Sitting Up!


Levi is getting pretty good at sitting up these days...although you can't leave his side yet, because he always ends up tipping over sooner or later! Actually, I was pretty afraid that he was going to tip off this bench that I set him on for this photo op in Dee's garden. I bet that by the end of his fifth month he'll have it all figured out. He is much happier when he can sit up and play with a toy--he is pretty squirmy and usually doesn't want to be held, doesn't want to lay down, and doesn't want to sit in his car seat. This is the moment he has been waiting for...until he decides it's time to skip crawling and go right for running!

Weekend update.

On Saturday we dropped off both kids at Mimi's house and rushed over to Seaforth in Mission Bay to rent a "real" boat. Well not to belittle our wonderful "Lil P" but we did want to try out something bigger. We rented a Catalina 250 (25') and took it out of the harbor on what turned out to be a perfect sailing day. The wind was between 5-10 kts and the sun was out the whole time. We both got to share sailing duties and felt comfortable quickly. After our 2 hrs messing around we sailed downwind right into a smooth landing at the dock. Easy...fun...might do it again with family? Any takers?


Then on Sunday evening we made a dinner and brought it to the cliffs on the beach in Carlsbad. Despite a cold wind we all had fun. Well, Levi slept through it all but the rest of us enjoyed a cold dinner and a cold breazy view.

Brushing Teeth

Making Faces

Parker isn't a big fan of having his picture taken--I guess all those times we shoved the camera in his face and begged him to do something adorable since the day he was born have backfired on us a bit. However, one of the best ways to get him to agree to have his photo taken is to tell him to make a silly or crazy face--hence the many photos that we have of him doing something a lot like this:


p.s. Wow, he really does have an Eddie Munster haircut right now...geesh. No one knows what to do when it comes to cutting the front of his hair...can't wait till it grows out a bit! 

Cutest Kids Ever

Some fun on Lil P

here's a video I made of a short sail the day after the Japanese Tsunami. It was a lovely day although not quite enough wind for my tastes.
