Pure Joy!

This is how much fun Kirsten had while we were in San Diego. Can you get much happier than that??? I adore the look of pure joy on her face that I captured in this photo.
And that's why she's still in California. My parents really wanted to spend more time with her, so she stayed there with them until later this month. I miss her lots! But I love knowing that she's having such a fun time with Grandma and Grandpa.
I am also learning that's SO much easier taking care of just one baby than a baby and a toddler. I'm getting lots of stuff organized around the house!
Lots more pictures from our trip will be coming soon!

  1. Oh, that's so great tjat your parents are keeping Kirsten for awhile. I'm sure it's so nice to just take care of one baby instead of a baby and toddler! Enjoy the tranquility while it lasts!

    Should we get together after Kirsten gets back? I want to meet her too!

  10. That picture is GREAT! And how I would love a "break" with only one. And funny how when I only had one, I felt like I always needed a break. :-)

  12. That is great that Kirsten gets to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa. Experiences like that are so precious. My two youngest (not as little as yours--age 14 and 9) get to spend a week with their grandparents at their cabin later this month. They are really looking forward to it. Grandparents are the best!
