SF Staycation

We didn't have anything going on for the long weekend so Will had a great idea to use his hotel club rewards night for a fancy night out in San Fransisco! Adeline spent the morning playing in her kitchen and we loaded up the car while she napped. We headed to The City after she woke up. It was fabulous because the drive that could have taken us well over an hour with traffic only took 35 minutes! Gotta love no traffic on holiday weekends!

We got all checked in to our hotel - The InterContinental Mark Hopkins SF in Nob Hill.

Adeline was feeling clingy to Papa. So sweet!
After we settled in to our room we visited Huntington Park just two blocks away. Adeline loved it!


Finally it was dinner time! We went to Gusto Pinsa Romana a couple of blocks away for some delicious pizza. Adeline wasn't super in to it but ate a little bit and let Will and I eat a little at the same time, too. She was definitely a little antsy though!


We walked back to the hotel and got Adeline tucked in to bed. After she was fully settled I snuck out to join Will at the Top of the Mark, the restaurant on the top floor with an absolutely stunning view of the city. (We had Adeline on speaker for a baby monitor. She was sound asleep the entire night!) I enjoyed some of the best cheesecake I'd had in a long time and we sipped some nice drinks as we watched the sun go down over the Golden Gate. It was a lovely date night!

Happy Halloween!

Image
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:
