Father's Day

For Father's Day, Dad wanted to spend most of the day in the garden. Mom let me go out a couple times and help, but only if I wore a hat. At the end of the day, Dad let us take him out to Russian River Brewery for pizza and beer tasting. I was so tired that I fell asleep before the pizza even came. I think Dad had a good day though.

Grandpa Paul's Birthday

On June 19th, Aunt Sheila, Mom, Dad, 4 dogs, and I packed up in the car and headed to Healdsburg for Grandpa Paul's birthday. Grandma Kathy made a wonderful dinner and I got a chance to see Uncle Kevin who was back from Honduras. Grandpa learned my favorite hold (pictured above) and Sheila was busy capturing my good looks on her camera. Overall, it was a great night.

Here are many of the funny sounds I make...

2nd Giants Game

Giants v. A's
June 13, 2009

I was a little more of a vet at this Giant's game. The lights were still enchanting, but at least I was able to eat a little better this time. There were also some loud fans around us, but I just stared at them with big eyes. It was fun to get passed around and spend some time with Aunt Mari, Aunt April, Casey and Ronnie.

Mommy's turn...

Hi Everyone! I just wanted to take a minute to update you on how our little guy is doing. Tanyon is now 3 months old. He is about 25 inches long. We haven't weighed him in awhile, but he continues to be long and lean...just like his papa. He is starting to be really verbal, often stringing many sounds together in a row. It is as if he wants to talk to you. He will look directly at you and produce great sounds and facial expressions. I will often hear Paul and Tanyon cooing from the other room for several minutes at a time. It is so adorable!

Tanyon is a VERY happy baby. He is quick to flash you a huge smile and gets excited when you interact with him (His favorite is being lifted above your head airplane style). Even when he is upset, he rarely cries. I am happy to say he is even sleeping through the night lately. It has been so idyllic that Paul and I are sure we are going to pay for it later, but for now we are enjoying every minute.

Great Grandma Marilyn's Birthday

Last Friday, mom and I went to Ragle Ranch Park to celebrate Grandma Marilyn's birthday. We were both feeling a little sick, so I was a little cranky at first. But, spending time with family made us all feel better. I got bundled in a blanket and Grandma held me close for comfort. Soon, I was sleeping soundly. Mom thought it would be fun to snap some pics of me dozing, so I did indugle here with a little smile...
