It's Officially Official

Finally, after three months of being in escrow, we are the proud owners of our first home in Napa Valley.  There is a lot of work to be done.  After a weekend of literal blood, sweat, and tears, about 67 trips to home depot, and much help from great friends and my sweet parents we are well on our way.  First things first, completely gutting and redoing this hideously ugly, dry-rot infested bathroom. 

Halloween Sneak Peek

There is a great pumpkin patch by our house on the way to Sonoma.  We had the fantastic idea of taking  pictures of Ira in his Charlie Brown costume.  The day soon turned from good to bad when Colin drew the Charlie Brown curl on Ira's forehead with very PERMANENT eyeliner which did not come off for the rest of the day. To add insult to injury, only one person recognized what Ira's costume was. Here are the two "good" pictures - for the majority of the time Ira was more interested in eating straw than looking at the camera.

6 months

Words cannot describe the love we have for this little baby.
