I bring Mr. Stevie to this park called Shane’s Inspiration twice a week for Physical Therapy. It is an awesome playground near the carousel at Griffith Park and has so many options for him. He’s not crazy about the park because every time we go, I’m making him work alongside his therapist. Stand up and…
Stevie gets vision therapy through the Junior Blind of America. Thus, we get invited to all their cool little events! Well, I shouldn’t say little. Quite a turn out and quite a lot to do. The day started out well enough. We ate, played in the sensory room, visited with some familiar faces, tried some…
Thanksgiving 2012 was so busy and so fun. The last few years we have been spoiled rotten and had two Thanksgiving dinners. One in San Diego with Paul’s relatives on the actual day, and then one at my mom’s house in So Utah over the weekend. The biggest downfall of having two Thanksgivings? All. That.…
There is something about living in Burbank. It’s a city of about 100,000. But somehow it still maintains sort of a small-town feel. There’s a car show every weekend at the Bob’s Big Boy. There is a whole street of antique shops. The people are friendly. The neighborhood streets are lined with trees. And the…
I am pretty excited. One: The election is over. I did not care who won. Two: My pal November and I had the talk. It’s going to start cooling off right away. You’re welcome, everybody. Three: This one’s my favorite… I was featured today on a very cute blog called Stylin’ Mommies! Go check it out! We…
To wrap up the very busy month of October, we’ve had some visitors in our area. And lucky us, they are all some of our favorite peeps! My Utah bestie and her husband came to see us while they were on their babymoon to SoCal. She is pregnant with her 4th baby, and is just…
Happy Halloween from us dorks! I was SO excited we were all smiling in that picture. I do have to admit, I haven’t been much into the Halloween spirit this year. It’s just been too busy. I don’t even have Stevie’s costume totally done. Is it even worth doing at this point? I know, I…
Day 1: Travel Gear. Ugh. This outfit is big and sloppy. But it was comfortable during the 6 hour car ride. My detective hat (which was deemed the “Carmen San Francisco”) ensured that I didn’t have to do a darn thing to my hair. And I only wore those boots when I got out of…
OK, I’m pretty sure this was our last trip to San Francisco for the year! It did not disappoint. As I mentioned before, Stevie’s behavior was… rough. And we were frustrated. But also so grateful that we had Paul’s sister with us as our weekend nanny. She watched Stevie so we could just go do some…
We just got back from a trip to San Francisco (more about that later). But I had to share a moment with you. This moment. I know he looks like a walking pro/sexy model. He is neither of those things. Yet. But to see him walking (stumbling) hand in hand with his Baba. Then…
