Hi Jessica,
Very cute pictures. Love them. Just thinking of you and wondering how your transcription is coming along. I'm sorry we were not able to hook up again before you left. Things are super crazy busy on my end. I'm sorry. Hoping you are still plugging away. How is that foot pedal working out for you? Also, I have a friend who has a bunch of Similac formula that she is not using. What are you using? If you want it, I will get it from her. She also has some clothes. Not sure when you will be back to Napa but let me know. Give me a call when you get a chance. I would love to hear how your coming along. Thinking of you often!

"Keeping Kenley" .... not in the sense that we chose parenting(thats old news) but instead the idea of being able to her remember, 'keep' her little when she isn't anymore.

Mostly, gathered here are our thoughts and memories from our adventure in Riverside, originally written for our friends and family back home when we missed them most.

Now that we are back home I find myself here, writing about the little things and hope for a time to keep our friends down south updated instead...

Kenley has given me inspiration to write again.

The first post on this blog was right before our big move to southern California (September 2010) with our two month old Kenley. I planned on keeping our close friends and family updated on our happenings in our new city... hundreds of miles from home. I know that some of our happiest memories as a family were there as well our biggest struggles. I cant wait to look back on it all.

For now I am a full time student at Sonoma State studying Kinesiology. I love fitness. I love school. so, it works.

I do part time medical transcription from home. The flexibilty and hours cant be beat.... I work in my sweats.

I blog for/with/ and because I am a young mom... discovering all that requires and curious how other young families do it all. Most of the blogs I follow are young moms that I know (and dont know) .... and in case you were wondering it still seems like none of us have it all figured out yet.

In SoCal I worked at a "crunchy" baby and children's boutique in Redlands called Kissui -(Japanese for: pure & natural) where I fell in love with attached parenting and became a hippy when it comes to raising my babe. I dig cloth diapers, baby wearing, breast feeding, co-sleeping and hit the lotto when Kenley got into the (just-as-hippy) Children's School on SSU's campus.

Kenley is an adventurous little soul and thrives beyond our wildest dreams now that she is in preschool. She amazes us every day with her creativity, intellegence and passion.

thanks for stopping by :)
