Some things that Peja has been up to:nothing like "mama's soes""papa round and round""peja potty", "no no pee pee""gasses"He is an expert hat dude. He specifically asked for this one.I can't believe how much he is talking now. Full sentences that often times only make sense to me, but are very cute nonetheless. Some of his favorites: "man di tuck" (man drives the...
Exactly a year before...Man he was a chunk! I totally forgot! Nina Richie, he never relaxes this much with someone else. ...

We went to Lake Powell about a month ago...we are so busy! Peja absolutely LOVED riding the sea doo. He especially liked going fast and asked for "more, more, more" if we ever stopped. Then when we got home he got one of the long pillows from our bed, straddled it and started "vroom, vroom"ing and then falling backward. I didn't know what...
We desperately need to take some good pictures, but here is one of us on our anniversary. 5 years! Life is SOOOO GOOD! We had a very nice date that night, and we are hoping to give ourselves a cruise in a few months when I feel more comfortable leaving Peja for a few nights. In other news...

Putting on shoes is the best. He has become quite an expert, and can even walk with shoes about 10 sizes too big. He knows that shoes have to be on before we can go outside. So he will put his own shoes on, then bring you your shoes and then pull your finger and say "up" to get you to stand up....

In January I signed up for a 10 mile trail run. I wanted a 1/2 marathon, but the closest, cheapest and longest thing that I could find was this 10 mile trail run in Napa on April 25. I figured that since it was trail it was a little harder then regular road races, so it would kind of make up for the...
My Nana passed away last night.Nana LOVED Peja. He was her first and only great grandchild she was in love with him. (I guess most people are. :))My Nana, mom and I at the famous Madonna Inn for a little birthday brunch last year. She always felt like such a strong, independent woman. It was very strange to see her in bed, so...
"People don't resist change, they resist being changed."I read this in my FTMF course the other day and it really struck me. The FTMF course is so awesome. I was looking for more family time and money freedom, but I am getting so much more!One example: my mom and dad have been studying a lot about addiction for the last 5 years or...
It seems like just yesterday I was in this townhome with "Y" mountain behind us just finishing up my last semester of college. But it has been two years! And now I have THAT (see below) little darling running around all over the place. WEIRD! I teach the young women at church and it is so weird to me that someday I will...
I think this blog would be really boring for anyone who doesn't have kids or know and love this particular kid.Drinking smoothies in the morning with dad. He loves his dad!A little date with his friend Emma (she is almost 3). They have a lot of fun together when Peja isn't trying to pull her hair. (Is that inherent in all boys?)Driving cars...
