Updates, mostly pics


So, I've been away from computer ever since i got my beautiful and sexy iphone last monday..... photos needed to be updated and people want to see pics of the fam. I've finally updated Flickr



Livie is beginning to move her arm a little, mostly upward movements, not quite bending at the elbow. Maybe by the time of her next appointment we'll see an improvement and hear positive feedback from the doctors. This video provides a visual of w
hat occurred to her nerves during birth (for those curious and needing visuals).... I'm trusting in God for healing, but His timing sure forces patience sometimes! Speaking of videos... I've been having fun uploading from my iphone on YouTube .... enjoy... I'll let you know when I update that as well.

She coos and smiles and eats all day. She brings a smile to my face ALL day long, well kinda, except when she's going through those growth spurts.... they're exhausting! :-)

The boys are doing great... we are working on expecting them to vocalize more. In the mean time, we work on getting their energy out any way we can. They hug and kiss as often as they have little temper tantrums, though they beginning to learn how
to play together.


I'm keeping myself busy with some personal projects and forget to pass along the updates and pics... feel free to yell at me often!


Love and hugs and kisses!


Ta! Ta!

new blog or not

I embrace change. From rearranging furniture to thinking about new careers. My blog home has proven to be no different as I have already changed formats and websites a few times. SO I raise the question... to blog elsewhere or not....

For now, it will be a not... but dont be surprised if I end up linking you to another location.

Not much in the mood for typing today.... lots of things going on... one of the girls we've had for a while moved to the honor house today. Girls we thought were enjoying their time are talking about trying to move out. We left for a little beach time before getting too depressed, but that didn't do much for my mood.

We spent some time at La Jolla. Last time we went there I was Mother's Day I believe? I was pretty big in my pregnancy and, while frolicking in the tide, I was whisked away by the tide. I remember throwing dominic in the air and yelling at Nick to grab the kids and don't worry about me. While people got up to their feet to help the pregnant lady in the water I was staying in the water to make sure my clothes were securely in place. I will never forget the look on the boys' faces as the water pulled me away. :-)

Today was beautiful, yesterday was beautiful... basically any day by the beach is beautiful. I really need to make more of point to go more often. I was driving around town last night and pulled up to a parking space facing the ocean to watch a spectacular sunset. I just sat back and indulged. San Diego is a wonderful, almost magical place.

I love meeting friendly new people. There's not a day that goes by it seems that I encounter some form of genuine kindness when I'm out in public. Just today I met a woman that makes hair bows for girls. She gave me some samples after watching me with Olivia at our booth in a restaurant. I recently found a hairstylist that I LOVE in a strip mall where we like to go to for breakfast- the people there are also so great to us. San Diego is becoming the home town I've always wanted.... knowing the person in that shop and at that store and so on.

I do miss though, some of the people I was just starting to connect with in LA. You are always on my mind! Keep checking in... or better yet subscribe via email and stay connected. I still visit and would still like to hang out. We're not that far away.
