Our Favorite Shaded Walking Spot

We often enjoy walking this area of town under all the nice shady trees.

Here I am advertising for Starbucks. Don't worry Mom tricks me and pours apple juice into a cup of ice. I don't mind.

Moxie Is 5 Years Old And I Am 18 Mos. Old!

Here we are celebrating Moxie's Birthday. We thought she would enjoy a nice hike since it is so hot here she rarely gets out hiking. Dad found this great spot close to the house that is nestled inbetween the mountains which makes it a bit cooler.

I didn't enjoy the backpack very much. I preferred hiking!

The same time I turned 18 mos my brother turned 18weeks in utero.

Mom was a trooper and made the hike too!

Only the best for our girl.

Unique Yard Pasttimes

My personal water fountain.

Mom is tickled Dad has taken to her favorite hobby.

Me and My Blankie

Mom won me a new BIG blanket on ebay. It is sooo soft. I love it.

Ribbit Ribbit

When Mom goes shoping she often comes home with something just for me. She recently brought this frog pull toy home for me. She thought she might have gotten ripped off until we got it home. Here I am trying to take my frog for a ride with me. The problem is if I put Froggy in the trunk then I cna't drive. You can see my dilemma.

So I tried to pull him as I drove.
Next, I tried putting him on my lap but there just wasn't room (now I know how Mom feels) !!
He sure is cute and even though I have two other push toys I was never interested in them until Froggy came to live with us.

Race Cars

I love it when Grandma and Dad take me to Target. I get all kinds of cool new toys. Here I am learning to drive the race car. Hury up Dad and put the race cars on the track.

I like to drive FAST. REAL FAST. In fact I only know fast. I can press the trigger all the way down but I have yet to master anything in between. This drives Dad crazy but I know he likes to drive fast too.
Oh yeah when it is Dad's turn I like to entertain myself by catching the cars as they go by.

Grandma Comes To Visit!

YAY Grandma came to vist me and she brought me soooo many cool things!

Here we are checking out the cool bugs she brought me. We play with them every day!! Maybe someday Mom will even know her bugs.
It is impossible to pick what my favorite gift from Grandma is. Here I am playing with my garbage truck. Dad and Mom try and get me outside to see the garbage truck now like Grandma did. They even honk the big truck at me.

Beach Bums

Although it wasn't beach weather we just had to get to the beach. Here we are at Hearts Desire Beach. I found this really cool rock with interesting ocean things all over it.

The water was cold but Dad and I didn't mind.
Dad taught me to skip rocks!
I loved picking up all kinds of rocks. I didn't mind it meant I would get totally soaked.
I really enjoyed all the new and interesting things at the beach.

My Second Giants Game

We took the Ferry boat from Larkspur into to S.F to hit a Giants game.

Dad played some fun games with me on the boat.

Here I am in my Giants gear. It was pretty chilly so I wore my sweater most of the time. Dad is convinced if I didn't wear my sweater so much I would have been on the big screen.

Well we tried to get a shot of the two boys together in their Giants gear. They just weren't having it.

Cousin Rick made it to the game too yahoo

Chillin' with Mom on the boat.

Here we are in the stands

It was Cousin Riley's first Giants game.

You don't think I sat in my seat long do you? Actually after I decided to tumble over my seat and nearly fall head first into the row below (Dad saved me) Dad and Mom decided we should go walking about.

Go Giants

Indoor Play

Hurray I am not too big for the pretty pony yet BUT its music is broken .

A precious moment miraculously caught on camera. Here Riley and I are in our car seats side by side holding hands. Let's hope this is a sign of whats to come.
Just a typical indorr play moment.
This shot just cracks Mom up. Check out the look Riley is giving AND Logan's serious bed head!! Priceless!!!
We went to see Aunt Shawna and Cousin Frances at a nearby play gym. I think I blinked at them while I ran all around.
I even liked the little kid area because it had cushy pads to fall all over.
Story time with Grammy. I am still a voracious reader.
Some light pole vaulting. Definitely an indoor sport.

Organic Blackberry Picking

We went to pet all the pretty horses.....

and stumbled upon blackberry bushes in the wild. Here is how it works....Dad picks them..

and I eat them ALL. Mom and Dad couldn't beleive the amout of berries I could eat. They were sure they would be seeing them for a few days. LOL!
This is not the best shot but you can see how tasty they were! YUMMY

Yay Dad's Here

Dad was in NM looking for our next home etc. We were so excited to see him arrive. Little did he know he would soon permanently hold two little boys on his lap.

I seriously love picking all the flowers and plants possible.

Its ok with me if they are brown and all shriveled up.

Dad always teaches me cool boy stuff. I am a quick study! Here I am picking through the fence into the neighbors yard.

I love to climb. If it is trees and live things that is even more exciting.
Dad got quite an introduction to The O'Connor family oyster BBQ. He got to be the cook and he did a great job! These are fresh oysters we pick up on the coast at an oyster farm. They are quite a treat!

There is an art to "decorating" them. We like 'em hot!
Cousin Rick was a big help and a lot of fun.
