One year down and a lifetime to go!

Last day as an eleven month old! And one more day left in the year long Filipino superstition haircut ban, avoiding…who knows?!?

Also to catch up from last week, Meryl and I attended the opening of Beyond Bollywood: The Indian American Experience, the latest Smithsonian exhibit to come to Seattle. It’s also one of my favorite SITES exhibits. The Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI) worked with Dr. Amy Bhatt to curate localized Pacific Northwest stories for the exhibit, she’s otherwise a professor who teaches courses on gender and globalization, South Asia, and feminism. We also got to hear from Washington’s Congresswoman, Pramilla Jayapal, about her journey here and efforts to bring the exhibit to Seattle. Mostly, it was so much fun to see people walk through the exhibit, seeing themselves, and sharing stories throughout.

That point when he ate his weight in meatloaf, and then realized he could double up with cheesecake. And he did.

Thanks, Xanna!

Lawer Estates is opening a tasting room in Calistoga! Thanks to this design duo, there will be light! Also, weekend fun with Xanna to come:)

Meryl has said for a while now that when she gets bigger, she’s going to get to use a knife. Why? To cut food up for Holmes!

Another PT appointment in the books, and with more physical development comes a whole new suite of PT rooms and toys! We love coming to PT appointments because we learn so much. Holmes is doing great, and we’re approaching the finish line.
