We got to go up to Northern California to Nevada City to visit our good friends Jen and Kyle Lind. They have girls and Joel and Katelyn are only 2 weeks apart! I picked up April in San Jose and road tripped it with a nursing 4month old and a potty training toddler....good times! ha! The drive was long, but once we got there it was poolside hangouts and goo gooing over babies, with "Monkey La La's" (a Honduran adult beverage) every night! So fun and worth the long haul. I have some pretty amazing friends! Miss them all already! We also hit up the train museum in Sacramento on the way home...Wes was in heaven!

San Fran

Two weekends ago we were in Halfmoon Bay and San Fransisco. We have friends (Dave and Ellie Karp) that have moved from Texas to California and some other friends (the Omondi's) that are missionaries in Kenya and were here visiting.
It was great just hanging out, catching up and exploring the city. We haven't all hung out together in 3 years! We also got to hear how the Lord is using the Omondi family to teach pastors and bring people to Christ in Kenyna.
Of course Wes loved the trolley and a few trips to get ice cream in Ghirardelli square.....don't we all love this! Wesley and Angela became great buddies- guess we will have to make a trip to Africa for a visit. Maybe someday.
I am 34 weeks now...only 6 more to go until our due date! I am getting bigger by the second, but looking forward to meeting this little man! I am glad we are busy for the next couple of weeks, it will help the time pass quickly because I am definitely in the uncomfortable stage.
Off to Tahoe next week for some snow and family time. Can't wait!

Blow The Snause

Wes has been sick this week, poor kid. He has been caughing, sneezing, and dripping snot rockets the past few days. Well, since his nose became a faucet, we have been wiping and cleaning his nose constantly.
However, at night, we can't sit there and clean his nose or we would never get any sleep. So we showed him how to wipe his nose when it ran. Well, this is the result. We cracked up in the morning when half a box of tissue ended up all over the place. But I guess that's better than boogs all over, kinda!

Big Boy Bed


OK,
so those of you who know, Wes is a HUGE fan of anything that moves. Planes, trains, and automobiles so to speak. Well, we could not resist when we found this on craigslist. It was perfect (we hoped.)
So we went to pick it up and brought Wes with us. When we arrived at the house to pick up the bed, he hopped out of the truck, and there sitting in the driveway was this new car bed. Needless to say, Wes saw it and ran full speed towards his new "vroom vroom!" So from that moment on, it's been dubbed the "Vroom vroom, nigh night!"
Ok, so we were still nervous about the transition from house arrest (the crib) to big boy bed (freedom to roam.) We were ready for the challenge. So the first day we had the bed, we just let him play on it. The next day at nap time, we moved the bed into the room next to the crib and gave him the choice of crib or bed. He chose the bed of course and we explained that if he did not stay in bed that he would end up in the crib. Well, it worked! First nap and he stayed in the bed the entire time, even waited for us to come and get him when he woke.
So that's it, I know, sounds too easy, but that's how it went down. And now he sleeps in his new vroom vroom nigh night all night long. We just hope it stays that way, but we'll take it!
