First Day of "School"

Leana and I are continuing in the program offered by the local community college. Last year we were in the infant class and now we have moved on to the toddler class. It involves a lot of play time for the kids, discussion time for parents, and an organized snack and music time. Leana had a blast and is sleeping it off now.

Goofball in the Morning

Leana is really into "feeding herself" even if it's make believe, so give her a spoon and any bowl looking object and she might play with it for an hour or more. And act really crazy while she's at it.

Santa Barbara Trip, Part 2: Wedding Fun

We had a great time at the wedding in Santa Barbara. It was up in the mountains on a big piece of property...plenty of room to set up a pack n play and have Leana sleep under the stars so that Mom and Dad could have fun and hang out at the wedding until midnight. Midnight! Too bad Leana woke up even earlier than usual the next day...

She loved the dance floor but that was hard to capture on video...

Santa Barbara Trip, Part 1: Beach Day

Leana LOVED the beach: the sand, the water, the chocolate chip cookies melting in the sun...

More Fun with Mio

I don't think Mio thinks this is as much fun as Leana does.
