More of February

March

 Here's us at the Children's Museum in San Diego with some old friends from New York.

Some fun roughhousing before bedtime.

We enjoyed a visit from Grandma Ann and Grandpa Rich.  We went to the L.A. zoo together.

Piper and I went to a birthday party at the Petersen Automotive Museum.  Such fun with all her preschool friends.

Piper loved the warm rice bag she got from my mom.  She called it her comforter.  I had to hide it once the weather got too hot - she loved it that much.

Such love for Daddy

Happy Valentine's Day!!  I heart-attacked Piper's door.

Look at all those happy grins.

We went whale watching with Grandma Vicki at Pointe Vicente.  We saw a few sprays and a pod of dolphins.

Silly kids

What to Update

There is so much to catch up on, I guess.  I'm feeling alright these days; I have my bad days still, like anyone.  So with that and with Piper in school now I will have more time to update our family blog.  It's almost been six months since I last posted - unbelievable.  A preview of what's to come:

• Easter (yes, I realize that was way back in April)
• Piper's preschool graduation
• Piper's 5th birthday
• Family reunion
• Simon's eye surgery 
• Island Park vacation
• Simon's 2nd birthday
• Piper's first day of kindergarten

I'll leave you with this parting shot but that is all for now.

Easter Advent

Easter is coming up again soon.  I am using our Family Home Evening plan from last here (check it out here) as a guide for an Easter advent calendar.  Instead of opening all of the eggs at once, we're going to have one egg with the accompanying scripture in a lunch sack and we'll open one each day until Easter.  I'm also going to include little treats for the kids that I got at the dollar section of Target.  I'm looking forward to it.  I'll post pictures once I have all the bags put together.

We're Alive

...and no, I'm NOT pregnant.  There has been a lull here in our blog lately but there's really no reason why.  Our day-to-day lives are fairly boring and ordinary but also busy at times.  We'll be back to blogging sooner rather than later.  First I have to upload lots of photos and then, think of something interesting to say.
