Great Weekend at Genoa
Spent a great weekend with our friends, Leo & Carlotta Montejo & their boys Leo & Adriano, at their beautiful home in Nevada.
Leo & Jeff got the glider out of its winter storage AND went flying!
Carlotta,the kids & I planted the vegatable garden.
The kids all had a terrific time - Livvy loved playing with the big boys and they were so good with her!
I hope that I have some more pictures to share on the camera, but for now here are a few from my phone.

Walk on The Beach
Foggy, but surprisingly warm in Alameda today.
Liv's been suffering from another runny nose this past week (or more!) So, in deference to the other mommies & babies we're opting out of the social gatherings... playground, sing-along, & story-time, etc. Which means she's either climbing the walls at home, or we're romping around on the beach - Today, it's the beach.
She's a strong little walker these days! She's doing really well keeping her balance in the soft sand (which is tricky!) and she hiked a good long distance today. It's fun to watch her! And to see her captivated by the water and want so badly to charge into it, but then decide or remember that she'd better not... she puts up her little hand and shakes her head and says "nooooooo..." -- it's really cute. (b/c last week, Daddy let her wander in, and she got all wet & had to leave the beach & go back inside to get warm dry clothes. Seems like she's learned that lesson (for now!!).)
Again, sorry for the lousy cell phone images... but well, it's better than nothing & better than lugging around the Nikon in certain situations.
