Milestones
While we were in Minnesota we hit some major Young family milestones. Lake drank her first bottle (after weeks of frustration and crying) and Babers went poops on the potty (after months of frustration and crying). This is the prize Adam picked put when Auntie took him to the toy store (Kohl's - we had a 30% off coupon). It's a tow truck "just like Terrys".
Halloween 2013 Part 2
During the ghost costume debacle, Auntie suggested I draw on a skeleton on all of Adams white ghost clothes. Great idea in theory but I knew I didn't have the skills to pull that off. But then he got kind of excited to be a skeleton. A nice skeleton, not a scary one. So I search the stores. No toddler skeletons. No big deal, I can just get some of those toddler pajamas that every store carries with the skeleton bones on them. What I did not realize is that every store sells out of them. Every store. So I start calling and calling ( this is Oct 30th by now) and finally find a pair at a random Carter's in LA. One pair left, in his size. So I race over after bed time before they close (with only two minutes to spare after first going to the wrong store). The next morning I grab some costume make up and bam! He's the cutest skeleton there ever was!
We went trick or treating with the Sommers in their neighborhood which was straight out of the movies. Adorably decorated houses, perfect weather, and a flash mob of neighborhood kids doing Thriller. Best Ever.
Mornings
Lately Adam and Lake both wake up around 7. Adam comes in bed to snuggle and read books before watching tv, and Lake comes in to nurse and hang out. It's the best time of day.
Bacara
A few weeks ago we took a little mini vacation with Lake to Bacara for a wedding. We went wine tasting, had a Hitching Post dinner, relaxed at a beautiful pool, went to amazing breakfast in Santa Barbara and a gorgeous wedding. It was a wonderful weekend. Mimi and Grandad flew out to spend the weekend with Babers, which was so incredibly kind and generous. They had their own weekend of fun too.
