March 2013

March was a pretty fun and happy month. During the first half we learned that we'll be moving to Pocatello, ID for Paul's summer job. Definitely not something we had expected or desired, but we think it'll be a good thing. As a bonus, we both have friends living there already so we won't be lonely.

We had a very pleasant St. Patrick's Day weekend. On Saturday we hiked Table Rock, and we'll probably never do it again without a better carrier for C.G.

Beginning our journey to the top.

Almost to the top.

We made it!

C.G. was a trooper, as was Mr. Mitchell who had to carry him on his front. We almost had a fall, but Mr. Mitchell was too quick for gravity!

On St. Patrick's Day we wore our green and had our alcohol-free St. Paddy's day fun.

Corned beef and cabbage for dinner.

Irish dirt cake for dessert.

Caleb had bananas instead.


We wrapped up our day with a viewing of Waking Ned Devine. I crack up every time.

That week Grammy and Grandpa Earls came for a visit. They couldn't stay for long, but we had fun just talking and hanging out. We went to Powell's Sweet Shoppe and Mr. Mitchell and I were treated to a couple of meals out. It was nice to have them here.

Rolling for Grammy.

Snuggles.

We wish they could have stayed longer.

That weekend we went with Grandma and Grandpa Holdaway to The Discovery Center to see Bodies Revealed and play with all of the cool toys.

Welding washers together.

And then, of course, C.G. was just C.G.

Practicing his mermaid dancing - he just needs to get his legs together.

He insists on being on his tummy on the changing pad.

Grabbing his toes.

Hanging out with Dad.

Finally a smiley picture!

Playing footsie.

Lately he works himself into the corner of his
crib and then falls asleep there.

My baby!
