Sand in the city

We went to a fundraiser in Portland on Saturday called Sand in the City. It was a little event but we had a lot of fun and it was for a good cause. Here are some pictures from it. Marcus and Andy playing in the sand. Despite the way it looks, Andy hated it.
Andy getting his face painted. He kept trying to eat the paintbrush.

The end result. Marcus got made fun of several times but he's my hero for doing it.

The bug and me. It was really so much fun.

remember when

Here is a fun little game... Leave a comment on my blog of a memory that you and I have had together. It doesn't matter if you've known me for a short time or a long time, anything you remember! Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. On your mark...get set...blog your memories!!

But I still love him.

So far today Andy:

Got up at 6:20 FOR THE DAY (yikes)

Grumped ALL morning

Barfed on me

Pooped on me

Only slept for an hour of his two hour nap...

...but I still love him. (Amazing, isn't it.)

Well, that's one way...

So somehow last night between Andy's 2am feeding and 7:30 in the morning, I turned off the baby monitor. For all I know, Andy could have cried for the entire time because without the monitor, I can't hear him. So as much as it broke my heart to realize that he could have been crying for hours, I got some pretty good sleep. He woke up with a smile so I guess he survived.

Ok...I give!

Not that anyone has "pressured" me into this but I'm starting to feel a little pressure to have a blog. It's the cool thing to do, right? Aside from that, I've been thinking more and more about how nice it would be to have a way to say what I want to say and have it heard, or not. So here goes...
