The One with The Hat

Chris is obsessed with The Hat. Not like a hat hat, a fast food joint called The Hat. The first time we went a couple weeks ago I had a migraine and was bitter about the whole experience, but today I was in tip-top shape and eager to get my eat on and document this legend!We've lived in LA for almost two years now and have driven by this seemingly run-down stand dozens of times. I can't remember what...

The One with the Royal Wedding

I've always been a tad (okay, a lot) bit fascinated by British royalty and kings and queens and princes and princesses and castles and mansions. I was convinced when I was a little girl that I was going to grow up and be a princess (I mean, what little girl doesn't think/dream/wish that?). I really honestly and truly thought a prince was going to find me and sweep me off my feet and take me to live...

The One with Would I Rather

Would I rather have a baby that doesn't like to be held or snuggled at all?or a baby who doesn't want to be put down ever?Sometime over the last week Fox decided that he doesn't want to be put down. Ever. Set him down and he, well, cries like a baby! He wants to be held 24/7/365. When he's awake. When he's asleep. When he's eating. When he's pooping, haha. But, to answer my question at the beginning,...

The One with Missing Jadis

I know I'm a broken record but we're back home now and life is sooooooo much different without my silly bird! He was EVERYWHERE. He was such a part of our lives! Chris buried him next to Frank Jr. as soon as we got home. I couldn't watch. My soon-to-be-sister-in-law Tanya (who just started a blog and I LOVE it! Check it out HERE) just sent me a video of Jadis and I can't stop laughing and crying over it. She and my brother Eric came out here last December for a few days so he could propose...

The One with Home Sweet Home Day 7

Today was uber relaxed. I'm still very depressed about Jadis. Tomorrow we'll be back in South Pas and will face life without my friend. It's going to be so weird. But we'll get to that when we have to get to that. Today we went to Mikey's Bagels for a little brunch and then chilled and worked at home all day. Eric just got back from college on Sunday and I caught him on camera being silly for a few...

The One when Jadis Died :(

I'm so sad. So so sad. Oh so oh so sad. :( :( :(I know just a few days ago I didn't have very many nice things to say about Jadis (okay, none at all), but I was just trying to be funny. I really did love my bird.I got a phone call a few hours ago from the boys who are taking care of our pets and he said that when he went to take care of them today he found Jadis drowned in the toilet. That's the second...

The One with Home Sweet Home Day 6

Happy Easter Sunday! The Easter bunny visited us last night and left a big basket of candy. Definitely gonna need to visit a dentist after this is consumed...The Easter bunny, or should I say "Easta Bunny", hid eggs for Chris and I to find. Fox joined in on the hunt. We found eggs in the most random places like atop this tubey thing.Our treasure. This is the epitome of Fox: put everything in mouth...

The One with Home Sweet Home Day 5

Early this morning we left for the Lake Wenatchee cabin. Fox lasted for about 20 minutes in this cute new outfit, then he had a blowout. He hasn't had one of those in awhile, but luckily I was ultra prepared and brought not one, but two spare outfits, and he ended up needing both!The weather here in the Pacific Northwest has been exceptionally beautiful since we arrived. I'd like to think we brought...
