Santa Barbara Triathalon Weekend

We spent last weekend with our good friends, Kevin  & Leslie and their 2 munchkins, Login & Madison.   Jeff did the full SB Tri on Saturday, while Leslie did her first ever sprint tri (the short version)that took place on Sunday.  

They both did great and Jeff made a PR time for himself.  I spent Saturday at their house with Liam trying to get him comfortable with sleeping in his new environment.  He had a rough first night, though he did have a great time with Madison and Logan. 

    I didn't make it to Jeff's tri, but I did make it to Leslies.  Liam was a trooper and slept a short nap in his stroller and waited until our drive home to take a 2 hour nap.  It was fun but went by way too fast.   But never too fast that we couldn't stop to smell the roses.

Thanks to Leslie and Kevin for always welcoming us and to Madison for always allowing us to crash in your room and for being such a great baby sitter.  You guys are the best.    

Bathtime with Daddy

My little angel is too cute at bath time.  He LOVES water...he loves to drink it, bathe in it and swim in it, so he's always particularly joyful during this special time with daddy, as daddy always has bath duty...Dad's choice:).  Yes, I also have the best hubby on the planet too!!  I am one lucky lady:)

Giro Giro Tondo

Our Italian friend Elizabeta taught Jeff the Italian version of Ring Around the Rosey.    Liam LOVES it!!   Took this fun pic tonight.     

My little two fisted drinker??

Okay.  I know.  I'm the worst mom in the world for not having blogged in such a long time, so I am finally going to alleviate some guilt by posting some adorable photos I recently took of my little angel.  Yes.  He is still a little angel.  I am hoping that he will pass the terrible 2 phase altogether, but we will joyfully accept whatever comes our way.  I am a actually a bit worried that he may pass up the walking phase. He's almost 15 months and still not walking on his own, but I think we are making some progress.  Hopefully by the end of the month?  (or year???)  Liam is truly our greatest blessing  and is officially the sweetest, cutest and funniest baby on the planet!!  (No mom bias here;)     He made me laugh today when he decided one sippy cup was not enough.
