In the dog house...

At Auntie Missy and Uncle Kenny's.

Old Friends

So, awhile back my very dear friend Christina and her
boyfriend Sean (above with Wade) came up to Portland for
a quick visit. They were so cute with the kids it was ridiculous.
Wade played cars on Sean the entire time they were here.
Ruby snuggled into Christina's lap and stayed there
for a really long time.
We got to go out and have a dinner without the kids
and I laughed harder than I have in a really long time.

It is so fun to have friends visit but so hard to say goodbye.
Can you please just move here now?

Nothing makes Wade happier than cars.

spiders and birds

Ruby being a very busy spider at a great park
in Oakland.

Caged birds in Dolores Park

We moved out of the kitty stage and into birds, bugs
and creatures from the sea.
Oh, and an occasional rodent.
So many critters, so little time.

Boogers

Last night Wade woke me up at 2am to
give me a booger that he had removed from his nose.
As his mother, he has decided that
I am the person that all boogers go to.
No matter what time it is.

Lucky me.

in case you forgot what we look like......
i can't believe it is almost 10 years!
