Dressed for Action at the Carnegie Museum

Roar! We had a third "boy" this weekend with our friend Evan in town. We checked out the T-Rex's at the Carnegie Museum (really cool) and of course the fossils and minerals as well. He was in town to go to a friend's wedding whose reception was at the museum later that evening.

Below are photos of both boys ready for action.

Grammie Takes in Pittsburgh

Grammie came to visit last week. We road the Monongahela Incline up for a great view of downtown Pittsburgh. Jonas now asks every morning if we can ride it again and lists who he would like to join us.

Morning Glory

Caleb is such a sweetheart in the morning. He's typically all smiles and likes to roll around and giggle. He seems to be a morning person like his mom. Let's see if that sticks...

In the Kitchen with Jonas

Jonas is emerging as a bit of picky eater. We are trying to prepare food and cook with him a bit to encourage him to try new things and peak his curiosity in foods beyond white carbohydrates and all things sweet. He helped make salmon and coconut rice this week. In the end the rice was a hit and the salmon will live to swim another day.

Nanny and Poppy Arrive in Pittsburgh

Drum roll please... Poppy has made it to Pittsburgh!

It took his grandchildren and 2/3's of his great grandchildren moving here, but finally he made it out West. We still can't believe this was his first time in the Steel City.

We had a wonderful visit including meeting up with one of Nanny's good friends from Hadassah who gave them a very thorough tour of the city and of course we cleared the shelves of the Thomas the Train section of our local Target. If only we could find a copy of the New York Post I think Poppy would be content to move in.

Devon and Dan are Married!

Chrissy, Katherine, Devon, Me and Andrea

Caleb and I had the most amazing long weekend in Seattle for Devon and Dan's wedding. I wish I had a photo of the beautiful couple to share but take my word for it, Dan was as handsome as Devon was beautiful. The setting was this super cool lodge about an hour outside Seattle towards the pass. Honestly it was something out of a magazine with a brisk river bending right off the wrap-around porch and cedar as far as you could see.

It was a rare opportunity for some close high school friends and I to catch up. Of course Caleb was a hit and since he was on his best behavior we may have some more babies sooner than later. My niece Madison was the star of the dance floor with moves she practiced before hand.
