A Deer Just Like Aunt Stephanie

Liz came home with a stuffed deer from Camp Orkila and named it 'deer' just like her Aunt Stephanie's stuffed deer :)

Camp Orkila

Brett and Liz went to Camp Orkila on Orcas Island last weekend. It's a camp run through the YMCA and is geared toward a weekend for Dad's and kids. Scott was one month shy of being old enough to go. He'll be able to go next year although Liz and Scott will be in different age groups so I'll have a nice Mommy weekend with each kid as well :)

Scott's Bad Temper

Scott put a hole in his wall by repeatedly slamming his door against it. We're going to put a better stopper on his door. If he does it again, he'll lose his door altogether. I wish he was old enough that we could make him fix his wall himself or that he wouldn't think fixing his wall was fun. It stopped me from ever putting a hole in a wall again.


Flowers from HomeStreet

Mark, the CEO of HomeStreet, sent these to me to thank me for work I've been doing before I start. Very nice :)

Not With Your Penis Hand Dude

We still shower with the kids. It was Brett's turn and he was taking a shower himself as well as washing the kids. He was about to wash Liz's hair when all of a sudden she says, 'Not with your penis hand dude!' She objected to Brett washing her hair with the hand he used to wash his private parts. He had to wash her hair with only one hand. I couldn't stop laughing....

A Beautiful Brunch Made by Lizzie


Kiwi Crates - Thanks Gracie and Ally

Gracie and Ally sent the kids these wonderful kiwi crates. The first couple of pictures are the kids with the wands they made. Thanks Gracie and Ally (and Aunt Stephanie :))





I Need to Go Clothes Shopping and Need a New Haircut

I had my Seattle Bank badge picture taken on my second day at the company back in 2007. Last week I realized that I was wearing the same dress and had the same haircut. Too bad I don't weigh the same.

Liz's Story About Her Playdate with Dean


Blast from the Past - Lamaze Class

Here we are pregnant with Lizzie. I made two wonderful friends from this class. Christy (in the grey and white stripes) and Tracy (in the middle in black).

Kids New Swim Class

The kids started the Orca Swim class today and did a great job. I think Liz will be swimming really well by the end of summer. Scott is a daredevil and needs to be watched closely!
