  • Relay For Life

    I can’t really sum up how this relay was in just a few words. Being my first Relay for Life, I had no idea what to expect. I have previously walked the Susan K. Gomen Race for Cure, however that’s a 5k walk and easily finished in just a couple hours. This is totally different.…

  • First Haircut

    First Haircut

    Today Quince got his first haircut, and it was traumatic for him. At least that’s probably what he would have told you if he had more words to express it. We went to a barber shop which has been downtown for as long as I can remember, called Laurel Barber Shop. Although, Richard informed me…

  • Tourist day in Seattle.

    Given how often we visit Seattle, you would think that cheesy tourist photos would hold nothing fun. That isn’t farther from the truth! No matter how many times I visit Seattle, it’s still fun to take photos in front of well known icons. Especially when these photos are with two of your best friends. When…

  • 4th Festivities!

    What a weekend indeed! Quince and I started out our Saturday morning with a 5k walk along Ediz Hook for the Freya Hope Memorial Run. Laura and I finished the walk in just over 50 mins! Not too bad at all. Quince fell asleep shortly after we got started and remained sleeping until the very…

  • Staying on your toes

    Summer greetings! Many might be wondering where my posts have been recently. Truth be told, with Quince walking and trying his best to talk, it doesn’t leave a lot of sit down and update time. Generally when I reach for my laptop, so does he. While he knows he’s not suppose to touch it(most of…

  • We have a big kid now

    While driving home from Seattle yesterday morning, Quince was of course in his car seat. When we loaded into the car as the ferry was docking, I gave him his cup of water. It’s just your normal cup with a straw. As we were just reaching Port Gamble, I looked into the mirror to check…

  • 1 year old

    Quince is now officially a toddler, walking and teeth and almost talking. So far he says: hi, bye, mama and dada(sometimes). Also understands a bunch others which he can’t actually pronounce still, including shaking his head for yes or no. When he wants to he can give the best hug/snuggle. He’ll dance to just about…

  • Walking, and teeth

    You read correctly! Over this last weekend, Quince figured out how to walk more than just three or four very shaky steps. He now toddles across with the living room and kitchen with ease. Each days he’s progressed more. Most recently, one of his favorite things is to hold your hand and lead you somewhere.…

  • Flash update

    I believe the last actual post I have here is a saved draft on our weekend in Seabrook with Richard’s siblings. Why did it not get published you wonder; simple, I didn’t finish writing it. Will I finish it? Only time will tell. What happened is that I probably started writing in the middle of…
