Happy Birthday Owen: Part 1

Today is Owen's birthday! He's 2!! I cannot believe it. As I write this he's having a ball with a few balloons I blew up. He's also managed to undo some of the decorating I stayed past 2 a.m. to do! At least he's happy. He keeps saying "Happy Day" over and over again.

We got him a little toddler digital camera made by Little Tykes. It's an actual camera and he LOVES it. I knew he would. Here are some of the first photos he's taken:

I think that a toddler digital camera is the PERFECT present. I love your first pictures. I can't wait to see the ones you take of your sweet sister, Ana.
I so enjoy all the pictures of Owen and Ana. I talk to your Grammama every day about you both!
She is soooo full of love!!

Hello!

Welcome to our blog. This was started as a means to keep our friends and family in touch and up to date with our lives while we lived in lovely Vancouver, BC from 2006 - 2011, and in Boston, MA from 2011 - 2013. I took a break from blogging for a long while but since Boston, we did a 6 month stint in beautiful Denver, CO and then ultimately ended up in San Francisco, CA in Feburary of 2014 where we currently reside. Chris' job has taken us across the continent 3 times, sometimes far, sometimes near but mostly far.

We would much rather be up close and personal in person but since distance is between us and those we hold close and love, this is a pretty good way of closing that gap a bit. Not only that, but this has turned into a diary of some sorts featuring my son, Owen and daughter, Ana. It is a way of preserving those moments that have made us laugh, cry and grow, something I hope to present to them when they're older and curious about how they were as children.

With the kids older and Chris and I feeling nostalgic, Chris not-so-subtly hinted that he missed the posts that I used to put on here. So did I. I wasn't sure I could remember my log-in password in order to resume where I last left off but hey... Something must've worked because here I am! Again. Hi. How have you been? It's been way too long, right? Yea... I know but that's life. It passes you by fast and the jump from my last post from August 2012 to 2016 is evidence of that.

Love,
Marisa
