Good Morning LL!! ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) (Elsa: extra strong today! DGS fuel, please). and Happy Furday!
LL! It's is I, Elsa, Lil Bit, kitteh barista! Ah..... PawPrints Pizza Shoppe is fully operational! They have a signature crust - each one is hand pawed, so that their logo is in the crust! How cool is that! Like I said yesterday: I tolds them to be mega careful though.... watch out for tell-tale kitty fur on the pizza. I so hopes they listen.... :roll: Thanks goodness that they decided pizza formula wasn't a good idea for Nicholas baby brudder... Nicholas didn't like it either... what a relief! They is going to make pizza dinners for them for a week, so mamabean doesn't have to cook. NICE! so. well. anyways. onwards! ~O) ~O) ~O) ~O) time! For today, I proudly offer Elsa's special 10 hour energy coffee, and Triple shot espressos, with beans from Ethiopia, AND.... for all my Mocha fans: a Venti quad almond roca infused mocha, with chocolate caramel whip, garnished with caramelized almond clusters, chocolate shavings, a dusting of crystallized caramel and dark chocolate drizzle oh yeah - it's got a dollop of almond, caramel and chocolate swirl ice cream! .... YUM!!! Pretty good huh Mannie!

Thanks everyone for visiting yesterday - it was such a crazy bust day. I'm sorry I missed everyone's condo, and couldn't really answer in mine either. Nicholas is now the proud big brother to William. What a cutie! Delivery went well for Erin: 10:30 check in, induction drugs a few hours after that, they broke her water at 3, and by 4:25 William was born, sheshhhhh - talk about fast! :shock: :cool: 5lbs, 15oz and a whopping 19" long. mom and baby are doing fine. Erin says she expects to go home today. Nicholas was so excited when he heard William was now officially with us, and that he truly was a big brother. Nothing but smiles. When we left to go home he walks over to William and says "night William". It was cute. William and Nicholas and more William

From yesterday: Nicholas and I had an incredible day on the river yesterday. WOW! We had 70, sun, not a cloud, well maybe a wisp now and then, and the roaring sounds of a very fast but gorgeous river. He had such fun - playing at shore's edge, tossing anything he could find, and settling down for lunch on a log that was right next to the river. One of those picture perfect moments. This river spot is one of my favs, located near the very small RR town of Skykomish, just west of Stevens Pass. It is nestled in the mountain, just so so pretty, After the river Nicholas and I went to visit the town of Skykomish. He so loves trains that we went to see if we could find any. Skykomish has several RR tracks that run through town. We saw some stationary ones, but nothing moving through at warp speed. :lol: :lol: After that we went to the Skykomish River, which is on the the other side of town. LOL: there is only one main street in Skykomish, so the trip was easy, walkable. So of course we river played some more. I came home with a ton of wet cloths: for me always a sign that the day was a great one. Beckler River and Skykomish and the Skykomish River

Have a great day everyone! Nicholas and I will spend the morning at the pool. We will play the rest of the day by ear, so we can get him home in time for William's homecoming. Another busy day in the works. I will try and get to condos when I can. Have a good one everyone!

And kitties? THINK BLUE! THINK GREEN!

Re: 6/7 LOOSE LIPS: a day on the river... and Nick is a BIG

Hi Everyone! Nicholas and I had another great swim day. The energizer FISH was hard at work once again. How that kid loves the pool! We spent so much time in the bigger pool, with him jumping in from the side. There was another boy and girl there that he knows that wnated to do that, so the three of them were jumping in over and over and over again. :lol: :lol: This really seems to be the pool if choice these days., although the beach play area got a good workout too. We went for another Salmonberry hunt on the pool trails after lunch. What fun. He find the berries and I'd have to climb and push through all those thorny branches to collect them HUH? :shock: :lol: :lol: Deng - worth it tough in his book. They were so big, plump and juicy. He zonked on the way home spend and out for the count... once awake we will head over to his house so he can see his mom and dad, see William. Nicholas will be spending the night her again, just to help mom out some. Tomorrow is Erin's Birthday. They will head on over here for a BBQ, celebrate the day with her, and Nicholas will go back home after the BBQ. I will give Erin some recovery time, from delivery, before she is chasing after a 2 year old again. :shock: :lol:

Thanks everyone, Ann, mtncat, Deborah, Lyresa, Cathy, Amy, Lisa, Mary, Ann, Linda and Kathie for visiting today. I am so swamped for time that I just can't answer each individually. Until things settle back into a normal routine (ie, he's not here overnight), I don't know how much time I will be able to spend here. Sure will try though! I do miss you guys, and at least try to follow numbers, etc. I do so hope you are all doing well. All is going well here. DD,DSIL, and William went home this afternoon. From all reports, all is well, mom and baby are healthy, And William only lost .3 oz from his birth weight. Not bad....

Take care everyone.
 
Re: 6/7 LOOSE LIPS: a day on the river... and Nick is a BIG

I'm glad Erin and William got to go home today and are both doing well. Those pictures are wonderful. They put a smile on my face. I know Nicholas will make a great big brother because he is so kind hearted.
 
Re: 6/7 LOOSE LIPS: a day on the river... and Nick is a BIG

Hi Michelle. How exciting to be a new granny again :-D Love the pics. Nicholas looks soooooooo happy. Well everybody does. He's going to be a wonderful big brother. :-D
 
Re: 6/7 LOOSE LIPS: a day on the river... and Nick is a BIG

Hi Michelle,
We got back from Camp Stu today and I saw your wonderful news! What great photos of the family and the new arrival. Nicholas looks so happy to have William for a little brother. What fun they will have together! I can see swimming, hiking, paddling, and best of all, great adventures with Grandma!

I'm sure that you all are very busy. Happy Birthday to Erin tomorrow. You all will have a lovely party and bar-be-que. Try to get some sleep tonight. Nicholas will probably be tired out! :smile:

Elsa, at camp we enjoyed your coffee so much. THANK YOU, Kitteh Barista. Keep an eye on the rookies. They are beginning to shape up, but they need supervision.

Have a lovely evening,

Hugs and scritches,

Ella & Rusty
