Above – Today’s featured image is Sparty’s (well, not so) new haircut. He got it a couple weeks ago but I’m so far behind in posting photos I’m just getting to it. Here he looks like a sweet, innocent little boy. Don’t let the haircut fool you … 🙂

A couple weeks ago I attended a workshop in LA for my most senior teacher Manouso Manos on the day of his birthday. This vegan chocolate cake was not only huge, but absolutely divine. I picked out and ate a piece with lots of frosting and filling to hype me up for my long drive back to San Diego. YUM.

Below, Kando and Alo doing artwork.

Alo having a nice hot cup of cocoa on a cold day. Notice the picture on the mug – It’s a photo I took of him at Presidio Park when he was only days old. On that day I brought my good camera and took a lot of family photos I’m sure he’ll be interested in seeing when he gets older.

Photos Robb sent me that he took at the Train Museum (I think in Sacramento).

Time out for a snack while on their field trip.

Meanwhile, back in OB, Sparty helps Amma carry dog poop down to the trash can. He jumped on the task when I asked him if he wanted to carry the poop. Doesn’t every boy want to carry dog poop in a bag with a smile on his face?

Shopping with Amma and Pappa…

Station 22’s engine outside Von’s again. We see this engine here a lot.

Back at the house, Sparty has a lunch of chicken noodle soup and avocado. This boy eats a LOT of food.

After gymnastics and before jiu jitsu Maya spent some quiet time with Pappa while Sparty was taking a nap. She was one tired girl.

Blogged on Amma’s iPhone and iMac with LOVE!
