Portland Shamrock 5k

While Dave was busy studying for finals, Cora and I decided to get out in the rain for the annual Shamrock Run (or in our case, WALK). 30,000 people participated in this event wearing all sorts of crazy outfits. A very Portland event, indeed!
We survived but were completely soaked when it was all over. Cora was a rock star and actually slept most of the race, thankfully. She's a true Oregon girl because the rain didn't even phase her....but maybe that was because I was giving her special treats like gummy bears all morning!

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.

Cora Biedel Nelson

We welcomed Cora at 5:41pm on Saturday, July 18th after 12 hours of labor. Thanks to the help of our wonderful doula, Carissa, we were able to stay at home for the first 6 hours of labor. Our nurses and midwife at Kaiser Sunnyside were wonderful and helped Lindsay get through the labor and delivery drug-free. We came home today and are already lost in the world of poopy diapers, feeding and getting sleep when we can. Oh the thrill of sleep deprivation! We'll be in touch when we get our heads above water.
