Today Patrick took a short nap, then came downstairs where ET was sleeping and then crashed again. They are so funny when they’re out cold.
We got 2 new carseats for Evan’s car because mama got a job! Actually I started today. The carseats were our project last week:
As you can see, they are very popular. And now that the Daddy Car is involved in daycare drop off, the Mommy Car is not the preferred mode of transportation anymore.
My new job is at a huge medical school/hospital/research center on the top of a hill overlooking Portland. I drive to a park and ride about two miles away and then take a bus that drops me off fairly close to my building. So far it’s pretty nice to let someone else do the driving.
We went to the zoo last weekend to meet up with some families in the Pacific NW Nub Club – a group for limb difference kids/families. One of the families lives somewhat close to us, the rest drove in from out of town.

And bears, oh my!
Today the little boys and I went to Cannon Beach and Seaside because it was supposed to be warm. It WAS warm in Portland, but I think the weatherman on the coast is a lying liar!
Anyway, here’s what we did:
Not pictured:
-spilling full cup of hot chocolate
-salt water taffy purchase
-ET being taken down by a 3 inch wave
The boys went to the dentist for the first time a week or so ago:
They both got an excellent report from the dentist – no cavities!
I just realized I have easter pics that i never took off my camera, so I will post those in a day or so.
This morning we went to Multnomah Falls. You’ve probably seen pictures (much better than mine!) on the internet or TV somewhere. It was really misty there and the sun was in my face and I have no idea how people get good photos like that. Anyhoo, it’s only about 30 miles away from our house, so it’s a nice quick trip to see it. You can hike up to the falls and I think up to the top (what IS on top, anyway?) but with 2 little kids and a stroller we just did the bare minimum and made mental note to get our hike on later.
Scowl face:
Somebody woke up extra early, and then crashed early on the couch.
