Happy new year!

By
2020 has really started off at a slow crawl. I got sick the last day we were in LA, and then must have passed it on to Scott and Evie because they both came down with something and were out of commission on the 30th and 31st. Our NYE was spent lounging on the couch watching a Star Wars documentary. 

Luckily, both felt good enough for a low key New Years day outing to the Science Museum in Seattle. We really wanted to go sledding but the weather was too warm (read: lots of rain!) for it to snow so we opted to stay dry and revisit a museum we haven't been to in a while. Turned out to be a great option for us because we ended up spending almost the entire day there and visited exhibits we hadn't seen before and watched an IMAX about extinct animals. 

The 2010s was a wonderful decade that brought in tons of changes into our lives - 2 kids, 2 new houses, 4 new jobs (more on that in another post!), 2 new cars, lots of trips and activities but mainly a surprising love for the Hawaiian islands. Here's to hoping that the 2020s will be as chill and low key as the first day!

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!
