Out & About

Tuesday: We went to a Kindermusik Class with Amy & Baby Lara here in town. The first class is free (which is one of the reasons why I suggested we attend) and it incorporates sign language, music and dance for newborns to 12 months. The class lasted for 45 minutes and both babies were awake and alert the entire time. It was entertaining to see what sights and sounds Flora enjoyed and paid attention, along with observing the older babies in the class, sitting up, crawling and walking and participating in their own way.

Afterwards we went to lunch at an Italian restaurant downtown and sat outside to soak up the warm Spring air.

Wednesday: I did some serious Spring cleaning. And it's going to be continued all weekend long!

Thursday: Flora's 7 weeks old!!!
Flora and I drove across the Golden Gate Bridge for her first time, and visited Auntie Katy and Baby Sage (still cozy in her belly) due to arrive any day now. Katy prepared quite the selection of lunch items. The menu included: avocado and cherry tomato with goat cheese crostinis, twice baked potatoes, fruit salad, and chicken salad tea sandwiches. We visited for hours laughing and discussing everything baby. It's so exciting to know my best friend is going to be a mommy in just a matter of days! I can't wait to meet Baby Sage and have play dates!

Friday: Brian finished work early and had a rough week with BS at the office so naturally I insisted that we pack up the car and drive out to the countryside for a relaxing picnic. But first I demanded he take two double chilled vodka shots at our local (and favorite) watering hole. One in my honor of course. And yes I sat in the car, with the dog and baby while he threw 'em back.

Saturday: We took a trip to Costco and picked up a new, smaller dog bed for Newts and came a cross a deal we couldn't refuse on my favorite beer, Kona Longboard (variety pack)!
