Weekend at the Jaegers

On Friday Norah and I went down to Grandma and Grandpa Jaegers house in Johnson Creek, Seth joined us on Saturday. We made the trip for Susie's baby shower which was on Sunday. Norah did great traveling once again. It was nice that we went down a little early because we got to visit with the family. We got to meet the newest member of the Jaeger family when we arrived on Friday. Grandma got a baby of her own, a goldendoodle puppy named Tucker. I'll have to tell you about how we met. Well when Norah and I got to the house and no one was home from work yet, so Tucker was in his kennel. I felt bad for the little guy so I took him outside to do his business. After he did both of his businesses I took him back inside and gave him a treat because he was such a good puppy! Just as I got finished thinking how we was so nice, I smelled something funny. I knew it wasn't Norah. Tucker pooped all over the floor! Yuck! Since I was the only person home, guess who got to clean it up? Thankfully it was on the tile and not on the carpet. So Tucker and I have mixed feelings about each other.





Although the weekend started off a little rough, the rest of it was great. We got to spend time with Grandma, Grandpa, Aunt Amanda, Uncle Joe, Uncle Ben, Aunt Susie, Aunt Rachael, Great Grandma Braasch and Jaeger, Cousin Rowan, and lots of other relatives. It was great to see them all. The shower on Sunday was also a lot of fun. It was a beautiful day so we had the shower outside. We had good food and great company. Norah got to meet a lot of her Jaeger family that day too.

Norah did well the entire weekend. She smiled and squealed for everyone. She slept really well which was nice for me. She also started finding her thumb a lot more. I even found her sucking her thumb in the morning when I would get her out of the crib. I guess we'll have to wait and see if she keeps this up. This week we are going to lay low and relax. The only thing we have going on is Norah's photo shoot. We are taking her to have her 3 month old photos taken! I can't believe she is 3 months old already. Have a great week everyone.

Last Days in CA

The last full day we were there my dad took us to an Oakland A's baseball game. It was a lot of fun. It was a nice way to end our trip. I think Katherine andGrandma liked it the best because they stayed home and had Norah all to themselves. Grandma got a lot of snuggle time in.

We were sad to have to leave, but now there something to look foward to, the next time we return.

The Last Few Days in CA

One of the things Seth and I wanted to do on this trip to California was to go to the beach. So on Monday Grandma, Ashley, Katherine, Seth, Norah, and myself went down to Santa Cruz to the Beach Boardwalk. The morning was overcast and a little cool, so we started off on the Boardwalk. The older girls and Seth even went on a couple of rides. It was a perfect way to start off the morning.

After the Boardwalk, we set up our spot at the beach and got some lunch. About that time the sky cleared and it turned out to be a beautiful day. Seth and the girls even went in the Ocean. I only put my feet in, it was way too cold for me. Norah had a relaxing afternoon. She took a nap inside the tent we brought and played in there the rest of the day at the beach.

We were all sad to leave the beach, but we all had a fun day. We were happy that it was the perfect weather too. Norah will now have lots of pictures from her first beach day.

More of CA

While we were out in CA it was so nice of my sisters to come to Fremont to see us, well Norah. It was also nice for Norah because she got to meet her Uncle Jesse for the first time (and yes, this Uncle Jesse is as cool as the one on Full House, he plays the guitar and is in a band and everything). Norah was also able to "play" with her cousin Isaac. (He screamed and made her cry.) It was fun for me and Seth to see Isaac crawl around. He gets so much bigger everytime we see him. It was a fun weekend, where the ladies relaxed and talked, while the boys drank beer and played games.

We were sad to see the weekend come to a close because we had to say bye to Sarah, Jesse, Isaac, and Rachel.

A Little Out of Order

I was planning on putting the rest of our California trip on our blog next, but this happened tonight and I wanted to share it. More CA trip things later.

Out In California

On the 23rd we flew out to CA to visit with the Bergs. Norah did excellent on our traveling day. She only cried once. It was because I had to take her into the cold bathroom on the plane to change her diaper. Other than that she traveled like a pro. Grandma Berg picked us up from the airport and Grandpa, Aunt Ashley, and Aunt Katherine waited for us in Fremont. We all went out for supper that night. They all had fun playing with Norah, and I guess they liked seeing me and Seth too. We had a day or two of relaxing before the Phillips and Rachel came. (Another post to come with more pictures.)
