My buddy Andre



Today we had a playdate with our friends Elenor & Andre. We met at the discovery museum for a sunny (but chilly!) morning under the shadow of the Golden Gate bridge. We played with countless fun exhibits and played hide & seek in a landscaped garden. Here is a shot of us practicing going up & down stairs, which we like to do for hours on end.

Noahs



Our little anti-gormand is finally allowing some new items into her culinary repertoire (previously consisting of ONLY the following items: Mac & cheese, pasta with ground meat and tomato sauce-but not spaghetti, cottage cheese, apple sauce, yogurt, smoothies, cookies, and crackers). Mommy was thrilled to find that she ate a blueberry bagel, and even tried cream cheese!

Cruising the Haight




Today we picked up my Tias in SF and cruised around the Haight. I tried on some sweet slip-on Vans at our favorite shoe store, and did some window shopping. Shame that store with rows of little Asian tschochkis was closed.

She Fought Valiantly



...to stay awake until we reached the playground, but after fighting valiantly to avoid her afternoon nap (all day) she just couldn't hold out any longer.

Sunday Walk






We are enjoying the last few weeks of fall before the rain comes, and Redwood Park becomes too soggy for our near daily walks.
It's crisp enough to wear fleece and polka dot chapeaux, but not too cold to play in the dry leaves, hang on the monkey bars and shoot down the slide.

Ecstacy on a Swing







Our little traveler has come to Cincinatti to visit Nico's family for Thanksgiving. The trick of traveling with a toddler, is to keep some things constant. Like naps, snacks and fun. No matter where we go, we can always find cottage cheese, applesauce, and swings.

Stretching the leggies





It's a long drive up from Long Beach, and while Zoe was a great passenger, we all needed to get out and stretch our legs at the Mission San Miguel.

Zoe & the Fish


Nanna, Kelly, Mommy & Daddy all go with Zoe to the LB Aquarium.
The fish were ok. the sharks were ok. The huge octopus was alright. But the otters were the stars.

We have the beach to ourselves



80 degrees as the sycamore leaves are falling, and we have the whole beach to ourselves. Lovely.

Taking the Waters




Zoe immerses herself in the mineral waters of Calistoga on an autumn trip to wine country.

Chickens!


Those little guys are so fascinating! Zoe and Daddy check out the chickens at Preston Winery in Dry Creek.
