Tulip Farm




Soren went to a tulip farm with his grandma today. We enjoyed the great weather and all of the flowers.

Easter Egg Hunt in Laurelhurst Park



Soren and his friend, Winslow, hunted for eggs together at our neighborhood park.

Cannon Beach at the Oregon Coast











The day before Easter was Mike's 40th birthday. We spent the day at the Oregon Coast. It was cold and rainy, but lots of fun. Except for the weather, it reminded us of our times at Santa Cruz when we lived in California.

Two is better than one ?


We are working on getting Soren away from using his bink/pacifier. As you can see, it's going quite well.

Playing with Winslow


Winslow and his family (Rebecca and Andy) live across the street from us and both Soren and Winslow have a great time hanging out, walking around the neighborhood, and running around yelling!

A trip to the zoo with Alix & Olivia

 

 

 

 


One of Soren's favorite things to do is going to the zoo. He loves watching the sea lions swim up and down the glass tank, feeding the goats, watching the fish, riding the train, the list just goes on.

Fun at the duck pond with Eliana




On a rainy afternoon we bagged our corn and took off for Crystal Springs Rhododendron Gardens to feed/pet/watch/chase/run from the ducks and geese. Despite one very scary looking (and sounding) goose, it was a great afternoon!

Friday night dinner



Soren had a good time Friday night when our friends Sam and Carlota and their daughter Eliana came over for dinner. Soren and Eliana have become good buddies.

Lost in the packing!




What we thought was going to be a relaxing evening was turned upside down when the FedEx truck pulled up with a lamp we had ordered, and more importantly, lots of packing!

Lots of Photos

Photographer Amy Nieto (www.amynieto.com) took these photos of us on January 10th. Even with the cold, wet Portland weather and Soren's runny nose, the photos turned out fantastic.

Yup. We were all very tired. In bed by 9:00 PM. We tried.
