Weekend Away

I was very happy to get away for one last little weekend before Ruthless arrives -- we spent two wonderfully relaxing days at Andy's family cabin on Whidbey, soaking up the sun & water.

 

And happy birthday to my budgie Boo!

Preparing for baby...

Calvin has decided he likes this whole baby thing so far. 

There are lots of new cozy places to nap.

We still need to find some recorded baby sounds to play in the house & see how well that goes over...

The Supreme Court

Great night at the ball park.  A celebration of Felix.  This is what baseball in Seattle used to be, should be, and hopefully will be again.

Returning to this space...

For months I've been thinking about this neglected blog & anticipating returning to it. While Facebook is great for sharing little bits of info with lots of people, it's become an increasingly negative space for me & I miss having a place to share & connect with family & friends in a more personal & complete way. With our baby arriving in late September, I'm eager to document our adventures here (not to mention the added bonus of pinning from these posts onto Pinterest, a virtual sharing space that provides a great deal of joy for me). Hopefully we haven't completely lost everyone -- check back soon as I'm looking forward to posting a tour of our remodel, of Ruthless' nursery & current baby craft fun. I'm excited to be back in this space!
