It Happened One Night

A Rockin and a Rollin all night long. Our little baby is rolling all over! It happened almost overnight. Last week it was an accidental roll into the crib slats without much control. A scoot here and there on the floor, in the crib. He has now discovered he can move around. To get a better view of the TV, get closer to toys, and get lots of attention from mom and dad.

Last Minute Trips are always fun!

We needed to Get out of Town! so we packed up Friday night to Go CAMPING....with the dogs and a baby? yup! We headed north where we were hoping for cooler weather and different scenery. We found a Great camping at Sugarloaf state park, North past Sonoma.

He loved the fresh scenery as we were unpacking and setting up and did not put up a fuss..he just watched with interest and wonder. He's becoming more inquisitive and mobile lately. Roly polly. So we just figured he could roll around on the mattressin the tent. and yes he was content.

Mom Chopped the wood for the Fire! Kindling and tinder she did a mighty fine job.

For Dinner: Dad Grilled chicken thighs while mom made Fried potatoes. We always eat pretty good when we go camping.

For dessert we had Brownies! Dad is great with the dutch oven cooking.

It was Cold up in there so We all were bundled up and watched the Fire! The flames are like clouds...what pictures do you see in the flames?

Just sitting tight as Mom and Dad Pack up all the gear. Loving the view from the tailgate!

June and Gloom

June has been a pretty cool (temperature wise) month. Cloud coverage, cool breezes...a very pleasant for running around with a kid!. But the gloomy clouds (which I like) bring some gloomy moods. We think he was cryin' over spilt milk.

Oooohh such a sad face...!

Waaahhhaahaaaaaaaaaaa.........aaaaaaahhh!

The Weekend-Sat

Out of town visitors...Yippee! We like visitors specially when we havent seen them for awhile and they are out of towners. Our friends from Oregon came down to see us ( Mainly the little guy) and the big CITY. We had a long trek thru the city seeing the sights.

Trans America Building- distinguishable in the skyline.

Chinatown for dimsum....don't go to the Chinatown resturant!

Our Tour Guide took us through some pretty rough terrain.....Steep streets! This was a good part of our journey.... and we had been getting steeper...and steeper.

At the top of the hill I was able to see Alcatraz.

We got to see Cable Cars passing us on the incline and thought oh..if only we did not have the strollers. Then we came to Lombard Street Got about 1/2 way down and realized to get to Ghiradelli we'd have to go back up another hill so we best stop here and take pictures then go back up the crookedest/steepest hill!

Finally Down-Hill By then I was pooped. We rested at Ghiradelli square for feeding and potty breaks. Thie wind was cold and overcast so we had to keep bundled up.

Limb for Limb

This week Jaxon as really found that sticking his fingers in his mouth is comforting. It has given me a few extra minutes here and there for sleep, chores, errands........ its also interesting to see which fingers he chooses on a given day. He has also been a kicker since day one so we've been putting things around him to she what he can do. we like to think that he is doing it on purpose. He definetly gets a kick out of our reaction when he plays with the hanging rattles or the Ball.

Time Out.....I'm sleepy...
