Michael's First Day of School

Last Tuesday, Sept 13th, was Michael's first day of preschool at Meadowlark Children's Center in Alamo, CA. He was so excited! He has been taking Gracyn there with me for the last 2 years and now it is finally his turn! He cried the first day I picked him up because he didn't want to leave! Below are some photos of the first day. Michael already has a few friends whose older siblings went to school with Gracyn. It is going to be a great year for this little guy!

A Successful Day at Sea!

Just this past weekend Dave had an amazing day at sea with a couple fishing buddies! We left the house at 5am to meet his friends in Half Moon Bay, CA to head out to the very rough seas in search of Albacore Tuna. 35 fish later, 3 very tired men headed back to shore. The caught a total of 35 Albacore Tuna ranging from 15-35 lbs. Pictured below are just 12 of them lined up! There were times during the day that they were fighting 5 fish at once. Dave brought home his third share of the fish which was actually a little more than the fillets you see in the sink. Sunday night we had an amazing dinner of seared tuna tataki and fresh toro nigiri. Yum! I guess there are a few perks to being married to a man who LOVES to fish!


Lucy just turned 7 months!

Lucy turned 7 months last week and boy has she been a busy little girl. She started army crawling at the beginning of the months and she has become really good at it. She is now pushing up to her hands and knees too. So, it is only a matter of weeks before she is really on the move! She also got her first tooth about 2 weeks ago. Lucy is now eating solids. She likes peas, and sweet potatoes. Apples and avocado are definitely not favorites to this little one! She is such a happy little girl and still just goes with the flow. Since we are usually on the go all morning she naps in the car here and there and then takes a huge 3+hour nap in the afternoon. Lucy has also become a pinky sucker over the last month or so. It is so darn cute but I'm beginning to wonder how cute this will be 2 years from now when I can't get her to stop! Lucy squeals with excitement when she sees Gracyn and Michael. Enjoy the pictures below. Isn't she just so darn cute. I just love that little face!
