Holiday Time

After a quiet Christmas at home, we headed to Utah for New Years to visit Papa and Grandma and do a little skiing.  Cora and Edie got to kick around with their cousins, which they loved.  In the hours before heading to the airport, we convinced Cora to try on the mini ski boots we had borrowed and take a few runs down the free beginner slope at Park City.  Once we got the skis on her, she was hooked.  When I told her we had to leave she said "I want to go three more times," and held up three figured just to reiterate how many more times.  She even skied a few feet by herself and was very proud of that.  We may just have a ski bunny on our hands and needless to say, that makes us VERY excited! 




In other news, our 2 1/2 year old is officially potty trained thanks to Dad so we are left with only one child in diapers.  Hallelujah!

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.
