These Days…

It’s hard to believe Sophia is almost 16 months old and even more difficult to believe that another little one will arrive on the scene in a few short weeks. Fortunately, my ever growing belly helps keep everything in perspective. At nearly 16 months, Sophia is such a delight and has really grown to be…

As American as BBQ and Beer

July is in full swing and the Wiktors are knee deep in adventure again. The 4th of July allowed for a little extra time off of work which is always welcome! “Mumsie” came to town for a little over a week and we spent most of the time she was here working on projects and…

Wrapping Up Spring

Maybe it’s the May grey, June gloom SoCal weather but I can’t believe summer is right around the corner. Where is 2012 going? Spring found us busy with some small but important projects around the house and was rounded out by my parents’ visit for Sophia’s birthday. The first project was a minor kitchen renovation…

Sophia’s First!

Here we are, half way through May and we’re finally getting around to writing about Sophia’s first birthday. The day certainly didn’t come and go without celebration! My parents visited to help Sophia celebrate her big day and it was great having them here (more on their visit later). We had a pretty low key…

Spring Has Sprung!

We might not have had the spring heat wave the rest of the country experienced, but spring is here and the Wiktors are enjoying every minute. As Phil mentioned in the last post, he has been busy on his second batch of home brew. The other weekend Phil spent a Saturday night crunching numbers so…

March Madness

Well not a lot of basketball per say but still a busy month at the Wiktor household. I was gone for a good portion of the month for work-related reasons but we made the most out of the time I was around. March saw a few things that have been sitting on the ToDo list…

Sunday Hello From Sophia

Sophia sure is a busy lady these days, but she decided to take a break from her Sunday activities and say hi! So what exactly is Sophia up to these days you ask? Take a look!

My Favorite Subject

Contrary to what you see on our website, I do take quite a few pictures of Ms. Sophia. Unfortunately, most of these pictures are taken on my phone (which might not be so bad if I had one of those fancy iPhones, ahem). Either way, I love scrolling through the pictures and seeing how Sophia…

Jolly Days

Earlier in the year we decided to stay in California for Christmas. When we heard Mike and Heather were doing the same, the Wiktor families decided it would only be appropriate to join forces in Santa Cruz. Kathy and Carolyn couldn’t be left out and made plans to join us as well. We were set…

Movember

Fortunately for me, Phil didn’t participate in the mustache movement but the word is kind of catchy. November hasn’t quite come to an end but the holidays are already in full swing here leaving me to wonder where the month went. Here’s a quick rundown… November started with the usual pomp and circumstance for the…
