Changes

In less than a month, our life is changing drastically.  Although the packing and unpacking, organizing, and cleaning while occupying a 18 month old is a daunting task, I am giddy thinking of our adventures to come.  I cannot wait to explore San Francisco: it's unique architecture, gazillion museums, convenient hiking, and the beach of course.   Although, McKay will most definitely miss the endless love and attention he receives from aunts and grandparents.  We are sad to leave, but at least we will be much closer than Miami.

In the meantime, we have been trying to get lots of family bonding time in before dental school starts.  Here is a quick synopsis of the past few months.  In the midst of working hard to save money before school starts, we have done some playing as well.

May

Cayucas, Ca after church

Hearst Castle

One of my best friend's weddings Fresno, ca

Santa cruz..  Bryan surprised me for my birthday.

Avila Beach, Ca

Millerton Lake.  McKay is not too sure about the lake yet.

April

Train ride to Hanford, delicious ice cream

Table Rock hike, Oregon. We visited Bryan's parents around Easter.  

Mountain Biking in Lithia Park, OR.

March

Manhattan beach, Ca.  This was after my half marathon in Agorra hills, Ca.  McKay discovered his love for sand.

Corona, Ca our college friend's wedding

February

Spanish Fork, Ut.  We took a Utah trip to ski and see family

We are trying to enjoy every second of our growing boy.  Our little guy is an 18 month old busy, opinionated, outdoor loving little dude.  He is still 95% for height and weight.  His favorite word is "uh oh" if that is even considered a word.  He loves giving kisses.  He has become clingy all of a sudden, which makes nursery a little difficult.  He also has become a picky eater as he's gotten older.  Yogurt, green beens,bananas, pb and J's, and wheat waffles are some of his staples these days.  I swear the pantry is his favorite place.  I always find him climbing on the little stool and trying to sneak graham crackers.  He loves my parent's rabbit and dog and begs to play with them often.  We can't keep him away from water.  I really should just keep him in a swim suit all day long.   "E-I-E-I" (old Mcdonald had a farm) is his favorite song these days.   He loves to cuddle, which I hope lasts.  Despite his love to make messes and destroy the house, we love him to pieces.  


San Francisco, here we come.  On to packing and moving, oh and backpacking this weekend.  Wish us luck, we are taking McKay with us!
