We're Worn Out.











The Savage Family is a tired family. We have been running around like crazy chickens for the last couple of months. Elizabeth broke her wrist at the beginning of March, and I have been doing everything that I can to help her since then. Jesse has been gigging like crazy lately. Meanwhile, wee Wren has been growing, learning, and cutting molars. The result: confused exhaustion.
Jesse and I have been lovingly referring to each other as "Roomie." As we literally pass each other each day. When one gets home from work, the other leaves. When that one returns from work, the other goes to lessons or band practice, when that one goes to bed, the other stays up to take care of day-to-day things that need to be done (like thank you notes, dishes, paying bills, mopping, etc). We are rarely all together at once right now ~ and it's all that we really want. It's wacky. Our mantra: "It's temporary." It seems to help when we remind ourselves of this.

Black and Whites.

Flossing is a good habit.

Wren is Eighteen Months Old!

It's been a whole year and a half! Can you believe it? I can't.

Wren continues to mature into a smart and silly little fella. He LOVES to read books and play outside above all else. He has more and more words every day. He has a silly sense of humor. He loves music. He dances, sings a little now, and plays the guitar and bongos quite well. He still loves to play ball, too. He's a good little guy.

His height is still in the 95th percentile, and his weight is in the 90th. He's a healthy, happy boy.

Tulip Festival.

We decided to have a little family time this weekend. It is rare that we are all three together for any length of time anymore. So, we jumped into the car and hit the road. Destination: Mount Vernon ~ to partake in the beauty of the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival. I think that it is safe to say that it was a bit more than we expected. Wow. I only regret that I didn't plan ahead a little better, my camera battery was barely charged, so I only got a few shots. Some are better than none, though. :-)
