Been a While

Sorry, it's been so long since I've updated. We've had some busy last two weeks. Between the last post (2/3) and the 12th, Ryan and I kept ourselves busy with a lot of playdates and doctors appointments. Kris was home for 3 days, but it really wasn't enough. My doctors appointment went well and everything seems to be going right so far. I've included a few pictures of Ryan doing his crazy things. First is Ryan at a play area dressing up (note the purse). The second was a great suprise when I was on the phone, he walked in wearing my boots and talking on his phone. The third is him cuddling in my bed trying to avoid taking a bath and the fourth is a potty time of his right before his bath. I'm also trying to include a video of him spinning himself crazy in the bathroom.



Last Wednesday, Ryan and I drove to MI. We got to visit Robin at work and see her office. Ryan then stayed with my parents, mostly my mom, until Monday night when I got back home. During that time, I flew to Sacramento to visit Kris. It was a long day of travelling, but I got upgraded to first class for my first time ever which was great. I must say my belly was a bit of a problem getting things under the seat in front of me. Friday, I got to relax most of the day and then we took a Jodie, a friend from college, out to dinner. It was so nice to see her again, it had been over 6 months.

Saturday, we drove to San Francisco. We drove Lombard Street, which has got to be the curviest in the world and took the Golden Gate Bridge, stopping several times for pictures. We drove through the Presidio - which truthfully, we have no idea what is is (or was), but we know my parents cannot stay awake through the movie. We walked around Fisherman's Wharf and attempted to ride a trolley car (but the line was way too long and they were way to slow about loading people). So we opted to get some ice cream in Gharidelli Square and head down the coast to Los Gatos to visit Jim & Sarah Anderson (Jim went to MIT with Kris). We had a frightfilled drive to their house due to its location at the top of a mountain on a curvy one lane road. Here are pictures from that day!

On Sunday, we drove to Lake Tahoe. It was a long drive, but we loved the area once we got there. We stopped few times to take pictures before settling in the Heavenly area in South Tahoe. Kris played craps at the casino, we attempted to take a gondola ride but it was sold out, and did some shopping. Later, we drove around the east side of the lake before starting the drive home. It was a long day, but very beautiful. Here's some pictures.


On Monday, I started the long trip home. My parents picked me up at arrivals and then dropped my mom off at the departures. On Tuesday, Ryan and I drove home, making good time and glad to be back in our own beds.

Now, here is the good part - hope you made it here. My mom had told me that twice she went into Ryan's room after naptime to find him completely naked! He has NEVER done that to me, so I thought maybe it was the different diapers she had. But low and behold, today Ryan did it to me - and it wasn't just a pee diaper! So I ended up cleaning the carpet, the floor, the tub, his clothes, etc. What a great afternoon! We will be so glad to see Kris tomorrow!
