Grabby

Here are our two lovely girls ready to enjoy a beautiful summer day.

As you can see Lola is getting bigger and stronger. She does quite well on her belly and can push up her whole chest. She continues to love to stand, but her new trick is that she is really starting to grab at things. She see something, tries to grab at it and of course pulls it toward her mouth.

Since we got out the high chair Nina of course wants to use it all the time, but she did let Lola pose for a few pictures it in. Lola isn't really ready for it anyway. She sits there for a few minutes, but then starts to slump over. We did experiment with giving her a chunk of banana last night. At first she was completely confused, but then she start to suck furiously. Hilarious.

Nina has been enjoying her new classroom, BKP2 (Big Kids Place). This room goes all the way til kindergarden so it has lot of new challenges for her. She has jumped right into the fray of things, but has struggled with a few adjustments (no paci at naptime, no changing her clothes every 5 seconds). As you can see from the big scrape on her nose, she has been throughly exploring the new play yard. Of course no amount of bumps, bruises and scrapes will ever damage her inner princess.

Here a couple shots from my birthday which we spent up in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. Always something interest to explore there. Strolling along, we came across an inline skating competition. Amazing!

Happy Birthday to me!
