Dallas' First Professional Haircut

Dallas was a bit apprehensive about getting his haircut. He ended up sitting on my lap but was thrilled to sit in the Jeep afterward. And then even more excited about the firetruck (or perhaps that we were done cutting!).

Mays' First Professional Haircut

Mays was a great customer, happily sat in a car and didn't squirm too much. He thought the whole process was pretty neat. We went to Balloon Cuts on Meridian in San Jose. Obviously very kid friendly.

Christmas and Snow

One of my favorite shots on Christmas morning. It's always amazing when we get them in a photo together, and both smiling, AND both looking somewhat at the camera. Mays loved his first visit to the snow. PaPop and him made a fun snowman - with a little help from me, Nana, Dallas and Daddy too.

A Belated Announcement

My Nephew, Connor, arrived November 13th. He's a lovebug. :-)

Happy December!

Wish We Were Still in Sayulita...

Gary Unmarried on CBS

Our friend Al Madrigal is back on TV in a sitcom on CBS, Wednesday's at 8:30. Al plays Gary's buddy (the painter). We've seen two episodes so far and think it's funny. Tune in and let us know what you think. The site online: http://www.cbs.com/primetime/project_gary/

Celebrating Turning Two (early!)

Where in the World Are We?

AND, Which citing is more strange??

Tee Time.

The boys tried out their putters for the first time today. Mays is hitting lefty, Dallas is in deep concentration.

Baking Cookies with Papa?

The men in the kitchen! I love it. Of course we all know who was really baking (and taking pictures too - talented Nana). Thanks Mom for making them oatmeal raisin instead of chocolate chip.

Jam Face

I finally gave the boys jam this morning. Mays definitely liked it. Dallas not so much. Can you feed kids too many eggs? I can't believe how much they eat in the morning.

Our Trip to The Oakland Zoo

Lots of sleepy animals on a very hot day. The boys (and Cindy!) ate their peanut butter sandwich while overlooking the Lion. That's them saying the lion is sleeping. The elephants were the most entertaining, the boys loved watching this particular one splash around in the water.

Thursday Night Out

Thanks to a call from Hanlock we got out for dinner on a hot night. Santana Row was hopping. We entered to win a Ford Flex, Dallas seemed to think it was OK. I kinda liked it, and would be happy to win, John didn't think golf clubs would fit in the back.

I Love Chem Dry Solutions!

Right as we were putting the boys to bed tonight Mays projectile vomited all over. It smells like dinner in their room despite an hour of scrubbing. Glad we didn't have fish - haha! Jordan at Chem Dry to the rescue, I called at 9:30pm, he called me back at 9:44 to let me know he'd be here tomorrow. How great is he? Cindy, maybe you should go with the smaller rug for your little one's room.
