Six Flags Discovery Kingdom

Last Saturday might have been the best day of Eve's life so far. Definitely top five.










toy obsession

Although she feigns disgust and boredom (and even pretends that she was attacked) in this video, Ella loves batting these toys.

iPhone era

After years of always having the worst cell phone of anyone I knew (and not caring), I joined the crowd and got an iPhone.  What that means for this blog is that I always have a camera when the opportunity for a good shot arises. Of course, the quality of photos isn't great, but I'm not complaining, because the iPhone does everything but wash the dishes (which I'm assuming the iPhone 5 will do).  Below are photos from the first couple weeks of my iPhone era.

The new and improved Ella



Potty break at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Eve has made huge progress with the toilet training, and is up to a very high daytime conversion rate.





Thrilled about the unexpected trove of toys in the lounge by the San Pablo Reservoir. This seems to be a play area to leave kids while people go fishing. Genius.


No idea where she learned this

bye bye colic?

Just as she approaches the 3 month mark, Ella has become a completely different baby. Constant crying has been replaced by constant smiling.  May it last forever.

Ella's 2.5 month weigh in

She's 12 lbs 4 oz achieved the old-fashioned way! She still won't take the bottle.  Today she screamed for over three hours in protest.
