Four Years!

Four years and still going strong!



This year our anniversary sure was different. Little Jackson accompanied us on our anniversary dinner. What a change! Our table had baby food jars, toys, and plastic spoons galore. We are blessed to celebrate another year and have our little guy with us to join in the fun.



The following day we took in a Giants game.





Jackson was not pleased when Barry Bonds was up. He did not like all the noise the crowd made! Overall, we had a great day and special anniversary!

Happy Father's Day

We celebrated Marty’s first Father’s Day in two different cities. In the morning we went to brunch in Sacramento. We had a delicious brunch with Barbara, Bruce, Suzanne, Sarah, Jackson and Marty (of course).


In the afternoon Marty, Sarah and Jackson took a hike in Buena Vista Park. The park is 4 blocks from the apartment we are subletting for the summer.

Jackson is 6 Months Old!

Jackson is 6 months old. He is such a joy!! He has such a great temperament. He loves meeting new people, being outdoors and taking rides in his stroller. Jackson has been very busy acquiring lots of new skills. He can sit independently, scoot on the floor (it is not yet a crawl, but he can get to the toys he wants), and stand up (with support). He loves to eat so it is no surprise he can feed himself his own bottle, drink from a sippy cup, hold a spoon, and get the spoon to his mouth.

We said he could feed him self we never said he was neat!





Jackson loves being in California. He is enjoying visiting his family. His Nana and Grandma dote on him and his cousins’ fight over who gets to hold him. “The Little Prince” has it good!

Lauren's Shower

With 5 weeks until Lauren and Scott’s wedding, Lauren was a glowing bride-to-be! Everyone enjoyed the games. Check out Lauren in the apron. Guests had 1 minute to study Lauren and then remember everything they had seen. Lauren’s cousin made a beautiful ribbon bouquet. Nicu made the most delicious chocolate cake! Lauren’s shower was so much fun!







The shower was a success, despite the fact that two moms with 6 month olds were in charge!
