Summer living


We have been busy, just the way I like it for an active toddler. Yes I said Toddler! The fishy is finally walking. A week shy of 15 months, aka the cut-off for the normal range of walking (killing your educational psychologist momma!), Jonah took his first steps.  I joked that if he did it when  I was not around everyone needed to lie and pretend nothing happened. On Thursday he stood up and took one step forward. Hubs and I were both there to see it and both got big ol' surprised faces on.  He did it when our house was packed with my colleagues for an end of the year bash. Yes I was subconsciously brown nosing. More on that later.

The next day we set out for Utah and the great grandparents, and sure enough Jonah's grandpa who can get him to do all kinds of stuff, and this happened.  He is now toddling all over the place, running is next and I am already tired! Maybe it will help me get back in shape, moose, sigh.



We came home for two days and set off for SF. I had two weddings, one I was in, on the same weekend, four hours apart. Luckily since one bride was a jew and the other a goy (my bad, love ya V) they were on different days. But of course, the Army had to insert themselves and it was a drill weekend.  But thanks to my amazing friends and hubs driving and flying times two we got through it. SF was having unprecedented sunshine for June and we had lots of fun.  Two years since I left my City by the Bay and for the most part my important friendships are still going strong. If I could only make some friends down here. It has been tough, more on that later.  Okay off to toysrus to look for a sandbox.
