Catch up

I know, I've been a-slacking...basically ever since this blog began. I'm hoping during this month of June to be more consistent since school's out of session.

I have many reasons/excuses as to why I don't blog:
1) I do so much work on my computer that more time online isn't that appealing.
2) What do I blog about? My friends' blogs are seriously amazing...talk about intimidating. Here are some of my faves:
Food blog by Jessie: http://jessieheaviland.blogspot.com/
Family blog by Becca (so funny!): http://ourcrazyboys.com/ - also, she's a pro-blogger, if you've got questions, she's your woman)
Family blog by Abby (so interesting!): http://ryanandabbygreen.blogspot.com/
These women also happen to be among the most amazingly talented, fun, and most wonderful people I know!
3) This blog wasn't my idea or creation (ahem, David)

BUT...it's a terrific way to document life and share it with friends and family.

Now, onto the catch up piece...

This spring, lots of time outdoors.

We arrived back from the San Diego the day before Kaia's 2nd birthday!

Here's the birthday girl on her big day heading down to the park:




And for her bday party, she had a tutu party (seeing as she's 2 now, and her birthday is on the 22nd: 2-2). Check out this post for more: http://ryanandabbygreen.blogspot.com/2010/04/tu-cute.html
