Baby Sister is Getting Bigger

33.5 weeks down, 6.5 to go. 

Our Crazy Life


What Noah spent his birthday money on. He was so insistent that he had to buy them. He probably hasn't worn them once in the last 3 weeks. Good thing it was his own money!

Noah and Jasper hanging out after church.

Someone was not ready for the time change.

He's loving his hand me down Noah hat from his older buddy Noah.

A lesson in compromise. You can't wear just long john's to preschool no matter how cool you think it is. He was happy with the second outfit.

The Chocolate Walk

When Katherine had a birthday in January, we couldn't think of a better gift than a tour of some of San Francisco's finest chocolate shops thanks to a fantastic Groupon! There were eight stops along the way and samples at each stop. Great, great fun.

First we had lunch at a yummy burger place.

 The fries were delicious!

 Noah had entirely too much fun with a foldable hairbrush.

Our first stop was Fog City News. We sampled some tasty dark chocolate squares.


Next was good ol' See's Candy.

Then on to Spicely where they served us samples of both chocolate and tea. Their chocolates were all spice infused and very very interesting.

It's not a San Francisco Chocolate trip without a stop at Ghirardelli!


One of the more unique stops was a Japanese sweets shop called Minamoto Kitchoan where we had these delicious chocolate cakes.



After that we headed to Teuscher Chocolates for some traditional Swiss chocolate which was the stop where Noah declared that he was ready for some "healthy food". Olivia and the kids had a crunchy nutty crispy delicious thing and Victor had a champagne filled chocolate that was his favorite of the trip.

 They had very decorative gift boxes there.

Next was Chocolatier Blue where the chocolates were very artfully decorated. Olivia and the kids had a delicious blueberry chocolate and  Victor had a rum filled chocolate.


Noah gave his little sister some kisses while we waited for everyone.

Little sister is getting big, Olivia is getting big. 2 hours of walking around SF probably wasn't the best pregnant lady outing, but he chocolate was tasty!

The last stop was CocoaBella for a almond chocolate truffle. Delicious!!



Hiking with Friends

We went for a hike in Ross and discovered a wonderful new place to explore!

 Noah often wears his pants backwards.

 At least we get twice the wear out of the knees!

Preschool Pictures

Here's a sampling of photos from Noah's fun at preschool. It's hard to just select the ones without other kids' faces in them!
