I live in Birmingham, Michigan, with my husband Kyle, our son Nathan and our daughter Evelyn. The blog is named for our late dog Pete, a Rhodesian Ridgeback who died in 2014. Late in 2015, we returned to the US after living five years overseas (Seoul, South Korea and Königstein im Taunus, Germany).

Stateside for the Holidays: Week Two

Week two started with "Mr. Wonderful’s" (Deb's husband Pat) birthday party at Dagwood’s (super fun), and meeting my Mom, Dad and Hadi at Beaumont for Baby C's 18 week ultrasound. It was their only opportunity to “see” Baby C until he/she is born. We counted fingers and toes and got all the measurements we needed.

Thursday I picked Kyle up from DTW and headed to see Michelle, Luke and Graham. Oh, how that little boy has changed! He is crawling and laughing and just so adorable. Especially when he crawled to me and I picked him up and he cuddled me. Awwwwwww. Graham. Sigh.

Friday Kyle spent the morning at GM visiting old pals. We spent the afternoon at Elephant Ears in Ann Arbor making “big ticket” baby purchases. Next, we met Kyle’s Mom and Dad with Kim, Carlos and Joseph for dinner. Whew!

Saturday was one of my favorite events, the annual Bupp Holiday Party. Lots of faces that I haven’t seen since the summer—what a blast!

Sophie, Sage and Sami stayed with us in DeWitt as Jess and Lonnie went home to repaint, remodel and reoutfit Sophie’s room. We had lots of fun together, although they were very curious about where Beepa went (Gram and I told them that he was helping a friend build something—technically true).  Jessica’s video of Sophie’s reaction to the room is priceless…it’s on her facebook, but I will try to post it here when I get it. So cute.
