As is normal, we had our PI session at work and I’ve added a few photos from that below. It was totally remote due to COVID. We had a chance to showcase Luca too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Otherwise, it was pretty normal at home. Keeping things clean and balancing a couple of kids. The last time there was a photo like this I was holding Elijah and was in Arizona. Crazy how time passes on by. Life keeps coming and doesn’t stop for anybody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luca is starting to get more facial cues, including a cute smile. Check it out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

February of course means it’s my daughter’s birthday. She turned 7 which is hard to believe that I have a 7-year-old. Sometimes I think she is 7 going on 17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lakewood?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yeah, Lakewood Ford. We have been looking to trade in our car (as our current car is getting high on mileage). We found this Silver 2019 Ford Fusion Hybrid. Only has 28k miles on her and should last a long time. We were able to trade our car in (2013 Fusion Hybrid Titanium pushing 100k miles) and get this car (2019 with 29k miles Fusion Hybrid Titanium and more options than our previous) for a few thousand dollars difference PLUS the new car has an extended Ford Premium warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not too bad. I’ll take that deal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
