Three Years

Happy Birthday, Phoebe! It's become a tradition for Phoebe and me to have a photo shoot on the morning of her birthday. So here is the history of that activity. She's going up and becoming sweeter, funnier, and at times more difficult but I love her for it. ...

Parental Leave Should be Permanent

I'm about to start my last of 4 consecutive weeks of parental leave (then I'll be doing intermittent weeks off). It's awesome. I'm legitimately considering a sabbatical from work during my kids' younger years for more of these "good ol' days" vibes. Last couple of days have been fun, difficult, and sweet. Phoebe is still taking to being a big sister. Grant is eating and puking like crazy but he seems happy about it haha. We went swimming today. Here are some photos. ...

18 days of Grant

Let me know what you think about the new platform I'm using! Corey Full Album Select Photos ...

Good News x2!

We received two pieces of good news about our next child. First we found out that a previous test that showed a possible genetic abnormality wasn't one, it was one of Jenna's genes and she's fine! Second, we're having a boy! This image is after we got home, we wait to open the envelope since Mimi, Sophie, and Riley were visiting so we all found out together. The bad news is that I've been calling the baby "Otis" and Jenna apparently thought I was kidding about that name. She's not on board. So u...

Hello everyone, I just wanted to test another method of linking photos and videos. I'm looking for a particular set of features so this blog is easier to do. Anyway, here's a video of Phoebe being toted around a store by her cousin Riley. Enjoy! ...

AI Scams on the Rise

This is a short and off-topic post but it's important. If you haven't noticed, AI is getting more and more sophisticated. People are using it to talk/act like loved ones pretending to be in harm's way, kidnapped, etc and extorting money out of people. It's happened to people I know. If you get a call or text like this, don't believe it. Spoofing numbers is easy, so are voices and mannerisms. Soon, live video. Ask personal questions that only that person would know. Don't send them money. St...

New Couch

Hello everyone, I had to rebuild my cloud and all the links are new so some of the previous posts won't have any pictures or videos. For now, check out some new stuff! For our anniversary, the three of us went to the beach and had a picnic where we got married. Phoebe took her first steps. We got a new fancy couch that we had to build from Lovesac. Lots of other stuff happened too. Check out the whole album here. Tap the 4 squares in the upper right corner to view as a grid instead of a list....

May 2023

Hello everyone, Still working on a rhythm for this blog and the best way to set it up. It seems the last post, with just a link to the album, wasn't working well for a couple of people. I think the Safari browser doesn't let you scroll through the album so try chrome or firefox. To make things easier, I decided to include more photos and videos in the post as well but not everything, so you'll still need to view a Nextcloud album folder. I also noticed old posts aren't working well because ...

March Updates

I keep telling myself I'm going to sit down and write a decent post haha. Since that doesn't seem to be happening, I shouldn't let that prevent me from releasing some lovely Phoebs photos. I'm testing a new way to share them by using a self-hosted cloud server. We went to the Carlsbad Flower fields, the rest are just from messing around the house. Enjoy!

Screaming and Giggling

Holidays are a whirlwind, even moreso with a man-cub in tow. Even though I've been taking every other week off for parental leave, we're all super busy (in a good way). I took Jenna to a magic show for her birthday, we celebrated bdays for Brent and Sophie too. We went to a Christmas eve-eve party, hosted Christmas eve, and had Christmas brunch at Jenna's parents house. Phoebe's 4 month checkup had her above the 90th percentile for all measurements. She's the absolute unit, haha. All of t...

I am a very stable genius

We had a nice thanksgiving that we hosted, it also happened to be Phoebs 3 months, but now 4 months is very close also! I've been lacking on blog posts. I'm about half way through my stint of working every other week. I've been getting small things done around the house here and there, and I'm also working on starting a business (details tbd). Most importantly, I've learned I'll be good at retirement, cant wait. Jenna was able to confirm a part time schedule when she starts back in January....

Return of Sleep

Something amazing happened a couple days ago, Phoebe slept her first continuous 8 hour night! Baby continues to grow, as does my beard. I shaved the day before she was born and have grown it since. We had a fun Halloween at my parents and look forward to the rest of Phoebe's first holiday season. "Carrying Phoebe around is making my arms buff." - Jenna Subscribe and sign our guestbook. P.S. Right after I posted this, I saw my daughter laugh for the first time. The first of many. ❤️ ...

The Chubbening

It's been a few weeks since we posted, and a lot has happened! Mostly, Phoebs is getting chubby and even more adorable. Routines are seemingly established and destroyed on a daily basis. I had my first week back to work and will be going in every other week for a while. It was nice to be working again but a little hard on Jenna, we still have to figure out what we'll do when she goes back to work. Subscribe and sign our guestbook. I went to burp Phoebs and she fell asleep haha Sophie and ...

Two Weeks Old

Phoebes made it a fortnight. We're getting into a rhythm, more/less. It almost feels like we're getting enough sleep, just not consecutively haha. We've gotten a lot of support these last couple weeks, thank you all 🤗. There's probably a lot more I could say but my brain isn't working. Bye bye! Naps with Phoebe on your chest are the best. -Jenna Rosie is really into Bojack Horseman right now. Kylie came by and brought us some yummy homemade food. Rosie is making sure Phoebe gets...
