A Walk in the Park...

It was beautiful here today, and we took advantage of the afternoon by taking a long walk through Aquatic Park and up to the park above Ft. Mason. It overlooks the Golden Gate bridge and the bay was filled with boats. The park with its grass and walkways, and many people, dogs and bicycles was perfect for our little guy who is all about walking these days, loves dogs and is fascinated with bikes. Seeing all the boats also gave him a chance to say one of his favorite words--boat (he sounds Canadian when he says it!)

His other words at the moment include: hot (hawt), ball, bowl, nose, NO, nuum (milk), hello (heyla), shoes (zeus), yes (ses), more (mo'), moon, (moooooonnnnn), moo, baa, and just tonight: apple (clear as day!) and abanama (banana)--he understands 10x as many and will point away. He still signs for more, milk, and all done.

He has been sleeping great this last month, which is very normal with walking, but the naps have been much less significant and therefore my time to get stuff done very limited. I do miss being able to pick up the phone and talk to a friend until we are all talked out... I do love my time with B and enjoy the changes that are happening every day at a rapid pace. Enjoy...

Walk This Way...

Fun in the Sun!

The weather these last few weeks has been pretty spectacular. September and October generally are the best months weather-wise that San Francisco has to offer. We have all been enjoying our chances to be in the sunshine and SWIM!

First (real) Haircut!

Okay, so I've snipped his bangs a few times, but the last time was nerve-wracking and the results were miserable--kid looked like he had backed into a weed whacker! So, in anticipation of a very busy week (and month!) off we went today for a haircut at one of those aimed for kids--fast (very!) with a variety of chair options and stuff to play with while the snipping happens... Here Brennan is with Elena, the gal who did the deed, and seated in the race car chair.


I think both the results and the process worked for both of us!


So dang cute, he is!

16 months

I have been so bad about posting--little guy is keeping us busy!
I promise that I will get to all the pictures from this last month soon!

At Home...

Hmmm, water or milk, water or milk? BOTH!!
