A Portrait of the Artist As a Young Baby


My mom is going to have a new office so we thought it she could use some art for her walls. Thomas made his first painting for her and it went so well he made another for his Aunt Sam.

Meeting Luna


Our friends Skylar and Joa had a little girl, Luna. She's adorable. Her parents swear she sleeps eleven hours a night. We don't really believe them, if only so we can continue liking them.

City Christmas Tree Lighting


We love the town we live in, because it has super cute things like a town Christmas tree lighting complete with skating rink, sleigh rides, carolers, an orchestra and tap dancing Christmas trees - yep, tap dancing Christmas trees. Grandma and Aunt Sam came up to go with us and Thomas got dressed up for the occasion.


Adam also did a Christmas boutique next door at the Elks Lodge during the day, but it ended just in time for the festivities.


We met the Miners and the Govers there. Unfortunately, it draws a pretty big crowd so we never found the Yalin's, but next year! It was the first time we got to meet the Grover's new baby, Easton.


Our friends Chris and Sarah happened to be in town from Canada, too.  They were unprepared for the sheer amount of children - did I mention that Alameda has been named one of the 100 best cities for kids? - Sarah was afraid she would accidently kick one.


They left to go warm up over margaritas. We stayed and had a daddy-shoulder dance.

Baby's First Thanksgiving



Thomas got comfortable with solid food just in time for Thanksgiving. Sweet potatoes are old news so Auntie Sam made him some peas.


It was a day of fun with food. His favorite toy that day was a red potato.

Bath Time Is the Best Time


I mean, REALLY.
