Hiking Feb 2008

Ok, so mom is probably biast:) 

Finally is warmed up enough to go out for a hike. It's been soo cold and we've had so much snow that we haven't really been able to go out. Talk about cabin fever! We have all been suffering. But with a little climb in the temps, we've had some snow melt and it actually feels warm out. 

Logan is a crawling machine. She has also taken to clapping which she finds quite entertaining. It's too cute. Her hair is long enough now for this cute updo! It cracks us up everytime her hair goes up. Earl almost doesn't like it though. He says it makes his little baby look like a little girl........ahhh, daddy doesn't want his baby to grow up. 

Not much else going on. Earl has got some biking and running events coming up, so he is going into training mode. Me, well I took it upon myself to learn how to make bread and cake. How'd I do? Great! My cake was AWESOME (buttermilk chocolate double layer with gnache filling and frosting), mmmmm, mmmmm. And my bread, TASTY!! What does this all equate too? I've decided that I do NOT need to make baking my new hobby. It doesn't work well with our waist lines:) So I will refocus my energy into my workouts.

Crawling, Climbing and Four Feet of Snow!

That's pretty much what we've been up to. Logan started crawling about a week and a half ago. Two days later she began climbing. She can pull herself up to her feet! Man oh man am I in trouble. She's not even 8 months old yet. At this rate she's gonna be walking by 10 months. Baby proofing is on the way. Her toy of choice, well, not her toys! She'd rather play with hammers, plyers, beers bottles, books, dvd players.............you know, all the good stuff. Logan and I are also just recovering from a bad virus. Congestion, coughing, achy.....just plain yucky. It's taken about ten days for this thing to turn the corner. Logan's cough did turn a bit croupy, but fortunately it cleared up. No ear infections or anything of that sort. Being sick with a sick baby is NOT fun. Especially when we got sick right when Earl headed out of town for four days. So while he was on a fun ski trip to Whistler, we were home blowing snot. Some things just aren't fair! Ok, so maybe not 4 feet of snow, but almost! Holy snowflakes have we had snow. A week ago Sunday we got 12 inches in one day. Earl was flying back from his trip and had to catch a bus from Seattle to Spokane instead. The snow was so bad that a plane slid of the landing strip on Spokane. That caused his flight to get cancelled. So he left Whistler around 8am on Sunday and didn't make it home until 11pm...........haha, that's what he gets for going without us :)

I have pics of all this fun, but Blogger isn't letting me post them. They don't support my mac very well. As soon as I get some pictures linked I'll load them.
