Sasha Rayden Hammond and a Friend
I suspect I’ll be burning up the “Cute” tag on this blog in the days, weeks and months to come! 😉
Princess Kate is here…
…And the non-in utero name of our new baby girl is Sasha Rayden Jay Thompson Hammond (there’s no limit on middle names, is there?). She was born weighing 7lbs, 8 oz. and was 20 inches long. Born at 2:30pm on April 16, 2013, she is currently sleeping peacefully. Checklist… Mom tired but otherwise doing well […]
Saturday Snap – I’ll Miss When Shea’s Not Pregnant…
…I asked her to hold my wine and she agreed. 😉 (Can you see that look of longing in her eyes as she glances at my wine? Actually pretty cruel of us to tempt her this way during a birthday supper for my dad earlier this week!)
Friday Fun Link – Share Some Unique/Insightful Ways You’ve Heard A Child Verbalize Something That’s Become Part of Your Own Vocabulary
Pace’s portmanteau word “ness” is one of the most upvoted comments on this Reddit question although all of the answers are great (with that said, I’m glad it wasn’t my kid who liked to say “cockporn” instead of “popcorn”!)
Happy Birthday Shea!
Much love from your boys!

Â One of the highlights for me was seeing that every single exhibit area had picture books scattered around that tied into the theme of that exhibit – the train that you could climb on had transportation books, the exhibit that let you […]
Friday Fun Link – Sea Turtles at Anini Beach, Hawaii
Since I chose swimming with turtles on Anini Beach on the north shore of Kauai as the highlight of 2012 for me (see question #40), I thought I’d mark the one year anniversary of our departure on that trip with a video of that memorable moment…
Saturday Snap – New Year’s Day Waterslide Chase
We booked rooms at the local Travelodge for New Year’s Eve intending to do some watersliding with Shea’s parents, her aunt and Pace’s cousin. Â That’s what we did although when we went down to the pool and the pool attendant informed us that New Year’s Eve is their busiest day of the year in the […]
2012 “End-of-Year Questions” Meme: Hawaiian Paradise, Kindergarten Kid, and “It’s (Going To Be) A Girl”
1. What did you do this year that you’d never done before? Saw a photo of the brain of someone I know! Shea’s nephew has had a variety of health issues for the past five years including numerous seizures. This year, he was taken to Vancouver for some operations to address these, as yet, undiagnosed […]
