Everyday Adventures: February 2013
http://susanmay15.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 1, 2013. No pictures of me! Gerry is a talking machine now. Of course now that I want to write all the funny little expressions and conversations we have it's hard to remember them. All of his hard "Cs" and "Ks" come out as "Ts" so the other day when we were at our friends house playing with their train table he kept saying, "Where's the train? And I kept holding one up and saying, "Here! Here's a video of Gerry talking to my Dad on the phone. It's pretty much priceless. Enjoy! How Child...

Everyday Adventures: August 2012
http://susanmay15.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 24, 2012. Tuesday, August 21, 2012. More catch up from the past few months. I was feeling kind of blah today and looking through pictures is a total pick-me-up. I see how much we've done and all the fun too and immediately feel better. I highly recommend it if you are ever feeling a bit down. Mr Pelo all snuggly in Marisol's nightgown. We brought a caterpillar inside and it actually went through its transformation to a moth! Miss Katie was the one who discovered that it had emerged! Hard t...

Everyday Adventures: Welcome Home Yoshi!
http://susanmay15.blogspot.com/2014/04/welcome-home-yoshi.html
Sunday, April 6, 2014. The day has finally arrived! Our newest baby has come home - meet Yoshi. She is a Portuguese water dog and she is 9 weeks old. Mike and Marisol drove to Scottsville (outside of Charlottesville, VA) this morning. It is about 3 hours. Needless to say, Marisol was quite excited when she woke up this morning. Yoshi did quite well on the ride, but she did throw up twice. She's not quite used to the car! Our first glimpse of her when we opened the door! Cuter in real life! June 2006 - A ...

Thursday, February 9, 2012. The Many Uses of Sticker paper. Marisol made Christmas decorations for her dance classmates and friends. We found pretty ballerina paintings online and printed them on sticker paper. We also added her initials and the year. Family tree project from a book Marisol received for Christmas (thanks Uncle Alan and Aunt Jill. er, I mean Colin and Tristan ;-). Animal food webs, inspired by Wild Kratts. Better late than never. It was a wonderful, love filled weekend! Enjoying a friend'...

Everyday Adventures: Our Western Adventure
http://susanmay15.blogspot.com/2014/03/a-few-pictures-from-out-vacation-out-to.html
Monday, March 17, 2014. A few pictures from out vacation out to Disneyland and Las Vegas in February. They are in no particular order because it drives me crazy trying to get them in order on blogger and I figure it's better to post them out of order than not at all. Click on them for bigger views and to see them all. Or scroll down and I will add some captions to some of them. Gerry's favorite part of Disneyland - our hotel room's bunk beds. Hotel robes to go to the pool - we felt so glamorous :-).

Everyday Adventures: January 2013
http://susanmay15.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 4, 2013. We took this picture today, 1/4/2013 2 days after Marisol marked 6 1/2 years. There are some days when I just wish I had a camera (or at least a audio recording device! Capturing the moments. Tonight was one of those times. Marisol and I have the best talks at night sometimes and I'm glad that I'm learning to be patient and not try to "rush" her to sleep (like anyone can be rushed to sleep! Then another tangent, "Why am I me, Why am I you? So she then told me her theory of girls ...

Everyday Adventures: December 2012
http://susanmay15.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 10, 2012. So the plan was in place to go see Santa Sunday evening so we could also carry on our tradition of eating at Cosi (a sandwich shop) afterwards. Quite honestly, I was wondering why we get so excited about this as we got ready to go. Everyone was tired and hungry and there was crying over socks or no socks and many other little things. Somehow we finally all managed to get into the car, kids each equipped with an iPhone to entertain and keep them awake on the short drive. Right n...

Everyday Adventures: May 2012
http://susanmay15.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 20, 2012. Babies, basketball, bathing suits,. Birds, breeze, being. Beautiful. Scent of wood-chips and lilacs fill my nose,. Sun and breezy shade take turns. Alternately warming and cooling my skin. Big white puffy clouds. Patches of blue poking through. Leaves move on trees, reminding me. Of the movie "Phenomenon". Birds singing their carefree tunes. All different, still together. Making an outdoors song. Man trimming his yard farther off. The buzzing adding its own rhythm. Learning All the ...
