Happy New Year 2013

Another year has come and gone. Baby Girl seems to be feeling a lot better this morning and getting back to her normal schedule, which is getting up a little before 7am. These past two weeks when she was sick we enjoyed sleeping in till 7:40 ish. But as I heard the cries this morning I knew it was baby girl getting us back to schedule. So up I went and found baby girl smiling at me in her crib. I love that morning smile. I got her her bottle which is no longer formula but 2% milk and we sat in the living room and listened to the news. After the bottle was her crackers which she of course, shared with Moses and then we turned the channel to watch the Pasadena Rose Parade. For once, she turned off all of that energy and sat in my lap and we watched the parade. She is just learning how to say and wave HI and GOODBYE so she thoroughly enjoyed waving back at all the people waving on the floats. It was a fun moment for me to share that with Baby Girl. Papa got up and found us girls sitting on the floor and he made his most delicious pancakes and we had a breakfast picnic on the floor. I love honey on my pancakes along with a little powdered sugar so I took this opportunity to introduce my daughter to honey. The doctor had given me the "go" on honey this past appointment and he said the honey might make her cough feel better. I am not sure about that but she sure seemed to enjoy the honeyed pancakes! We had fun playing around in the morning which culminated in a bath and more play time with Papa after e walked Moses. After cleaning the house and putting Baby Girl down for a nap I am taking the opportunity to update this blog. Its not very often I get time to myself yet I still feel the need to document life as I experience it.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...
