Trip to Seattle!

Jackson and I just got back from a fun filled, and yet somehow relaxing week in Washington! It was wonderful to get some much needed time off the island and just kick back and relax in the cold weather! Thanks so much to my family for hosting us and letting us take over their house :)

People who live in the US just don't realize how good they have it. I went in to a Safeway and almost started crying as I walked down the isles and everything was stocked and beautiful. The produce isle really got me. Big, beautiful (chemically engineered?)fruits and veggies just calling out for me. Ah.... it was a lovely experience.

Celebrating Father's Day early with my Dad, sisters and Jackson at Black Diamond Bakery. It was delicious.

Apparently, blogging is not on my list of favorite things to do

When I started this blog, I thought for sure I'd be on here all of the time giving updates and loading pictures and videos. Well, clearly Amy, you have slacked. And for no good reason, really. Apologies to those of you who read our blog! I will try not to be such a slacker....

Here is a rundown on the latest happenings.

Todd finished midterms in his hardest term of medical school thusfar sucsessfully with outstanding grades. He is doing so well and I couldn't be more proud!

We were recently visited by Todd's parents who came bearing diapers galore! I know it may seem strange and yes, they do sell diapers here, but not PAMPERS SWADDLERS people! These things are important ya know. Anyway, we had a good time with them and we hope they enjoyed their visit too! It was great for Jackson to spend some time with his Grandma and Grandpa Curtis :)

J and I are headed home next week for a visit. June 3-13. We are both excited! Well, I'm excited.... I'm sure J is too, he just doesn't know it yet. I am thrilled to get off the island for a while and looking forward to not being perpetually sweaty all of the time for a week or so. haha.

Anywhoooo.... here's a recent pic of Todd and I out to dinner for you. Hooray!

Jackson "talking"



Hopefully this shows up OK. Jackson talks and coos all the time now. Here's him talking at about 2.5 months. Love this little guy!!

Stuff is different in Grenada....

Including the fruit! Lemons are lumpy, limes are large and look like lemons, in fact, i can't tell the difference between any citrus fruits. Imagine my surprise when I cut in to this watermelon....

It was so tasty though! :)

Happy Easter!!

Hope you all had a wonderful Easter! Here's our little guy in his adorable outfit with his bunnies :) He's two months old now and I have no idea where the time went! We had a great Easter, including a potluck brunch with some of Todd's classmates. It was a lot of fun!
