family roadtrip, first bath and more
















Since it's been over 100 degrees in Portland the last few days, we decided to leave our hot house behind and head to the Oregon Coast. It was the best decision we've ever made as it was MUCH cooler out there and a perfect little getaway. Cora slept in the car, on the beach, in the sling and pretty much everywhere we went.
When we got home, she took her first bath with mom and loved it.

Thanks for keeping this blog up to date! When is this baby going to wake up? All that mellowness is making me retoactively jealous. Dave, how's Peeka doing?

It's great to already see some blog updates. Keep them coming! Hope she keeps up the good sleeping to give you guys a little rest, too! Can't wait to meet her in person (and see mom and dad, of course)! Kori
I am so happy for you guys! Cora has "fit right in" how awesome. Sleep deprevation becomes the "norm" soon you won't even remember what it was like to get a solid/straight 8 hours! :) Love you, miss you, and wish I were there.

We recently had family photos taken in the Columbia Gorge by a wonderful couple who travel around the world with their two kids taking pictures. I just love how they turned out!

Cora and the boys

Dave's friends, Scotty, Ryan and Danny, have been taking good care of us this week. We're thinking about asking them to move in long-term! Ryan is currently making us a fancy breakfast and Danny is still trying to find us the perfect Subaru Forrester to purchase.

Salar de Uyuni Tour

Southeast Bolivia is home to the world´s largest salt flats. This amounts to huge expanses of flat land surrounded by snow capped mountains. Big lakes, super dry deserts, and llamas, alpacas and vicuñas everywhere. As you can see from the photos, there are a few interesting things going on here. First, and most notable, is the huge population of flamingos. There are three different species that summer in Bolivia and winter in Chile and Argentina. But what makes it even more interesting is that the salt flats are roughly 14-15,000 feet above sea level. We are way up here. That makes the hills and mountain surrounding the plains almost 20,000 feet. Mt. Everest is less than 30,000 feet. This is home to flamingos? Yep, lots of em.
