Jace's First Owie

Jace loves playing and hiding in his bedroom closet - or any closet for that matter.  I'm always nervous about smashed fingers and rolled over toes, but Jace has surprisingly managed to keep his little digits away from danger.  Unfortunately, the streak has ended and his big toe was no match for the sliding closest door. :(  The good news is that though he did whine a little, there were no tears shed.  What a tough little man!

And of course, there's no way I could pass up a good photo op after seeing the Winnie the Pooh bandaid on his cute little toe!  (Bad mommy!)

Habitat for Humanity 2012

Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization that provides simple, decent, and affordable homes to low-income families across the world.  My team at work joined forces with others at a construction site in Daly City for condos that will serve as new homes for 36 families in March 2014.  What a fun and rewarding experience that was!  I'm so excited to see what the final products will look like..

 

Annadel 2012

My husband, Joe, was participating in the Annadel 2012 bike race in Santa Rosa this past Saturday, and of course Jace and I had to be there to cheer him on.  (Great job, Daddy!)  Afterwards, we headed to Sausalito for some family fun at a local park where Jace could practice his walking.  He's finally mobile at almost 15 months and he's loving every moment of it.  I can't wait to see what adventures lie ahead for this little explorer...
