Now that the mini apocalypse is over in this here house, we have gotten back to filling our weeks with outside time, preschool and learning, and a healthy dose of chores. Still, we've definitely packed in some fun. Here are the high lights!

Unlike typical Pacifica summers, we have had quite a few clear, warm days here. While I personally love me some fog, it has been a nice change up and we have had some amazing views and walks as a result. Our latest ones were over the old Devil's slide road and Mori Point where my Mom found several wild rabbits heading home every night around sunset. We've also found some new [to us anyways] views over by Battery Crosby Road [by way of Land's End] and a few other ones. I think the kids favorite was probably the Discovery Museum in Sausalito though. SO much fun, so creative and interactive with the gorgeous bridge backdrop and great weather. Seriously, one of my favorite days-why can't Lester be off all the time, am I right?!?



























We have also been hitting up our usual hot spots of the zoo, the Academy and the parks. Doesn't matter how many times we do these, we always have fun and learn something new. Luckily, our friends and the girls seem to enjoy it as much as we do. We've also visited with Lolo & Lola here and there of course. All of this has been great!











We also had a chance to catch up with some of my Mom's side of the family when we met up in Santa Cruz for a beach day. The girls loved hanging with their cousins almost as much as I did and it was so fun having Lester around to play catch with and get to know everyone better. Our little family went to the Boardwalk afterwards by ourselves and we were impressed with how many fun rides they had for the girls. We also loved the food and reminiscing about all the good memories and people we used to hang out with there.














Like I said earlier, apart from this its been regular life as we know it, with preschool and learning and chores. It is such a joy watching and helping our girls develop each new skill, and we are always amazed at how much they seem to figure out themselves. They are amazing girls, and we are so lucky to be a party of their journey. Isla is now a full fledged walking machine [she goes Frankenstein style with both arms out and we love it] and has quite the sense of humor, trying to make jokes and silly faces, and copying her sister and singing and dancing. Addy knows everything from her alphabet, colors, shapes, numbers and of course, all of this with a healthy dose of hilarity and attitude. She likes to tell us jokes and secrets, and is working on processing and developing her emotions a bit, as expected, but its kind of nice having her being a little more attached then usual. She also finally has enough hair to do ponytails and braids. We love our ladies!



We still have a ton of fun stuff coming up, and we are coming up on our 5 year wedding anniversary next week. Such an incredibly blessed, wonderful life we are living right now. So that's our update for these days-until next time!
