Brendan brought back pressies from Utah today and as needed a helmet for Page. She had a bit of a crash while I was on the phone with Grandma Sam the other day. She decided to undress herself and go for a bike ride, ride out the front door and off the front step and had a little bump to the head. So now we have a helmet! She is so excited. We pulled out Jack’s jersey from “Still to big to wear” drawer, but who cares (thanks Tescher!)
First time ever going over the bridge
Ok, I can get used to this
Again!
Feeling brave and trying the hill outside the driveway
High five Mama! I did it!!

Page and I are solo this weekend. Originally we were all headed to Park City for a long weekend, but we let Dad be a bachelor this weekend and ski and hang out with his buddies (in other words I was too tired from pulling all all-nighter launching our PAIFF site to connect the travel dots…OOPS)
So Page and I were hanging out in the bath and all of a sudden this very loud voice said “EVACUATE, EVACUATE, CARBON MONOXIDE LEVELS DANGEROUSLY HIGH.” and then a bunch of other scary words. So Page and I got dressed and ran out of the house before it blew up. Not knowing what to do we asked Google, of course, and it said to call 911.
Long story, short. Three very nice firemen came and rescued us from our faulty carbon monoxide reader and Page got to sit in a fire truck. She could not stop talking about it after they left, for about an hour. We called Grandma Sam and she got an earful. Pretty funny that Page is now telling stories and that our tax payer money goes to moms with carbon monoxide that need new batteries!

Today was brilliant. I will try and count the ways.
– Page told us she had to go peepee and went peepee! When we got all excited, she did a casual shrug and a “Ya” like she was a pro already
– Brendan went with me and Page to get coffee at our fav coffee shop (he usually doesn’t go as he doesn’t like coffee)
– Brendan and Page dropped me off at home and left me home alone by MYSELF for almost 3 hours. I watched a movie, stared at the ceiling and took a nap, amazing. The troops went shopping and bought the most adorable shoes and clothes for Page, she was so excited when she came home to show me her new shoes. The girl definitely likes to shop.
– We all went together to the new library and got some new library cards, the library world has come a long way since the Dewey Decimal System.
– We walked down to lake on the way home and watched the sun set
– Came home, listened to some tunes, popped in a pizza, played night-night with the bears
– Page asked (what is THIS?) to go to sleep at 6:45 without one whimper or complaint
Ok, so no rad bike rides or world record mountain climbs, but I’ll take today over any day. It was perfect.

We had an awesome long weekend in Park City. Brendan was superDad again and watched Page while I did the Sundance thing. It was a VERY beneficial trip – some huge connections were made and fingers crossed that PAIFF may be in a VERY good position soon, hope to have more news on that soon…
We were lucky to spend the trip with Missy and Mike at their beautiful home in Jeremy Ranch. It was kid heaven! Page loved the snow and her new friends Ewan, Neala, Finn and Brady. I have never seen her so excited. And of course, she donned her Sundance hat and scarf…

Page eats VERY well when she is at Nata’s house. I do, too! Every time I drop off and pick up Page at Nata’s – their house smells of yummy homemade goods. Today I was able to sample some Ukrainian ravioli, it was so good!
Page is learning how to be a good baker. Here she is preparing the pyrojki.
