Murrow’s always been a good sleeper (makes up for his eating a bit) and we’ve tried helping him by keeping a pretty set nightly ritual. It has always been that we put him to bed between 8 and 9, with Poppa lowering him into the crib and Kim giving him his blanky. The only thing… Continue reading Nightly Ritual Changes

This week has been a big one. Kim and I decided to hold off on having a second kid for a little while, and instead build back up our savings that having Murrow knocked out. In the past week, Kim found a good job with a local publishing company doing page design for trade magazines.… Continue reading What a Week

We imagine him turning in his “picture of a monkey” to his 3rd grade teacher, which is a artistic/realistic rendering of a small grey cat, saying “Meow”. When the kids laugh at him, he abandons the… Continue reading Jungle Boy

Now that summer has finally hit Seattle, Murrow has turned into a zombie (we expect this to be a yearly occurrence). Just judge by the pictures, when our little zombies has finished eating some brains (cherries and strawberries), then has passed into a glorious heat-induced zombie sleep (the only time when Kim dares to get… Continue reading Sleepy Zombie

For the fourth, we did what every family should do…barbeque and hang around the pool. Since Kim and I don’t really barbeque and we don’t have a pool, we went to Murrow’s best buddy’s place for hot dogs and (two?) kiddy pools. Murrow loved lounging in the water in his new swim trunks (that are… Continue reading 4th of July Pool Party
