Oh right, blogging....

Hello blog. How are you? I've been busy and have neglected you. So first, here's a cute dancing baby video.


Update on life - I started my own law firm! Fun! Also, why I haven't blogged. Jason made me a fancy website because he is awesome... and I'm getting busier and busier.

Also, we moved in March! We love the new place, and the boys love their new (shared!!) room and fun bunk bed.



The boys have grown a ton since I last blogged, and it's funny to see that picture of them in Liam's first b-day video below looking so little!!! Ben's almost done with Kindergarten, they get out June 15. And Liam is 1 1/2 now. Crazy!

Aren't they adorable?


Ben played soccer this spring and loved it


See that cute little red scar on Liam's head? He tripped and cut his head open on the coffee table :( 5 stitches, and it was very sad!!!! He's a little bam-bam, and climbs on everything.


Actually, they are both pretty crazy. and weird....


Random picture of the cousins watching a movie together.


Monkey.


Ben does not want a haircut. He's a skater now. Or Justin Bieber. Or something :)


So cute.

Happy Birthday, Liam.

I can't believe my baby is one.



Jason made this video, and showed it at Liam's party last night (he actually turned one on the 10th). It made me cry just a little....

My adorable family

We have at least 35 squajillion pics of our family. But not very many of the four of us all together, and no professional pics. Jason and I both needed headshots, and so we decided to just get family pics at the same time. Jason knows Lisa Teso through her husband/flickr so he had her take our pictures in Laurelhurst park and they came out SO. GOOD. Love them all. Sadly, we aren't millionaires (yet!) so we had to narrow it down to 35 out of the 160+ awesome ones she sent us to choose from. And here are a few of my absolute favorites:

Hero Burgers!

For everyone who asked, here's the hero burger recipe. Make them, they are weirdly delicious.

You need:


*1 lb. raw hamburger or a mix of hamburger and ground sausage. I like the mix.
*1/2 chopped onion
*1 can tomato soup
*1/4 c. Worchestershire sauce
*crushed garlic - however much you like. The original recipe says one clove, I think we
used about 4.
*steak seasoning
*oregano
*hero buns
*fresh tomatoes
*cheese, whatever kind you're into


First mix 7 ingredients together in a bowl. Then split the buns in half, lay them out on cookie sheets and broil the bread until it's brown and toasty. Take your hamburger mix (yes, it's still raw) and spread on the buns. Kind of squish it in a little. Cook your hero burgers @ 400 for about 10 minutes. Push the meat down again. Then cover with cheese, and put them back in to melt the cheese. After they're done, put slices of the fresh tomato on top, and eat. Ketchup for dipping is also delicious :)

Halloween, and my crafty MOM!

My mom made Ben, Liam, and Amelia some fabulous costumes this year. She spent four straight days sewing, and they turned out so cute! Liam is an elephant, Amelia is a pink kitty, and Ben is the Green Lantern. We went to Ben's school Halloween party Friday night, and then Saturday Jason's mom & Charlie came up, and Laura, Jake, Amelia, John, and Aziza all came over for Hero Burgers and Trick-or-Treat. I love Halloween!!!
