Easter and First Steps

We visited Cash's Nanny Sara and her parents for an Easter egg hunt.
The hunt was a little overwhelming, so we played with eggs back at the house.
Peter, Sara's dad taught us how to dye eggs the Latvian way.

Today was also the day that Cash decided to start walking. Wobbly still, but
pretty confident that he could do it. He has been speed crawling so long, he
didn't see what the fuss was. Video re-enactment below.

Cash 9 thru 11 Months

Now that Cash is more mobile, Mama has less time to blog (or at least that's my excuse).

Cash has turned into a toddler right before our eyes, though his height could pass for a 3 year old. He can stand alone for a few seconds, crawls and climbs stairs like a champ, and loves to see what he can climb up on. I think the cats are an influence. He babbles when he feels like it and says words when you least expect them. A handful so far: Mama, Dada, Up, Pig, Cat (or Dat). 

He loves anything cars, trucks and wheels. He hears everything outside and wants to go to the window to see. He loves being outdoors. We are now learning how to share since he seems to want any toy any other kid has at play gym. He also really enjoys reading books of any kind, particularly ones about cats.

Here are some photos from the past few months.



There's some hair!

Phew. She forgave me.

8 Months Milestones

November 11, 2008
The past couple of weeks have been big changes for Cash. He is growing taller, slimming down (his size 18 months pants are now too big). He's got 5 teeth. 2 bottom and 3 top. Last week he sat up in the crib by himself. This week he STOOD UP in his crib after his morning nap. Today out at breakfast he clapped his hands all by himself with no urging from Mama. 

Our little baby is turning into a big boy right before our eyes.

Halloween 2008



Vashon Island with Lisa Wilson and Dave McCaul


We took a trip to Vashon Island to scout out a location for Brad, Dave and Lisa's next film The Checkout Girl. This is a beautiful Spanish villa that these 2 guys built by hand. Thanks Lisa for the pics!
