Me and my Dog

Jonah and Lucy have become fast friends. They've found that they have a lot in common. Mostly they just eat, sleep and poop.

Armstrong Redwood Nat'l Park

So come to find out, we have a redwood reserve about 45 min from our house and we got the chance to go check is out last weekend. At first Jack didn't even want to get out of the car because once you get in the park it's very dark. All the trees are about 1000+ ft. tall and it doesn't allow for the sun to shine through. But after a while he warmed up to the idea and it ended up being a fun day. A lot of the trees were hollow at the base so you could walk/crawl through them, Jack really enjoyed that. But I think Jonah had the most fun chillin' on Daddy's back in the hikers pack.

Dillon Beach

We went to Dillon Beach last weekend to shoot some family pic's, and we were lucky it was a beautiful day and not too cold. Unfortunately all the pictures I took of Nate with the boys came out blurry. Nate's definitely the photographer in the family!

L.A. for the Weekend

We spent last weekend with Matt (my brother) and Sarah (my b.f.f.) and their three kids. On this day we took the kids to Downtown Disney and had fun just walking around to all the shops and eating at Rainforest Cafe. It was so fun to get away and especially to hang out with them! I still can't believe that between Sarah and I we now have 5 kids, crazy!

Whad up Cuz...

Awe, look at these two. When I figured out that Noah and Jonah had the same pajama's I knew there had to be a photo shoot! Noah is 10 months old and Jonah is 5 months old here, and apparently they're both going to be drummers when they grow up.

Ok, I know Halloween is SO over but...

Yes my friends, I am finally updating!! I would apologize for taking so dang long, but if you know me at all you know that procrastination is my middle name. So here we go... Jack was an, oh so proud, Optimus Prime (from Transformers, for all you without boys). He felt very tough in the costume and didn't look as skinny either, so it was good by me. =) Jonah was our little lion, but didn't necessarily like his costume as much because all those little mane whispies kept getting in his mouth. We had a fun halloween.

First Day of Kindergarten

Ok, so I know this is kinda late coming... but most of you should by now I'm not very prompt when it comes to this blogging thing. Anyway, YES, Jack started kindergarten a couple weeks ago and can I tell you how much he LOVES going to school. He's bummed when Saturday comes around, and when I drop him off in the mornings, as soon as the classroom opens, he bolts for the door and doesn't even look back to say bye to his dear old mommy! But it makes me so happy, and I wouldn't want it any other way. He loves his teachers too, Ms. Sack and Ms. Gruber.

All smiles and giggles

I guess 3 months is the magic number! Jonah is so fun to talk to now because he responds to everything you say. Just last week he started doing this really deep giggle. At first I wasn't sure if he was giggling or starting to cry. Jack can really get him going. It's pretty funny to watch.

John and Madeline

Nate's brother John and his girlfriend Madeline came to visit over Labor Day weekend all the way from San Antonio, TX. It was fun to see and hang out with them for a while, and on this day we took them downtown in Petaluma where there's always fun shops and good food.

Jonah's Blessing

We were able to bless Jonah while in Utah a few weeks ago. It was so nice because we were able to have a lot of my family there and almost all of Nate's family there. It was not only so good to see so many friends and family that we just don't get to see as often anymore, but it was also so great to have them be a part of this memorable day for our family.

Jonah 7 weeks old

These are some of the oh-so-cute pictures that Nicole took of Jonah while staying at our house a couple weekends ago. Our goal was to get a good announcement photo, and that she did! Thank you for all your hard work Nicole!!

Golden Gate Park

A few weeks ago, my friend Nicole came to Cali to hang with us for the weekend and we ended up going to Golden Gate Park. Of course she brought her camera too, thankfully, because she has become this awesome photographer, and these are just some of the snaps she took of Jack.
