Carson has officially learned how to take a self picture with the camera. We spent time with friends all weekend and even went to Dads old park with the boys. Carson went in clean but by the time we were done he needed to be hosed off. We are in Truckee for the next few days and then we will be back in Chico!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1867101229618893238-5563929696229651237?l=leatherj.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>leatherjhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05307278299919661287noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1867101229618893238.post-19096860555172946032008-05-28T20:37:00.000-07:002008-05-28T21:03:55.229-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qKbEXdsw6-Q/SD4q7_QU5PI/AAAAAAAAACU/dQY65U0eTbA/s1600-h/IMG_1987.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qKbEXdsw6-Q/SD4q7_QU5PI/AAAAAAAAACU/dQY65U0eTbA/s200/IMG_1987.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5205645429367432434" border="0" /></a><br />So a lot has been going on since the last post and for the most part Parker has just gotten big and fat! Carson says like 20 words that most can understand and at least 55 that only Michelle can translate for Dad. We are sooooo excited and blessed to have a new cousin on the way! Antie TT is pregnant! I got a new job that I can't wait to start, but it is going to be hard to say good bye to Diamond Valley Lake.

Michelle and the boys were refugees all over Southern California running from Dad who had the black plague of death (aka the 5 day flu). Jeff finally came out of his black hole around Sunday and the family made their way back to the house after we bought stock in Lysol.<br /><br />St. Patty's was not like we remembered it to be, I mean Jeff was still sober at 9am and it was a little strange??? Hope you all had a great weekend and we look forward to celebrating Easter with family. Carson will for sure spend a little time searching the yard for some eggs to kick around. I mean in his mind, if its round it's meant to be kicked!<br /><br />Cheers!
