Fun weekend
Posted by: Emily on: August 2, 2009
Super fun weekend with 2 birthday parties, one grown-up BBQ party and a visit to Gilroy Gardens where we ran into friends! Here are a few photos from all the fun:
And of course, mid-week we were so happy to have Carrie and Joel stop overnight on their way between visiting friends in SF and going [...]

Holiday Weekend
Posted by: Emily on: May 25, 2009
I took Friday off of work and made this a wonderful 4 day weekend. Mom was out visiting for a few days so we played on Friday and took Clara to get her haircut. She had to go home Saturday morning and S had to work, so Clara and I had a nice day just [...]
18 Months!
Posted by: Emily on: April 25, 2009
Clara is 18 months old today! I used to be so good about marking each month with a blog post talking about all the things she was doing, but have gotten out of the habit over the past few months. When I read the last one that Karen wrote about Henry I promised myself I [...]
Adventures in Painting

At least it was very washable paint!
See her in action (as it turned into finger painting, before it devolved into face painting)

The bulbs that Clara helped to plant in November have grown into lovely daffodils for her to enjoy!
I would serve…
Posted by: Emily on: December 3, 2007
Just got summoned for jury duty, which would be awfully inconvenient right now. Turns out there’s a special exception for breast feeding mothers though (Rule of Court 859, according to the form). I would do it — I’ve been called twice (served once during college in a stupid case that got thrown out before we [...]
Nice Weekend
Posted by: Emily on: September 3, 2007
These three day weekends are such a wonderful treat — especially when you have nothing special planned for them (since I had pretty much forgotten this one was coming). I slept a lot, read a few books (I am now a huge Kiki Strike fan if anyone needs a good girls-save-the-world type book), made [...]
Stardust
Posted by: Emily on: August 26, 2007
Another satisfyingly lazy weekend afternoon spent at the movies. Today we saw Stardust and, though I knew in advance that it was going to be very different from the book, it was hard to not compare it scene by scene (and think the book much more satisfying). It wasn’t bad, but it was [...]
A Day of Janes
Posted by: Emily on: August 18, 2007
While Brian and Dad are off learning the fine art of fly fishing (apparently Dad already has an excellent “one who got away” story to dine out on), Jane took the opportunity to have an adventure of her own and to come down to SF for a cooking class and then down here to visit [...]
