Furthermore...






Our friends Bob and Chad hosted a wine tasting party for their Furthermore line of Pinot Noir on Sunday. I had fun playing with umbrellas, hanging out with mom and dad, and of course, helping Dad DJ! Check it out!

Horses!


I have loved horses since before I was even a year old. It has been a couple of months since we went to visit, but I asked a couple of times over the last few days so we went after school yesterday. We saw a rabbit, a couple of deer, a friendly cat and many horses out at the Miwok Stables in Tennessee Valley. I have grown quite fearless of the horses. Here I am feeding one "all by myself, Mommy!"

ABCs, baby!



I can go all the way through now, but Mom took this right after she heard me do it for the first time - "Now I know my ABCs, next time won't you sing with me?!" and everything. I got curious though... I had to see the video before finishing!

Stinson Beach




I love the beach. We headed out there on Sunday morning, before the crowds, and it was a blast. I rolled around in the sand and watched Dad fly a new kite. Way fun (but I don't really like the curvy road on the way to and from...)

Dad's Birthday Party



We had a surprise party for Dad last weekend. Lots if fun! Here we are with the cake and playing with Matt (who helped me climb the redwood on our doorstep - finally).

Potluck with the ladies...



These are great opportunities to flirt. Thanks, Charley and Bob for hosting such fun events for all of our families to get together. You can see from the pictures that I am a bit of a ham. I was enjoying dress up until I decided that getting naked would get me more attention!! (it sure did!)

My First Day of School!



Last Monday was my first day at preschool. Mom and Dad have been pretty excited about it... and I have to say that I was pretty happy myself. I have been talking about it for weeks.

Mom and / or Dad walk me there every day. (Mom says it is the cutest thing she has ever done...) I have my dinosaur lunchbox that Meme gave me... my nap bag and a snack. We draw and paint, have circle time, spend a lot of time outdoors, read books, play in the little kitchen, build things with blocks... all around, it is a lot of fun. The other kids are neat too.

Dim Sum!





Well, let's just say that I am getting pretty good at this dim sum thing. For starters, I have had more dim sum adventures than my mom did before she became a mom... I had my first experience in a high chair at a dim sum restaurant with Papa Reed in 2007, and I have come a long way since then.

We went to to a new place a couple of weeks ago and it was great! I got to sit in the big chairs and watch the airplanes come and go from my window seat. I tried a few new things too... like a baby octopus and a chicken foot. Not so sure about that one, but my family sure knows that I am an adventurous eater now!
