May has been an exciting month. Nora arrived at 1:21 pm on May 11th after being induced. Ben got to spend some time with some friends while we were in the hospital for Nora's delivery (THANK YOU JENNIFER AND IGOR!!!). He was very excited to meet Miss Nora - he and Craig picked us up […]
Read moreNora finally arrived at 1:21 pm on Monday, May 11th!!! She weighed 7 lbs, 12 oz and was 19.5" long. Nora didn't surprise us like Ben - instead, we surprised her with an induction! Everything went great and without complications (and VERY fast!). Our first impression of her was that she looks nearly exactly like […]
Read moreBen turned 3 this month!!! When I asked what Ben wanted for his birthday he said cake and balloons. I hope he's always this easy to please :). We held a Zoom birthday party with a few family and friends. Ben had a great time but was very shy for the actual Zoom meeting - […]

Read moreJanuary was a hectic month! We took a trip to Disneyland. Ben loved seeing all the characters this time (he was scared last time) and rode a lot of rides the first few days, then started to feel sick on the last day, so wasn't up for much. Unfortunately, despite having the flu shot in […]
Read moreDecember is always a lot of fun - especially with a 2.5 year old who's just figuring out the whole present thing :). Nonna was still in town for the start of the month, so we got in a few more activities with her before she went back home. Ben loves to cook - we're […]
Read moreThis month we started potty training (so much fun!). Ben's done really well as long as we're close to a bathroom (we did the 3 day method over a long weekend). We also introduced Ben to bowling this month. He really enjoys it, but he wants to skip the ramp throw the ball like the […]
Read moreFinally started to cool down a bit in October! This month we got to spend sometime outside at the zoo (finally!) and our neighborhood Octoberfest, where Ben got to push all the buttons in a police car. We also went to the ASU West Fall Festival with our friends Amanda, Sam and their kiddo, Elliot. […]
