We Made It!

We finally finally finally got moved in to our new place in Menlo Park. We have been here for 10 days now and just got our furniture two days ago. Then we just got internet today. So I officially feel like we've moved in. I even put up the first picture on the wall this morning. We did it! Paul started work on Monday and he's loving it. We are so happy to be here and feel so grateful to be done with school and have a great job. So let us know when you want to come visit. We have jelly bellies just waiting to be eaten.

Baby Mozart

Reece picked up this new trick while visiting Mozart's home town of Salzburg. We'll post more vacation pictures and videos later, but this couldn't wait.



It turns out most babies do this at some point or another. But Reece also loves it when we sing along to his music, and he loves when his dad plays the guitar. So yes, he is a musical genius.

Utah Vacation

Reece and I spent the last three weeks in Utah while Paul studied for and took his CA bar exam. He joined us halfway through our stay, and none too soon. We missed him like crazy and were so happy to be back together again. We loved seeing everybody that we could see and missed those that we couldn't (Ryan, Liz and Owen, we're talking about you). Though we're glad to be back in Los Angeles, we are definitely missing our family and friends.



The next big adventure is moving to Menlo Park in September, so start planning on when you're coming to visit us!

Peek-a-boo

Puke-tastic

I just found this picture of Reece from a couple weeks ago. Rolling in his own vomit is probably his favorite game.



And yesterday Reece learned how to suck on my chin. Don't ask me how he figured that one out.

Reece-a-Roni

Here are a couple of new Reece videos. What? You think we should have something else going on in our lives? How could we when our baby is so cute? So he's been doing these little laughs every once in a while but it's super hard to get in on camera. Mostly because he stops doing anything once he sees it. So here is just a taste of his cute little squeal laugh:




I love when Paul plays with Reece. It's just adorable:




And one more short game of peek-a-boo. Obviously it didn't catch on very well:


By the way, Paul takes the bar in three weeks, we just got back from Palm Springs for the fourth of July, and we recently bought tickets to Germany. We're celebrating Paul's graduation/taking the bar/possible last chance to take a vacation ever. We'll be traveling to Utah for a couple of weeks then heading to Europe for two weeks in August. Yipee!

Recent Reece

Reece is learning so many things so fast, it's hard to keep up. Right now (I mean right this second) he's talking to his toys. However, the video below is from a couple weeks ago. He's just learning this week how to grab them. He's been able to suck on his hands for a couple of weeks, but now he's getting to where he can suck on his toys (on purpose) without my help. He's also learning that if he kicks his little mobile, it will sing to him. He's already been quite the kicker, and this is just making him more so. I'm totally fine with all that kicking now that he's not inside my stomach. No problem at all now.

I'll just put a couple videos on here, and if you want to see more pictures just go to our web albums (link on the left). We've got some pictures in there of his blessing weekend, Paul's trip to Oregon (by the way, he got a clerkship with a judge in Portland starting fall of 2010 for a year), and just more cute Reece-ness. Enjoy!
