Frustration… or Fury?!?!

Ladies and gentlemen… there were 2 options for what I was to do tonight.  The first (my preferred and planned option) was to fly to Utah, see my parents, my brother and new sister in law, and start my vacation.  This was the option I had been talking to Sophie about for quite a few [...]

9 Month Pictures

Last night we had another fun session with Angela Chander.  We had such a great time at Heather Farms.  It is such a huge park and had so many cool places to take pictures, including a cute litte stream that Vi tried to stand in… oops.  Anyways, Angela has posted her sneak peek of our [...]

9 Months!

Aggg, she is getting so old!  Violet continues to be my silent, chill, calm baby.  She is such a “go-along” girl.  She went berry picking with me, she goes to the pool, she goes to A’s games, and well, everything about her is laid back.  She continues to be so serious (this last weekend my [...]

Crawler…

She just wishes she was walking instead!  Poor baby girl, she now has crawling down pat (it has been about a month of figuring it out and spinning on her bottom to see where she wants to go, along with slow, SLOW crawling) but all she wants to do is walk.  She tries to use [...]

Love is Dandy OR Andy and Daisy get married!

This last weekend my baby brother (AKA Andy the Manny) got married, to a fabulous girl.  It was a good (though long) weekend.  We luckily got to go down there Wednesday night, so I got to go to the temple with Daisy and my family for Daisy’s first time.  It was great, though while we [...]

P-I-E Part 2!

Sophie was playing with the window markers at Grammy’s house and decided to make P-I-E pie one more time…

Can you see that… a circle with the letters P-I-E in it?  Just like what we made the other day!  Sorry for the quality of the picture, it IS a picture of a window taken on my [...]

P-I-E… Pie!

Sophie likes a PBS show called WordWorld, in the show everything is made of letters.  So, to make items they collect the letters and then push them together… ta-da… the item appears!  All the animals are made in the shape of their letters…I don’t know if that makes sense, but click on the link to [...]

Worst County Fair EVER!

Last Friday MC Hammer was performing at the Contra Costa Fair… so we decided to head over, with Justin and Meggie.  Let me preface this with… most county fairs have free concerts, with admission to the concert included with admission to the fair.  Most fairs also have fun things to do that are included… that [...]

Memorial Day 2010

We decided to head south to San Jose for the holiday. It was nice, on Sunday we headed to The Tech, a tech museum (did I need to specify?). It was fun, and there were several cool things that Sophie liked, and Jeff and I would have had a lot of fun, just us adults. [...]
