Theo @ 5 Years

By

 

 


 
 
 
Oh Theo, who thinks his name is Theo and nickname is Theodore.

And occasionally Forest.
 
He's the biggest sweetheart. Always up for hugs and kisses. 

Except when he's throwing a hissy fit. Way too much like me.
 
He's our little math genius, still unsure of the alphabet or how to write his name, but can do simple multiplication or subtraction in his head.  

We were walking through Target recently and he was figuring out how much more money he'd need to get that perfect toy.

He loves video games, playing with Meadow, building structures with his Magnatiles and nimming his blankie. 

I caved in and let him keep it until is completely in shreds.

He has strong opinions and isn't afraid to tell you.

I wonder where he got that from (hint: me).

Theo is still shy around kids and more willing to talk to adults.

How did our shy kids become opposites?

Yardwork, Ikea and Pumpkins

By
My new parents-in-law got us a dehydrator for the wedding. Knowing we were going to be cleaning up the garden and going to farmer's market, we took a gander at our millionth kitchen device during breakfast.   Scott added granola to his oatmeal.  The oatmeal was rather bland, just the way Brooke likes it.   Scott was actually cleaning up so I had to take a quick photo of him as proof.  Scott told me he was, "putting a blanket down for Peanut," while singing. During the winter months peanut needs a warm place to peer through the window. Seeing as it was nearly November, I setup his blanket for him. Seeing as the farmers market season is dwindling down, we headed to the market...once again. The close proximity to the cities central farmer's market has to be one of the best assets of living in NoMi. We were both amazed by the bounty of produce still on sale. We quickly filled up our first bag and took it back to the car....

Work Trip: Redwoods, Humboldt County and San Francisco

By
  We ended up going on some rad adventures this summer, but most of my 360 photography gigs took me to hot and humid climates. The second school starts, I schedule a gig up in Humboldt County. We debated about having them tag along, but I ended up traveling solo. Breakfast at La Joya Cafe was so, so good. Meadow didn't want to miss school, but Theo was all for it.  I flew into SFO and stayed just outside of the city. I had all day to get up to Eureka, so I took my time traversing San Francisco. The weather in San Francisco was gloomy, but that didn't stop me from exploring a new neighborhood, Visitacion Valley. The outlying San Francisco neigborhoods are whole different world from the Victorian row houses and dense core of the city. Viz Valley has such a vibe with the muted pastel pallete. And these ornate gates were everywhere. Something I'd also see in another predominantly Asian neighborhood, Flushing Queens. Almost 60% of the neighborhood is of Asian descent with anoth...

Building a Play Tent

I'm still trying to make meals with what we have. I found buckwheat and brown rice flour in the freezer. So pancakes it is. I also needed oat flour. Thank you grain mill. Not sure this grain mill is worth it since we use it four times a year. Meadow's been putting her learning tower to good use. Meadow loves to feed Peanut. She gets mad at him whenever she's trying to pour food in his dish and he tries to eat whatever she already poured. I think it would be more appropriate to say Meadow likes to dump cat food in a bowl.  Pancakes with whatever fruit we had plus bacon on the side. Whenever I eat pancakes I always feel really hungry an hour later or I feel cloudy. These pancakes actually make me feel full and energized. I'm thinking we need to continue with our Sunday brunches throughout winter. Since we no longer have to rush to the farmers markets our mornings can be a little slower. We didn't have any plans for the day so I s...
