Jumping!

Molly loves Robert's trampoline. I think we might need to purchase one of these.

"Mommy, can you take my picture too?"

I ask her to smile for the camera and this is what I get.

Good morning!

Temperence is digging her pancakes.

Ready. Set. Chase!

Molly and Temperence chasing each other around the house before bed time tonight. Believe it or not, but that's Molly's "horsie" sound you hear.

Sleepover

Temperence is over for a sleepover so her mommy and daddy can have a much deserved date night. Post bath wind down with a little Sesame Street to mellow everyone out.

Santa Monica

N had a "work" conference this week at the Loews Santa Monica Beach Hotel. Since this was just up the coast from Auntie Lisa I decided that Molly and I would tag along. We drove down on Monday and drove back yesterday afternoon. As soon as we arrived Molly spied the pool and proceeded to ask me 18 billion times if she could go swimming. Since she had done so well on the drive down I obliged. We immediately got into our suits once we were checked in and headed down to the pool where she spent the next hour splashing around. That night we took off to have dinner with Auntie Lisa while N got his geek on.

For the most part Molly and I took off and did our own thing with Auntie Lisa while N "worked". We stopped by and said hello between sessions and Molly immediately made use of some daddy time.



It was a nice and relaxing few days.

Shhh! We're hunting puddles.

Thanks to the lovely hail storm that we had last night there were a few puddles in the area that Molly could jump into. Once they were spotted she immediately put on her froggy boots so she could splash away. If only she had realized puddles were fun at the BEGINNING of the rainy season.



"I'm going to get you!"



Taking a break between the puddle hunting.



Looks like another storm is rolling in.





Any sign of water and she would stop.

Holy hail Batman!

An intense hail storm woke me up a little after 1:00 am. I thought the roof was going to cave in. It sounded like constant thunder for about 20 minutes and the hail continued to fall for the better part of an hour. N and Molly slept through it.

Angry Birds

N got the new Angry Birds Rio edition (new movie) and Molly finally got interested in the game. However, her idea of playing is to sit in daddy's lap and tell him what to do. N loves it.

Pitstop!

Played hard, now relaxing hard at StarBucks. Basically set up camp by the looks of it.
