because I love him too!







Victoria took us to this really cool hiking spot that she has discovered by the apartment.






And then we met up with Hamilton and ate dinner at the stinking rose and dessert at ghiradelli square. We're such tourists, but I love it!








Than this morning Ricky left :( to go back to work

Happenings

This past week we had a fun small group dinner with our friends and a little birthday party for Nate. He was 'already four' on Sunday!

I have enjoyed so much getting to know our new small group friends. Sometimes after college, real friends can be hard to come by. It's one of the reasons I love the blogging world. But, over the last two years God has really blessed us with true friendships through our church...and I am so grateful!

Kendra and Matt made famous fish tacos--sooo good!







Nate and Sophia played with little plastic animals in te office along with whatever grownup would join them! Love these kids.



Nate's bday was Sunday. He announced before his party that he was 'already four'. I got to go shopping and indulge myself by perusing the Lego aisle. I have this insane love of legos and cannot wait until our kids are old enough to play with them. I asked Nate what he wanted and he told me that he couldn't tell me because you don't tell people gifts...very good Nate :) except that's if you're giving the gift. So then he said he wanted a plastic pirate ship. Well, Target does not have plastic pirate ships, or pirate anything for that matter. Remember three years ago when pirates of the carribean ruled the world and everybody sold pirate stuff? Well, not anymore, so three hours, two baby meltdowns and a desperate call to Ricky later, I came away with this:







Dude...Target with two kids is not for the faint of heart. Whoowee, won't do that again for awhile. But, it did make me excited to have four year olds. So much fun stuff!

We've also been working on a few house projects. We made drawers (and by we, I mean Ricky and Justin) for our bedroom so we can finally have a place for all our clothes. I also put together an herb garden. Hopefully I can post pics soon.

Right now we are on the plane to San Francisco to visit Hamilton and Victoria. Hamilton just got a new job and we are going up to celebrate with him and show off Little Ricky!
We have a few perks from Ricky's job and one is that we can put tons of boxes under the plane, so we loaded all of Hamilton's things up last night and brought them with us. something like 10 boxes. Those counter agents loved us...not really. Good thing we also brought cute kiddos!

Plus this:


Equals quality me time!






But just a little...
