Goofy boy of mine! :)

Eli being a big cheeseball! He's never done this before, but this day, when I took out the camera and started snapping, he loved the flash and was totally playing it up! Perhaps it was because he was making me laugh. He loves it when he can make me or Nathan laugh. What a goofball! :)



Doesn't he look like he's just been caught doing something wrong? Heehee. He has started doing this--holding his hands behind his back--when he's nervous or unsure about something. In this case, we were at the park and he was watching some older kids play and wasn't sure about them. It's the cutest thing. I'm glad I caught it on camera. :)

Since I last posted, I was offered a job at ScrapGirls. (Before I was an un-paid Layout Designer.) Well, Mandy (who is one of the partners of the company) came to me and said that she'd love it if I took on the challenge of becoming the Layout Design Team Coordinator. I was over the moon that she specifically wanted me for the job, and I accepted. I've got to prioritize my time more to fit everything in, but it's a lot of fun, and it's paid! :) That always helps, right? So anyway, I'm really excited about this new venture and it will be great for me.

Oh man, Nathan is in Los Angeles doing some training this week. I hate it when he's out of town, but at least he's close by and not in Alaska or something. Eli and I went and stayed with him last night at the Westin Bonaventure hotel. It's a nice hotel, and it was fun having a little mini-vacation for a day.

The wind is going crazy out here today! It's been chilly and we're definitely not used to that out here. Apparently we'll be getting some storms in, which we need for the rain, but it sure makes Eli and I stir-crazy. Ah well, I guess I can't complain since we were just at the beach last week. :)

I'm so psyched for this weekend. It's my birthday weekend, and Nathan and I are going to drop off Eli with the grandparents so that we can spend the weekend in Cambria, at this beautiful little hotel on the coast. We're going to tour the Hurst mansion and walk around downtown and do lots of fun antique shopping. I can't wait to take some cool pictures and spend some quality time with Nathan. This will be the first time we've left Eli with someone for more than a couple of hours. I hope I'm not too nervous to have fun! :) I'm sure he'll be great and I won't have any need to worry.
