Happy Earth Day!

Today is Earth Day and we are leaving our vehicles parked today and enjoying a little family time, working on our house plans, reading about installing a septic system, bringing electricity from the road to our work site etc.
While working on laundry I couldn't help but wonder "how cute would Isabel look in the basket?" Of course she was adorable.



Yesterday the three of us ventured out to do the Rock Creek Trail loop which is a 2 hour hike across the road from our house. The deep snow coupled with our late winter lethargy resulted in a 3 hour hike! Thankfully we brought a bottle for Isabel.Isabel made it known she was pumped for a hike off the road for a change.

This was our first opportunity to try out the fleece outerwear uncle Jeffy picked out for Bell.


I'm a sucker for emerging from the bath towel swaddled babies, need I say more?


I have been concerned about Isabel's apparent lack of interest in being read to. It turns out she just wants to do the reading herself!

Jaime comes over to visit Isabel on her lunch breaks whenever she can, and Isabel loves it.

Last week we spent most of the week in the Millenium Hotel in Anchorage. It was pretty nice. I got my fill of Law and Order and restaurant meals.

Isn't that how babies are born? They arrive at your doorstep in a basket? Right?? RIGHT??

I cannot believe how much Little Bell has changed, and how anxious we are to see her in May. Love ya.
