  • Zoom Friday: The Joy of Swimming

    With summer upon us, we’ve been spending a lot of time in the pool. We’re lucky enough to have a community pool nearby; we can see it from our windows and it’s just a quick walk away. One of our neighbours, however, is currently using a pool construction company to…

  • Zoom Friday: A Library for a Little One

    Zoom has really enjoyed reading books for awhile now. We kept his books in various places throughout the house, some mixed in with toys, and others upstairs in his room. We’ve reached the stage where he likes to get in to things in the living room, and since he’s pulling…

  • Zoom Friday: Tea with Ladies and More Plum Updates!

    On Thursday, Zoom and I ventured in to San Francisco with Nola (his Grandma, my Mom). We stopped off at Samovar Tea Room for lunch. It’s got such a light, airy feel, and has delicious food. Zoom had apples, some of Nola’s sandwich, and a lot of puffs. He loved…

  • Zoom Friday: 9 Months Old

  • Zoom Friday: ‘Crawling’ and ‘Dancing’

    Zoom has been quite busy working on some new skills. Over the past few weeks he’s learned to “army crawl.” In the last week he’s gotten quite quick and made his way into the kitchen. One of the funnier moments was when he started yelling at the refrigerator. I fed…

  • And there’s this to contend with…

    This just in. Zoom is now able to pull himself up and stand unassisted. In other news, he is also wearing pants sized 24 months that clearly are a tripping hazard. Bad combo, mom, bad combo.

  • Zoom Friday: Weekend Fun, Lemons and a Music Festival

    This last weekend, we had time at home for a lot of family fun. Saturday afternoon was lazy. We hung out in the dining room and backyard, and picked our first lemon from our dwarf Ponderosa tree. For some reason, there wasn’t a lot of juice in the lemon, but…

  • Zoom Friday: Zoom Goes to a Wedding

    This last weekend, we went to Tucson for my cousin’s wedding. It was a trip of many firsts for little Zoom. He went on an airplane, he got to see some live music, he went to a wedding, he wore a suit with a bow tie, and he went swimming.…
