California Dream'n
We've been living my "California Dream" which is spending so much time outside and with great friends that I've had no time to be inside on the computer! (I love being outside in beautiful sunny weather and NOT be HOT!) That and I don't have a computer while Kurt's at work and we had no internet for over a week, that was interesting and I realized how dependent I'd become on Google Maps to help me find my way around here. Time to do a quick catch up. Kurt's summer internship is with Sun Microsystems located in Menlo Park, California. We arrived here May 20th. And so far everything has been awesome. A few things I wanted to remember about these past few weeks....
- Lucy and Owen sleep in a room together, the first couple of nights were rough, but now they have no problem with it and I think it is so cute to sing them their songs and leave them alone together.
- One morning Owen had eaten crayon, soap and glue before it was even 10:00 am. Can anyone teach him that FOOD tastes better then everything else?
- Lucy reading stories to Kurt and I and trying with all her might to only say the first part of most of the words. For ex. She went to the schoo (school), and found her bo (book) and read a stor (story). ??????????????
- Lucy naming each one of her frosted mini wheats and talking to them before she ate them.
- Lucy scolding her markers and putting them in time out
- Owen getting through the "child" proof medicine cap and dumping a brand new bottle of infants motrin all over the laundr-o-mat floor. (thank goodness it was the floor and not his mouth--lesson learned--child proof is not Owen proof) He looks so sweet and has such a great smile that I forget sometimes how much trouble he is.
- The day that Owen had an ingenious idea to move the stool around where ever he needed an extra 12 inches to get into things. Time to move everything up a drawer!

No way!!!! You're here too :)
You need to come over for dinner. I'm living in Palo Alto -loving Ca, too.
I laughed at the cereal naming. Kind of hilarious.
There's a house I want to take you and the kids to -the Playborhood. Would be really interesting for you as an educator/parent and the kids would love it because it's built for kids.
Call me :)
Sounds like you guys are having alot of fun this summer! I love the part about Lucy giving her markers time-outs. Scott and Madeline do things like that too and I find it hilarious!
So jealous. It is raining season over here and we're doing a lot of inside screaming -- both Abby and I. They are both adorable.
