Pickshures

Here's what I have for Noah's room thus far. I still need to draw Sera and Spike... and "the twins" from some sequel that Noah insists I draw (they're triceratopseseses...triceratops-i). Anyway... looking good!

Here's Cutey McFatenstein yesterday in his 9mos clothes. He's 4 months old!!! WTF, mate.

I fried up some zucchini before it went bad and Noah really liked it. I guess since they looked like fries he was willing to try them. Zucchini + deep fat fry + super fattening ranch = delicious.

Love Noah's feet in the first pic, hehe. Tristan looks blonde! And his eyes look green! Is his hair that light in person?
Allison said…
his hair is a lot lighter than it was... a bit darker than the pic, though (same with his skin and eyes)

Ok yummy to the fried stuff..i love it and will have to try more once i figure out the basic recipie for the batter. and totally random question, the monitor you have on the kitchen table in the zucchini picture. how does it work for you? do you really like it and was it worth it? I'm asking b/c we just got 2 new ones. 1 for Lilly upstairs and 1 for Paige downstairs. We were just wondering if they were worth it. Let me know. And again awesome job on the drawings!!!

Jen, the baby monitor works great. I love that it's battery or ac operated. I actually pick up other babies on it... which is weird, but fun in an odd way. I've picked up cell phone conversations too. It's very powerful and sensitive so it will hear Noah or Tristan (since their rooms are so close). I have no complaints.

Hurricane Sandy

This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE.  We happen to be surrounded by water.  The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between.  Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights.  We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right?  Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace.  I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that.  I at least want a gas stove and water heater!  So, anyways.  We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...

Germany

Noah and I are having a great time out in Germany with Josh. The house we're sharing is amazing and the people are also amazing. The only thing we don't have is our own kitchen, but like I said, the people who live here (Josh's friends) are amazing so it's not even an issue. I've been cooking for everyone to try to thank them in some way. We haven't been to many places yet. It's hard to go anywhere with a baby who has a naptime and a husband who has a job. However!! We managed to make it out to Heidelberg to see the castle. It was awesome. the walk up to the castle mmmm castle Heidelberg down below Christmas is huge here. They've even got Christmas markets out in the parking lot in front of WalMart. We've been to Luisenplatz a few times in downtown Darmstadt to visit all the Christmas shops they have set up. It's like a Christmas flea market. Thus far all I've blown money on is candy... mmmm German candy is so delicious. It's...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

As promised yesterday, I actually left the house and went on a hike with Mama C and Goober!  YAY! I was a bad Mommy and ill prepared to shield us from the hot Spanish sun so we all have a touch of sunburn.  Whoops.  It was fun though.  OK so here's where we began our journey.  You can see the bridge between the roundabout and the little house with a red roof (which is a restaurant).  All the cylindrical buildings were a plant nursery.  We walked over the bridge and past the nursery where we crossed the street and then started up the dirt path.  The other little building is literally a Gypsy Keep. Here's what it looked like from the road... and it was so ridiculously creepy, yet fascinating.  I don't know why there is always tons of junk in trees around gypsy places.  There was a gutted van in the backyard, a stroller jammed into a wall, shorts in the trees.  We both wanted to trespass, but the kids would have inevitably fal...
