Weekly Diary – January 19 2014

Here are photos from this week:

Nathaniel is a big fan of his new magnets and regularly finds creative uses for them.

I flew to Anaheim for one night just to be at CHA and worked at the Maya Road booth. Terrible photo, I know but it’s proof I was there.

While I was there, Jake took the kids to the Apple store.

where they played and played.

and made these funny photos.

which made me laugh and laugh.

nathaniel played with legos this week while he was home sick with a fever.

he’s always in a good mood, even with a fever.

then he did the puzzle in the cracker box.

and spent some time in his time travel box.

by the time we took photos he was all better.

and would not stop laughing.

making all of us crack up too.

and here we go. so grateful for my life. i hope your week was lovely, too.

Weekly Diary – January 12 2014

Here are photos from this week:

We cleaned out the board game closet this week, which meant a lot of playing.

the boys played Chess, stratego, risk, and scrabble.

i played scrabble with them too.

it’s my favorite. i loved watching them play.

then we took a walk to the park so david could get some photos of animals.

and Nathaniel could play.

he had to make some funny faces, of course.

as he loves being a clown.

when we sit to take our family shots, he can hardly contain himself.

he looks at me.

or away from us.

or starts giggling.

until we’re all laughing too.

and here we go. so grateful for my life. i hope your week was lovely, too.

Weekly Diary – January 5 2014

Here are photos from this week:

Nathaniel is a fan of his new magnets:

we took a walk to the Palo Alto lake by the airport.

david took a bunch of photos.

and I tried to take one of them but Nathaniel was being silly.

after some words, he was good.

and my three boys.

one of my goals this year is to be in the photos more. not just the weekly ones but ones where i am living my life with my family. i am still uncomfortable with it but I plan to work on it.

i actually love how these turned out.

even though nathaniel isn’t looking at the camera.

or closing his eyes.

or making me laugh.

really laugh.

now the tongue is out too.

this is one of the reasons i love him so. so much laughter.

we also walked down to palo alto a lot .

these photos are with my phone, i just don’t like the quality.

Nathaniel loved being on Dad’s shoulders.

On New Year’s Eve, we went to Muir Woods.

David wasn’t super accommodating about the photo.

but relented finally.

Nathaniel insisted he wanted a photo on the bear.

David took more photos.

so did I.

here’s me in the photo again.

then we went to Stinson beach.

and the boys played.

while I smelled the sea and listened to the water and the seagulls.

and then we took family photos, of course!

here’s to much laughter in 2014!

and here we go. so grateful for my life. i hope your week was lovely, too.
