Michigan, New Tire and Rim, 3 months and 5 Years

Whew! It has been a busy last 2 months. First there was learning this whole new mom gig and trying to figure out some sort of routine (which we are still working on). Then there was Henry's baby blessing and my parents coming to visit(finally) in So. Cal., packing our apartment and moving to Michigan. Once in Michigan it was a visit from my parents and younger siblings again this time to help us unload and unpack plus free babysitting. Plus we needed the van to help carry stuff back from IKEA to make our slightly too small house work for us (for now). After their visit it immediately snowed(yeah!). Then it was grocery shopping and a rude reminder of what all the snow and its removal equipment do to the roads. Yup we hit a giant pothole driving home at night with a trunk full of grocery we had to buy a new tire and rim the next day plus a new battery for our other car, apparently traveling from a hot climate to a cold climate after leaving a light on all night destroys a car battery (who knew). Ore snow and shoveling and cold and wondering why did we leave California! Henry is now 3 months old and I still haven't gotten his pictures taken. Lastly Tucker and I celebrated 5 years of marriage (I finally got my dream mixer the 6qt Kitchenaid in metallic)!
