Someone's growing up

He's 16 months now and one minute he's wrestling with Niko and the next, he's giving him hugs. We are in a great phase right now and really enjoying both of them.

April Happenings

We've been really busy this month with spring cleaning and home repairs. Here was a big project we tackled last weekend.

We haven't been posting much lately. Just busy I guess. Here are some pics from March.
Penni visited us from San Diego. We went on more ferry rides. Niko had a playdate with his friend Martin. Niko also helped us plant our seeds for our vegetable gardens.

Intriguing Articles

I find myself talking about these articles again and again.

What makes someone a survivor:

This one is an amalgam of ideas from the TED conference. My favorites: the food you eat being chemotherapy three times a day and the one about $60k being the cap on monetary happiness.

Milestones

Jonah is putting words together now, and saying his brother's name. Yesterday he said "bye-bye Iko". Weighs 22+ lbs.
We're thinking since Niko is older now, that we should try keeping fish again. Jonah is obsessed with fish. Loved the Seattle Aquarium. He says pissshh, pisshhh, pissshhhh about a dozen times a day.
Going to go visit my dad & Nancy in Eureka at the end of the month. Was a mistake to tell Niko so soon. He immediately got his "Yuitcase" out of closet and started dragging it around the house. I told him he has 26 tomorrows to wait for it.
