Snowmaggedon!

By
It's been a week since Snowmaggedon and we're sad there's only little piles of snow left on the ground. It started snowing during the Superbowl and didn't let up until Monday afternoon so we all had a snow day this week. We probably got around 12-18 inches of snow, which is pretty rare here. Even Seattle proper got a few inches!

It was bad timing but I had to travel for work on Monday, and the uber pickup wouldn't (couldn't!) come down into the neighborhood. Scott was nice enough to carry my luggage up the street to meet the driver and then carry my snowboots back home since I wasn't about to lug those things in my luggage!



Pancake breakfast to get ready for snow play!

so quiet and white.

Subaru covered in snow. This was after Scott already cleared
snow off it the night before.

We saw some brave souls try to drive in this and get stuck.

Snow up to Scott's ankles. 
As usual, Nora hated the snow.



Our front light is buried!

two of our gigantic pine trees fell over in the backyard.
Can you see it leaning from the weight of the snow?

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.

black and blue

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!
