California Vacation - Part I


Just back from a great trip to California. We started with a few days in Los Angeles meeting Cora's new cousin, Eli, and visiting Aunt Amy and Uncle Matt. Eli is absolutely adorable and Cora loved kissing and holding him.

While we were there, we did an Easter Egg hunt (thanks to Aunt Amy), headed to the beach in Malibu, explored Pasadena where were staying, enjoyed a quick visit with Papa Steve and Grandma Tanna and spent a morning at Griffith Park and the Observatory. It was great to get a little sun after a rainy winter and spring in Portland. Our last vacation as a family of three because baby #2 is due to arrive in less than six weeks....

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.

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.
