Spring has Sprung


Well, maybe for some of my more southernly friends & family, but for us in N. CA, we got SNOW!!! I was on my way home from my scrapbooking class down-the-mountain, around 12:30 today in a nice drizzle. I even got all the way to my exit with no sign of the dreaded white stuff... no sooner than we started lunch, here it came... and not just a few flakes drifting slowly down, no.... a snow shower, which even now at 11pm, it's still snowing. This photo is from the first March snow... we're on #3 or 4 now.

Well, I just finished looking at my new nephew's Christening photos from this past Sunday... SOOOO cute!!! Can't wait to see him in May!

Jake: Is climbing things & then he does a dance on top of them. He likes standing on/in anything... lids, cake pans, drawers (including the one under the stove), etc. He's funny. He loves board books, & I'm reading him Harry Potter (don't shudder in horror). It has nice big words that you don't hear everyday & i get to remember what words & real sentences look & sound like. Besides, i've had the book for about a year & haven't cracked a page.

He LOVES shredded wheat cereal & Cheerios. He likes eggs, kidney beans, carrott slices, kiwi, oranges, apples, pears, bananas, broccoli, mac & cheese, oatmeal, peanut butter on wheat tortillas or pita bread, likes yogurt... Though i've found I can't feed him the same thing 2 days in a row, or he doesn't want it (not including the cereal). He wants whatever we're eating. So, he's had some Chinese on occassion, greek twice, likes pizza, & he gets 1/4 bagel at church on Sunday.

So, any of you with mini videos from your digital cameras, Snapfish is now hosting video for less than $3 a month. I have loaded Jake's videos there for family to see, and my new camera captures sound, too, so they can hear him babbling. I have a really cute one of him in the church nursery playing with this car... he can get in & out!! He loves this thing! He also likes the grocery store carts that look like cars. :-)
