It started when we picked Maya up for music class. Sparty was playing in his modern-day play-go-round (I wish these were around when I had babies!). He really likes it. Evan and Jill bought this as a baby shower gift for Jen before Maya was born.
Then at music class, the group sitting (almost) quietly for a story.
Coming full circle, here’s Sparty again. Num num num.
Today – class this morning and Alo this afternoon!

Ron & Jen took the kids to the beach.

Alo spent the night last night. The little bugger slept all night & woke up about 7:30, talking, happy and with poop in his diaper. It doesn’t get any better than that!! He had a good breakfast of cream of wheat with a little brown sugar and whole milk, fruit & juice, and now he’s exploring the world of light switches in Pappa’s living room, that is after he explored all the cupboards in the kitchen while we cleaned the kitchen.
Here are some miscellaneous photos of his birthday party.
How many people does it take to push Sparty?

Above, a photo Jen sent of the brother & sister hanging out together. Sparty’s hair doesn’t look red this day. In fact, it looks kinda blonde! What will tomorrow bring??? 🙂
Yesterday, Alo & Ernie:

It’s been a busy couple of days, and this is all I have time for today. I’ll do my best to get more birthday party photos up for tomorrow.
It’s going to be HOT today. It’s 8:45am & we already have the air conditioning on at the coast. Students to arrive any minute.
Have a COOL day!

We had Maya and Sparty yesterday from 5pm until a little after 11pm. Robb, Akuch and Alo stopped by for about a half hour, just at the right time – Sparty cried almost the entire time they were here, but he still managed a photo with Auntie Akuch …
There were some “happy times” tho …
This video’s pretty cute. Maya has learned that it’s fun to have her picture taken …

Maya was sound asleep in the Pack’n Play when the Sea World fireworks went off and woke her up. From that point on she slept on my lap. This morning Maya Facetime’d me while I was out on my walk & told me how the fireworks scared her.
I woke up this morning absolutely beat (slept in till 7:30!), every bone & muscle in my body aching, every bit of it worth it.
Today – Alo’s birthday party!! I can’t believe he’s a year old already.

The day started with breakfast selfies.
Then some exploration at Liberty Station before music class.
Playing with tambourines at Music Class.
… and to finish the day off with a nap on Amma’s lap at Nati’s. Pure sweetness!
Today – some yoga this morning, a massage & ALO!

I love the photo above Robb sent of Akuch & Alo playing in the water at Waterfront Park downtown.
Yesterday Alo goes for his first swim. He really enjoyed splashing around on the step while Robb selected his football team.
Then Maya gives Alo a cooking lesson …

Every Thursday, Maya comes over to do Pappa’s laundry.
When she’s done with that and cleaning the kitchen, she picks up dog poop and washes the cars …
Here’s Maya feeding Alo (& then herself!) a small piece of her peppermint patty at Nati’s yesterday.
