Scooter and Seafood

May 3, 2014 No Comments

In the afternoon, Janie rode her scooter to Hog Island Oyster Co.

It took a really long time for us to get there at her pace and luckily she was willing to take a break after about 20 minutes of scooting.

It was a beautiful day to be outside.

Here’s Janie waiting to be seated.

She tried all kinds of seafood. She had some smoked sturgeon from Mommy’s oyster fork.

She also tried baby octopus for the first time.

She loved the seafood stew (of course!) because it was a “SOUP!”

Ah…what a tasty dinner. Time to burn it all off with a scooter ride home!

We took our usual morning walk to the Farmer’s Market today. Janie wanted to walk some of it so we came up with a game called “hold the orange”. She holds onto the orange ring at the end of the links and gets to walk next to the stroller while Mommy pushes. Worked for a good part of the walk.

Janie ate all of Mommy’s leftover pickled onions and capers.

She also got a free tulip from a nice lady.

She requested soup for breakfast this morning, so she had yogurt. Lovely.

Ah…it’s Friday again. Janie had fun playing with the baby strollers this morning.

In the evening, she had an early dinner with Mommy next door.

We even made it for the free chips and salsa! Win!

warm outside

May 1, 2014 No Comments

We had a very warm day in SF today so we had dinner outside. Janie rode her tricycle to the restaurant this evening.

For dinner, she had clam chowder. Check out the mess!

While Mommy and Daddy finished dinner, she practiced her animal sounds and tried to name all the letters she could.

She also entertained herself with a bag of bracelets, necklaces, and rings. It’s part of Mommy’s old work stash of toys.

Fancy.

Day with Mommy

April 30, 2014 No Comments

Mommy had an extra day off today and Janie’s first activity of the day was to go back to the doctor for her immunizations.

She got to play in the waiting room a bit.

She cried out just a little bit when she got her shot but it didn’t last long.

It also helped that she got a cool bandaid “sticker” on her leg after.

After the doctor’s office, we stopped for lunch and grocery shopping. Janie loved eating her chicken from a cup.

It was a hot day outside so Janie got her first bubble bath. She was scared of them at first because she couldn’t see the water anymore but got over it pretty quickly when she realized she could scoop it like sand.

heading home

April 29, 2014 No Comments

On the shuttle, Janie was too tired to look out the window.

In fact, she fell asleep sitting up…just like her mommy tends to do.

At the airport, we had some lunch. Janie got more noodles and some veggies too!

Keenan is riding on the same plane again. Fun!

Janie did a great job on the flight home. Having her own seat really helped.

Unfortunately, she had a diaper malfunction and a little tummy trouble mid-way through the flight so we had to change her clothes. Luckily, she was fine for the last couple hours and even took a nice long nap too.

last morning

April 29, 2014 No Comments

We’re going home today but we had a couple hours before our pick-up time. For breakfast, we picked up a bowl of udon at Lawson Station and ate next to Mr. Ocean.

Janie just loves noodles AND soup. What a perfect meal for her.

Before heading out to the shuttle waiting area, Janie got one last splash in the fountain. We’re gonna miss this fun place.

We’re all packed up and ready to go!

This kid really enjoyed going barefoot everywhere. Just minutes after putting on her sandals, they came right back off.

Until next time, Mr. Ocean and Hawaii! We’ll see you again soon!!

Italian Dinner

April 28, 2014 No Comments

For dinner, we went to an Italian restaurant with Andrew and Auntie Holly.

They shared a kids spaghetti and meatballs dish and it was like a scene out of Lady and the Tramp. I loved watching their different styles of eating noodles. Andrew went straight for a big forkful of noodles and Janie slurped them one at a time.
