I’ve got a feeling that 30 will be a good year for me. Here’s to thirty, flirty, and thriving.

It really is amazing to think that a year ago we were celebrating Theo’s birthday with sponge bob cup cakes and wondering what our little man would be like. He’s better than we could have ever hope for. He’s a real sport and so easy going. It’s tough not to to love the kid even with his constant drooling (no he’s not teething the kid just drools). Happy birthday Theo. I hope 2 is your best year yet.

So Susan received a package in the mail today (a few headbands from an Etsy crafter) and of course the kids get all excited, but for different reasons. Gem took one look of Susan trying on the headbands and needed to wear one. Theo on the other hand took the box and decided he should use it as a head accessory. The kid loves to put just about anything on his head as long as it’s not a hat.

Wow a whole month of no posts. Life surely has continued, but the summer’s been a bit of a dull one. Because Theo is new to our family it’s stopped us from spending days at Bear Lake, and pretty much keeps us home. I’ve been working too much, but I guess that’s what happens when one of your clients stiffs you (I might post more on that later).

I have to admit there’s still a lot of getting used to the second kid. I remember when we got Gem life was pretty upside-down trying to find normal again, and with Tuan (Theo) it hasn’t been much different.

We do have a good times though, and here’s some evidence (yes it’s yet another photo and video of my kid, but they’re cute).

And a video of Gem’s ABCs (bless her heart she really can sing them just she gets on camera and I think half the alphabet goes out the window).

Nothing too exciting for our July 4TH—BBQ with great friends and neighborhood pyrotechnics. Both Gem and Theo had the time of their lives (Gem was in heaven riding bikes and scooters down the sidewalk).
