We also took a little family road trip to the beach in North Carolina (just 8 people in a van for a very, very long time). We all survived and had a great time in the process! Now we are back and trying to get settled in before work starts full-time in August. I have loved this extra time with Cooper, BUT...I think it's time to get back to work!!!</span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;">Here are a few random pics from our last few months...</span></span></div></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#333399;">We got to celebrate our good friend Claire-bear's second birthday before we left LA.
