Once again, yes I still plan to blog.

So it appears that I might be the worst blogger ever. It is not that I don't want to update, post all the amazing stuff Cole does, etc. I just find myself coming home and not being drawn toward the computer. So, all I can really keep saying is I will try to find blogging more appetizing. Perhaps this glass of wine I am having has something to do with it. In the interest of a scientific study, I will try to have a glass of wine each night this week to unwind to see it if leads me to be better at blogging.

Trevor and Aunt Janet in Cali A lot has been happening lately....SEA LIFE continues to be really busy. Chris isn't quite as busy at work right now, since we are now rarely below 110 degrees in the day - not prime golfing weather!! So, he was able to escape to Bandon Dunes in Oregon for 5 days last week. He had a great time. Aunt Janet has said we all need to rent a house up there for a family vacation and I think she has likely won Chris over now.

Cole about 6 months

Let's see...the coolest thing we have done recently (well, the beginning of July - is that still recent?) was to travel to California to introduce Cole to all our Cali friends and family. We had so much fun. Cole was a champion on the car rides and for the most part got a perfect 10 for baby behavior. There was one small misstep at his Aunt Cyndie's house when he was meeting Cyndie and Pollywog. A major breakdown - probably the worst he has ever had. I am going to chalk it up to stranger danger, but it could have been he was jealous of the way I was only paying attention to the delicious Pizza Nova we were eating. Anyone would be jealous when they feel the love I have for that food...I would KILL to have a Pizza Nova out here.

Baby Seth

What else....we stayed with Alli and Brian one night so Cole got to meet a potential girlfriend in-utero. Alli is about 6 months prego so we figure this was Cole's first opportunity to meet Baby Girl Elliott. He already has been betrothed to Kate Ryan, but I think he can try to date both of them at some point before deciding on a lifetime love.


In addition to San Diego we spent a lot of time in Monrovia with family where Cole got to meet a whole host of people, most importantly his cousins! He also spent some quality time with Nani and Papa Spicer and Aunt Janet.


Overall, we had a wonderful trip and traveling with Cole turned out to be pretty easy - although we still have to conquer that plane thing.
