If at first you don't succeed

So, when you are pregnant they make you prove that you are able to hold your sugar.  Now, I thought that because of all my years of candy intake, this would be the easiest test of my life.


There in the fridge sat the dreaded glucola cocktail that every pregnant woman swears is the worst thing they ever tasted.

In the glass with a bit of ice,
here goes nothing....

De-lish!  This was like the kool-aid of my childhood, but after you snuck more sugar into it.

This is not so bad!

All gone, and off to the test.  A blood draw later and guess what? I find out I fail by 3 points!!!!
Now back to the drawing board.  This time they double the sugar and triple the blood draws. It was sooooo gross. This is why no happy pics.  Finally after the three hour torture session, I passed with flying colors.  I guess "the girls" want me to experience everything possible.

Happy Anniversary, part two

In Feb., we made a trip to California; there we celebrated our true 5-year date with a huge Ghirardelli's ice cream sundae.  That was Andi's present, and it was good, but here is mine.
A few months late, but worth the wait!

We laughed so hard we almost peed our pants... no pregnant jokes please!

A night to remember!  
Thanks Buddy!!
Maybe for our tenth it can be Larry David for dinner!!

Fresh and new

The girls' room is coming along, and not in a traditional nursery way.  We decided to throw some more bold color in.  Look how nicely Andi matches the dresser.

Looking good


Now filled with all their new clothes


Ahh! Finished, until we decide where to get drawer pulls.

Let summer begin

Most of you know that summertime at our house means lots of friends, food, and wine!!!
Well, Seattle had its first run of nice days, so what better than an impromptu BBQ?

We lost the pepper grinder behind the stove, and since neither of our short arms could reach it we called in reinforcements.

Ahhh success!!

Its good to have tall friends not afraid to climb on major appliances. 

Elaine, sorry to post these shots, but we have so few of you!

After dinner dessert!  YUMMY!

I have to get every last crumb, it is sooo good!

Food, sugar, wine, games, and good friends!  
I love the "summer"!
