Sunday

We had a nice Sunday together!  We had fun visiting with Grammie in the late morning!  Then we were off for some swimming and some reading!  Yippie!  We love the weekends!

Happy Sunday!

Headed to the pool!

Getting our bracelets from Jessica!

Checking out the fountain!  

Showered and ready!

Cute beans!  The lifeguards in the background
were practicing different drills.  Oliver
asked a lot of really good questions!

Mommy got some chemical kisses!

Dancing toward the showers!


Library Time!

Choosing his movie for the week!

He loves Curious George!
He chose the full length movie!

Asking politely to use the computer.

He played games for an hour while Mommy
caught up on some reading!

On the way home we talked about why the Chicken
Farm in Elfin Forest has been all closed up for the past
few weeks.  They are starting to tear down the old
houses now.  Mommy found an article here. 742
homes will be built there!  That sure will change
our little "backcountry" drive. 
 (It makes Mommy kind of sad.)

We made a milk run tonight!  Oliver fell
asleep on the way back.  Sweet babe.

Happy last day of September!

Balboa Park

This morning we headed to Balboa Park in San Diego!  We had a really nice time together!  We discovered so many things that we need to go back and explore!  

Happy Saturday!  

We spy downtown!

He insisted on bringing that bag.
He carries it like a messenger bag or
how Mommy likes to carry her purse.
He has two snakes packed in that bag.

wanting to go to the theater!

Mommy let Oliver chose a finger puppet...

and we joined the Puppet Club!  So we will be back!

We thought the Smart cars were neat!

Oliver played for a long time!

Mommy went and sat on a bench...

Oliver made a lot of friends when he brought his
snake to the playground!
