Cookies!

By
Evie's bud Hadley invited us to take a cooking class with them on Sunday, and boy did we have fun! It was an hour long class for kids 4-6 years of age and we were able to make 2 types of cookies. The ingredients were already pre-measured so it was easy for the kids to dump everything together to mix into a dough, and then roll out shapes. The Rugelach (made with apricot jam and dried cherries) was my favorite but the Chocolate Crinkle cookie was Evie's. I really liked that neither was overly sweet. I'm sad that I already lost the recipe booklet because I would totally make them again!

We have another class in Feb to make pies that we signed up for and we are already looking forward to it. I'm even thinking of taking an adult one for fun!

These girls chatted and giggled the whole time.

yummy rugelachs!

Happy new year!!

By
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

By
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.

Trick or Treat!

By
Halloween this year was the quietest one we've had in 13 years! This was the first one we had without the girls! Both of them went to friends houses and left Scott and I to man the door. It was very quiet at home because the doorbell rang only 4x the entire night, but at least both girls said they had a lot of fun despite it being rainy and dreary out. Thankfully, they have finally learned to not trust Seattle weather in October and chose warm(ish) costumes!
