Headed Home

We were up super early today to get to the airport. We had a perfectly Swedish guy, Gustav, as our driver. He actually had the car seat all hooked up and ready when he arrived and was just all around quintessentially Swedish.

Our flight from Gothenburg to Copenhagen was quite easy, and we were delightfully surprised to find out that the SAS lounge had a whole kids play room! I think Adeline was in heaven! (And me too! A huge room filled with toys with a self serve snack buffet and wine on tap right outside?! Perfection!) Will had fun playing around with portrait mode and I'm putting all the pictures right here. Sorry, not sorry.





















Getting onto our next flight from Copenhagen to SFO was pretty easy and the first part of the flight wasn't so bad, but our little keiki slept for a mere forty-five minutes of an eleven hour flight. I just don't even have words any more. Thanks to my amazing husband for bouncing her up and down the aisles for what must have been hours and hours.


At long last, we made it. We got on the BART, got home, unpacked the essentials, and got this little girl and ourselves to bed.


These types of travel days are pretty much the worst thing ever, but the memories we will now have makes it all OK. But, wait a minute, where is that vacation that we need after this vacation?! Time to recover!!

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...

Happy Birthday Will!

Image
No, today isn't Will's actual birthday, it's June 10th, but he is going to be in Hawai`i for a work trip, so we celebrated a little bit early today and made it into his birthday! Continuing with the theme of exploring new places with this beautiful weather, I drove Will out to Stinson Beach and Bolinas for the day. It's about an hour away, and again, thanks to being up early with Adeline, we pulled in and got a great parking spot right before the rush. It was such a gorgeous (but very windy, as in curvy, not strong wind) road! We started our day with brunch on the patio at Breaker's Cafe. We walked around the "town," all one block of it, and saw that there was live music at the other restaurant across the street, Sand Dollar Restaurant. (Yep, two restaurants!) We grabbed a seat and a drink and soaked up the beautiful weather. Adeline loved the music! And she even got a super cute onesie from one of the waitstaff! So cute she's getting free things ...

Play Time!

Our friends Nate and Emily gifted us this wonderful play gym that Adeline just loves! Today was her first day playing on it and she had such a good time holding on to and playing with the animals, watching the mobile on top and listening to the music, and even got in a little tummy time! Here's a video for you to click on:
