End of summer

By
I'll post shortly about our fun Labor Day plans but for now, here's some pics from our quick pit stop at Golden Gardens beach. We were in the area because Scott needed to do some work at the boat, and I had forgotten that there's a semi-decent sandy beach in Ballard! It's too bad the water was too seaweedy for the girls to have any interest in going in, and that we forgot all of our beach toys at home. Oh well, they still found stuff to do to stay occupied - like doing cartwheels in the sand and trying to make a mermaid tail out of sand!

Ready! Set! ...

Handstand! Don't be too impressed - she held this for about less than a second.

Nora playing in the sand while Evie does gymnastics!

    Fun! We spent Labor Day at the beach too! I think it's pretty hilarious that your girls are making sand mermaids while my boys are making sand Star Destroyers...

Happy new year!!

Goodness, it's already 2025! It's been a really long time since we posted!  We had a very lazy new year. We flew back from LA on the evening of the 31st so spent the last remaining hours of 2024 cozying up on the couch and then fell asleep before it even hit midnight! On New Years day, we slept in, cleaned up the house and then did a quick hike the next day. All in all, a good start to the year! Nora's new blanket hoodie. Cold and muddy trails. We're not in LA anymore! We hiked the Primrose trail that follows Coal Creek.

1 week checkup

We took Nora to her one week check up today and guess what? We have a porker on our hands! She weighed in at a whopping 6 lbs. 5.5 oz. That's 2.5 oz more than her birth weight! They want the baby to be back at birth weight within 2 weeks so she beat that milestone pretty handily. Hooray! So far, she's been better than Evie at eating (she doesn't take nearly as long, although she falls asleep VERY often) but she's not as good as Evie at pooping. Poor thing always seems to have tummy issues - she's very squirmy and fussy when she doesn't burp or poop. The doc doesn't think it's a big problem though since she still has lots of wet diapers, but we'll have to keep a better eye on it now. We'll have another doctor check up (with shots!) next week.

Poor little Nora! This little munchkin was running after her sister when we were out on a walk yesterday and tripped. She banged her face up pretty good, but thankfully it wasn't worse.  A big ole egg! she didn't like me trying to clean those scratches  breakfast thus morning! Lots of jam on her face to match her war wounds!
