Dinner for Two

James and I had a nice outing tonight, having dinner together at Beans & Barley. Nothing fancy, but we got in and out painlessly, without a diaper bag, without too many spills and no tears. Victory.

I Kidding

James has been pushing boundaries like any good two year old lately. One of his new favorites … and our least favorites is spitting when we tell him something he doesn’t like.

A minute ago while pretending to be angry, he made the spitting sound which triggered a strong reaction from Momma Bear. How did he react? A big smile and told her, “I kidding”. We’ve never heard that one before. I’m sure we’ll hear it again.

A Running Around the Kitchen Moment with James

James, surely one of the fastest two year olds on the planet was showing off his stuff tonight. I hope he never loses that laugh!

San Francisco Trip Trailer

Here’s a blast from the past – April 2014 to be specific. I’ve finally pulled together some video clips from our trip to San Francisco and Santa Cruz.

Strawberry Picking

We took advantage of some perfect weather last weekend to head north of Milwaukee and do some strawberry picking. It was the first time for both James and Michele. Hopefully James is more willing to pick the red strawberries next time – this time around he strongly preferred the green ones. A few green berries aside, we had a great time and have eaten some delicious berries.
