M.I.A.
Sorry for disappearing. Life has been more than hectic but I’m sure you’re tired of hearing that. A HUGE project at work that I’ve been working on since February 2009 is about to launch, it’s review time at work, we’re packing, we’re getting our house ready to sell, oh and we’re moving 1000 miles away in about 2 weeks. Add to that, everyday life things AND all the people who want to see us before we go and we’re overwhelmed to say the least.
My favorite picture of the last few weeks?
She learned to say “Cheese” while getting her picture taken and so this night she kept saying “Cheese” and I’d take a picture and then she’d say “More! More! More!” I have about 10 pictures from that night. One is the background on my phone and it makes me smile EVERY time I see it.
Lucy’s favorite past time? (other than Duplos):
Playing with buckles. She LOVES to buckle herself in. She hasn’t figured out unbuckling (yet!) thankfully.
We went camping this past weekend (our last California camping trip with our good friends and constant camping companions Josh and Parish *sadface*) and went on a beautiful hike at Pinnacles National Monument. We saw some gorgeous flowers:
And scenery:
Caves!
Lu was quite the trooper in the caves:
And my little Les Mis girl keeping cool:
Daddy and Lu:
And now we’re back, dealing with the bomb that is our house and trying to get organized and packed before the realtor takes pictures on Monday. This morning Lu wanted “More bows! More bows! More bows!” and Daddy was all to happy to oblige. He even said that the flower would look “pretty” behind her left ear.
(she wouldn’t smile because she wanted “MORE BOWS!”)
Even though it’s hectic, I do love my life!!!
Hopefully you’ll see me again soon. I can’t make any promises until after the end of the month-how sad and anxiety inducing is that?!?!?!

I can only imagine how crazy life is….but what a wonderful move you are making! I can’t wait to see/hear all about your new life in Boise. And….MY OH MY little Lu looks like she’s grown up overnight! That first picture of her grinning ear to ear shows how big she is getting. SO adorable!
Sad that you’re leaving so soon! Hopefully you can post more regularly when you’re settled in Boise.
omg Lu!! She is growing like a weed these days!! Wish I wasn’t so sick and could see you before you leave, miss you!!!
I’m so excited for you! The finish line is in sight and you’ll be in Boise before you know it. I’m so happy to get to hook up with you guys in live and living color and get to know Shawn and Lucy better. Lucy looks just like you in the first pic, which makes both of you adorable. We were driving down Hays today and I was looking down all of the streets to see your house. Plus, I told Luke that you and I should be taking credit for the new work situation, being that without us our husbands would never have met 🙂 See you very very soon!
So cute! Hope all the hectic stuff isn’t taking a toll on your dietary/lifestyle changes, etc. Love the pics.
Hahaha. Love Lu!
gorgeous pix. love the cali parks!
What fun! Was talking with Shaun tonight at O’Neils about the trip. Beautiful place, though it sure can get hot. I did some running there in December on my way down to LA for Christmas. Beautiful place. Also took the girls in April. Wonderful wildflowers. They had a ton of fun exploring in the creek.
I love the Lu is always so happy when she is eating! I bet there are some really great camping places in Idaho for you guys to discover. Here’s to everything going smoothly until your settled in to your new home! 🙂
Great pictures! Love the one with all the bows in her hair!
