More Mammoth Adventures...

What a fun weekend! Snuggling, hiking, snowboarding (well, aspiring to it), taking breathing treatments (and making it look fun), sitting at the big people table for breakfast...its good being P2!

Mammoth!

Our first big family vacation! We all piled into Ferry Godmother's Honda CRV and headed to Mammoth Mountain. It was unseasonably warm so we avoided snow sports and stuck to walking around town and shopping. Baby's first trip to the snow didn't actually involve her getting in any snow but next winter will be a whole different story!

P2 and Mama had a good bonding experience using the Baby Bjorn. We hiked all around town, P2 showed off her groovy new snow boots that Auntie S-Bar gave her.

The drive up was lovely and uneventful, we stopped off at the World's Best Jerky Shop where Papa Steve bought dried papaya or something like it. We passed The Hubcap Capital of the World without stopping...but its good to know about should you ever be in the market (I suppose).

We stayed in the Chateau Montagne...very impressive name, perfectly adequate accomodations. We had some great meals including Ferry Godmother's famous lasagna and two great meals at The Stove.

We had a gondola ride and did some shopping - I will post those pictures later on tonight, they are in Our Hero's camera.

Rollin' rollin'

BIG NEWS!! P2 rolled over today - twice - from her back to her front!!! both times she found herself the other side up and was none to happy, perhaps just none to sure...but she did it! :)

Clever "NEW" places to store things...AREN'T!

As my mother and mother-in-law could have told you in December after seperate but very similar treasure hunts for diamond rings...when we move things to a better place to store them its rarely actually a better place.

I have been looking for the battery charger for my camera for four days now - I know where I used to keep it...it was clever, odd but clever. Then I went on a cleaning fit and decided to reorganize. As a result the charger now resides in a much more "practical" place...I just have absolutely NO IDEA where that might be.

It not in the bathroom, its not with the other electronics, its not in the bag with my laptop, its not in my desk drawer, its not in the nightstand drawers, its not under my bed, its not in the diaper bags, its really just vanished.

I welcome suggestions on where to look...even if you aren't familiar with my environs you may have a helpful hint...

ARGH!


**********************NEWSFLASH**************************************
I found it and I even...sort of....see the logic of where I put it. Its not worth the long story but suffice it to say, it is now back where it "belongs" plugged into the lower socket of the bathroom wall outlet.
