California!
Saturday, April 28, 2007
I guess you could call our 6 month stay in Cali an "outing"... We lived in Santa Rosa CA in our first together apartment- a town house on "Santa Ana drive" We were just learning how to be a family, and our most exciting times while there that I can remember were grocery shopping together, and when Logan arrived we had to take two carts a few times we lost each other in the store...
This picture is of the Golden Gate Bridge, of course in San Francisco, which was about an hour away. We had some visitors from NS while we were there- Harvey and Cathy Blois and Doe Singer came, and we had some great times together- those guys def know how to vacation! My sister also came to visit, and we ended up hiking the redwoods with her, (yes only four days after Logan was born! it was fine, I was on pain meds.) drove around San Francisco, went to a beach, saw the Napa Valley, and drove to Monterey down the coast.
My mom was a lifesaver when she arrived, she knows just what to do with newborns! I was so stressed out when she was leaving... I'd never had two kids before, and had barely moved out of my parents house with my first!! but everything worked out fine, I was so thankful to have had the time with mom there. There really is nothing like spending a few days with my mom- she is the most generous and thoughtful person ever, and always takes great care of the kids- makes sure I am rested and well fed with the cooking that I still miss... nothing like spending time with mom.

Love the picture! I remember when Cath and Doe were heading out and were trying to convince me to come...I was sooo afraid of leaving the house when Jacob was so young. I was soooooo tired when he was just a few months old.
Thank goodness for Mom's. You're right there she has a big heart and she is an amazing cook!
