It snowed in Seattle this week! Being the end of February, will March roar in like a lion?

 Sesame mochi balls are a favorite in this household. Frank’s Dad was a fan too and named them, ‘buchi.’ Who doesn’t like sweet glutinous rice?

Meryl and I went to get balloons to celebrate a co-worker’s work anniversary tomorrow. She may have also walked out with some helium for herself. Let’s hope it doesn’t all go to her head:)

 Eighteen months going on eighteen years! Meryl is a year and a half today.

Meryl is insistant that she climb steps like an adult.

This party girl ended up running a temperature and conked out at the breakfast table while we were catching up with Kristi and Erin. For me, I stocked up on alllllll the cuddles. (She’s feeling better today.)

Noelle, and Caleb stopped by for visit! Allison is two months away from baby #3, so we all contributed name suggestions. I’m partial to Ludwila Bedelia, and from the looks of it, everyone surely agrees!

Xanna was more than happy to kick us out of the house.
