Music Man

Recently Ethan is really in to music. He especially loves to sing, preferably accompanied by his xylophone or a toy guitar. Favorites include Twinkle twinkle little star, The wheels on the bus, ABCs, Old MacDonald, and my personal favorite, This old man. Enjoy this video....he could be the next American Idol!

Out of the fog?

Well, we have just completed out 4th move in three years. Ugh. Not fun. It took this long to get the computer up and running again.

We decided to leave the city when our apartment lease was up--our landlord wanted a 1 year renewal, but since we are actively house-hunting, we decided we couldn't sign up for that. so we found a month-to-month rental up in Marin, where we are looking to buy a house. This way we can get used to the community and see if it (and the newe commute) is for us.

Our place is really small (about half the size of the last one!), so that has been an adjustment. We have a nice balcony with a view, and access to a BBQ though, so more outside "space" than we had in the city.
And the apartment complex has a pool, much to Ethan's delight.

Unfortunately, since we've moved the weather has been cold! It seems like the fog just followed us up here....we hope not.

Heres a few pics of the new place.


We'll see how the adjustment goes.

Family reunion on the Russian River

Over the weekend we had a great family get together at Jason's Aunt Marcy's house on the Russian River. The weather was great and we got to enjoy some sunshine (as opposed to the perpetual fog we have been dealing with in San Francisco). Best yet, Jason's brother Brandon flew in for the weekend--we hadnt seen him for about 9 months!

Ethan loved looking at the water and sitting in the boats. He didnt get to go out in any (no toddler sized life jackets), but we let him sit in them at the dock where the water was only about 12 inches deep.


Enjoy these great pics of Jason's family!
