And a First … Ron taking a shower in the backyard.

I don’t know how he’s done it, but he’s built an office in the garage (complete with outside shower) and redid all three bedrooms at their house while, I think, still working the real job. A lot of hard work paying off with a beautiful job well done.

For those of you who celebrate it, Happy Easter! I’m celebrating by attending an afternoon philosophy discussion, then coming home for some homemade vegetarian lasagne I plan on making this morning.

Friday is Grandkid day

Wednesday and Thursday nights, Jen & Maya spent the night due to remodel fumes at their house. Maya enjoyed her Rice Krispies in the morning.

Above, Alo chews on his foot while out on our walk. He will indeed make a good yogi! Would you like some peanut butter with that toe jam???

Having fun at OB park.

Missed a day yesterday

Had a busy day teaching 2 classes in La Mesa yesterday. Today will also be busy. A little time with Maya this morning, a late morning massage, then Alo this afternoon.

Above, Maya in the car seat with the bear she picked out of the Beanie Baby bag on our way for coffee (hot/warm chocolate & banana)!

Birdhouse dba Beehouse

This is the birdbeehouse that got carted away yesterday, and will most likely never return. My post was wrong yesterday. It wasn’t a birdhouse in the tree. It’s one that stands on a post. This picture was taken by Scott on his side of the fence. I asked him to send it to me so I knew exactly which birdhouse he was talking about. When I called Cindy, she told me another neighbor had come over the same night Scott called me and told her about the bees. Your beloved birdhouse is gone forever …

Now, on to things that really matter …

Alo yesterday morning with his mommy at the park.

Airplane!

And then again in the afternoon with his daddy & the OBYoga water bottle. I think this one will make it to my website.

20140409-073825.jpg
I can’t leave Maya out. Here’s a picture I took of her a couple weeks ago after she got out of the pool at her swim class.

Alo & Amma Time

I took yesterday afternoon off to spend a few hours with Alo. After he took a short nap, we played in the BIG playpen.

20140408-073016.jpg
He sits up so strongly by himself now.

Then we went outside to get some fresh air and watch airplanes go by, where we took some selfies…

He liked that a lot, except for the part when I took my phone away…

Messages to Mom:

According to your favorite neighbor, Scott, there’s a bee hive/swarm in a bird house in the tree just on your side of the property. He said he has a bee guy and will take care of it and asked for permission. I talked to Bruce and we decided to tell him to go ahead with it. I’ll let Cindi know.

**UPDATE** Just got this all taken care of. Cindi has been informed. Scott arranged to have the bee guy there today at 6:45pm. The only problem with this is that most likely you will never see that particular bird house again. It will need to be removed from the property and dissected (dismantled) to remove all the “bee stuff” inside. But the good news is that some innocent person walking by and stopping to admire your beautiful yard won’t be swarmed to death.

Also, Maria said she won’t be able to clean your house just before you return. To stay on schedule, she will be there the Tuesday following your return, which I think is only a couple days later.
