Here are some shots from a little adventure we took into San Francisco over Thanksgiving weekend. These little statues were in this great courtyard near Ghiradelli Square. Finn ran around hugging/climbing on all of them. Scott then followed him all over the courtyard as he ran up and down stairs and explored. Crazy kid...


Looks like he's confessing to this owl...or convincing him to join him in some conspiracy

Soccer Monster!!

Scott and Finn have a new Saturday morning pastime...soccer!!!




That's Finn on the right above, #6


They don't actually play a game yet, just little activities that hone their skills.


At the end of practice, he's pretty tuckered. I love things that wear him out!!

Busy bees

Sorry about the huge gap in postings. We've had a busy fall. Here are some pictures to prove it. I'll post more soon! :)

We had dogs to sit on...



Birthdays to celebrate...


Cities to explore...


Cars to pass out in....

Happy Halloween!!

Here are some shots from Finn's first true Halloween. He's a huge fan of the trick or treating and not only wanted to knock on everyone's door and say "trick or treat" but he wanted to go inside everyone's house and visit a while. Pretty silly!

Like Father, Like Son

Finn and Scott rock out on their ukuleles. As you can tell, Finn really "feels" the music. ;)

A day in the life of Finn

I thought it would be fun to give you a sample of what a regular day with Finn and I would look like. To start our day off right, Finn dumped Petey's food bowl into the bathtub so that "Boo could eat them all." So helpful. :)


Then it was off to the Little Farm in Tilden Park. We fed the animals and ran around with friends.


Finn had to stop on our hike for a cheesecake pose on this tree.


On our way home, Finn totally crashed out. For a boy who no longer naps, this was a special treat for me. :)


After a brief nap and a trip to Trader Joe's, Finn "helped" me clean up around the house.


Next we had a rousing game of Candyland....which is really just a race to collect all the candy cards. Super fun!


On to some puzzles. Believe it or not, this is his smile....yikes!


To top off the night, Scott and Finn cuddle up with a little "Jungle Book show".


I would've included a few more bedtime shots, but Scott and I went to a concert, so we missed bedtime. I hope you enjoyed this peek into our daily world. :)

Here's the whole family at the San Francisco Zoo! Like how we're all crammed onto the little bitty train? ;)
