Ruby Willow Stern!

Rewind two months because I'm so behind... early in May I got to go meet my brand new niece, Ruby Willow Stern!  She was born on April 11, and, in my completely unbiased opinion, is one of the cutest, sweetest babies ever!



My parents visited San Francisco at the same time I was there, so I got to spend Mother's Day with my mama and Ruby met her Bubbie and Zaydie for the first time.

Bonding with Zaydie...



One of my favs- touchdown!  (She's already a yellow jacket fan :)



Sweet snuggles with her beautiful mama:



And meeting the great-grandparents!



Such a great weekend with lots of sweet baby snuggles :)  And got to end it with a mother's day happy hour with my mom and Aunt Susan before flying back to Albuquerque...

Desert in Bloom

Life has been crazy lately and I know I have not been doing a good job of posting new stuff.  Sadly I don't have time to write anything super entertaining today, but here are some pics I've been collecting of blooming cactus and other lovely flowers that are very different from the GA spring I'm used to!



























More exciting blog posts coming soon, including meeting Ruby Willow, a trip to Georgia, a trip to Chicago, and camping!
