A Day to Explore

Will actually had a day off from work today (he's been so busy getting ready for a big presentation at the end of the month). We hopped in the car and headed for Pt. Reyes. We were all set and ready to walk out to the lighthouse. There are about 300 steps to get out there! Last time we went out it was very foggy so we decided it wasn't worth the effort to go out. So today was the day!

Adeline did great in the car and got in a little nap. We stopped in Pt. Reyes Station for a nibble from the Bovine Bakery - blueberry and banana muffin and croissant - and to feed Adeline. We also got some cheese from the Cowgirl Creamery to go along with the picnic we packed. We had fun walking through the little town!

My loves are the sweetest!
Next we were on our way out to the lighthouse. After riding through the very windy roads we got there and it was closed! If I had done my research a little better I would have known that it was under construction for a restoration project. sigh. Maybe third time will be the charm?

We were driving back in to town and were planning on having our picnic at the tables near the Cowgirl Creamery, but as we made our way into town we saw a sign for the Pt. Reyes Winery, so of course we went! We were welcomed with a glass of bubbly and delicious blue cheese, followed by a tasty wine tasting, and we had our picnic at the table out back. It was a beautiful day!

A Tough Day

Today was a tough day for the little keiki. For whatever reason she just didn't want to nap in her crib, and instead needed to be rocked in the rocking chair. She wasn't hungry, wasn't sick, and doesn't even have a tooth coming through yet. I guess she just needed some Mama cuddles. Though I missed having my "break" to do things like shower, eat, ya know, no big deal, I reminded myself that someday in the not-so-distant future I'll be longing for these days of holding her in my arms while she sleeps. So, we enjoyed a very slow paced day around the house filled with snuggles. In between the rocking chair naps we did get in a little fun playtime though!

Happy Halloween!

Even though last year was technically Adeline's first Halloween, this year felt like the first true Halloween because we got to go out and enjoy the festivities! The Temescal Business District hosted a Trick-or-Treating event for the kids and had fun activities along the way like free books from the library, story time, a dance party at the yoga studio, costume contests, and more I'm sure but we only made it a few blocks! We had a great time and the businesses were so generous and kind to the kids. Our little ladybug! She would only wear the wings from her costume, but she held on to the wand and headband. There was a fun skirt, too but she didn't want anything to do with it. Oh well. People still thought she was cute! Getting some raisins. Still trying to understand the concept of Trick-or-Treating! Dance party at the yoga studio. Aunt Mary's Cafe made fresh baked "Witches Fingers." Adeline loved hers but we got stuck in the B
