Busy Is No Excuse

OK, just cause Ava started a new school, has been cast as the lead in Aladdin in a local kids theater group, sings in Eco-Heroes that tours around So-Cal, and Danny has new needs like any ferocious 17 month old, being busy is no excuse for not piublishing... I apologize to all grandparents and lookie-loos. Take a gander at what's going on:

Aloha all over again

A collection of photos from our summer adventure in Hawaii!

We built a pretty large mound of sand and besides an awesome perch for Danny, we built a tiki-idol to worship the Gods of health, fitness, and direct marketing!

I call this last photo "Never Turn Your Back On Surf School"

And then there was June

June saw the Spring finale at Ava's school and a visit from Grandpop and Uncle David, and Danny is a full-on walker.

1st Birthday

A nice little gathering of his swimming buddies celebrated Danny's first birthday. We dressed him in an official Unique Industries bib and fed him a healthy banana muffin.

































But Danny's favorite gift... empty water bottle.

More Birthday Bashing and Smashing!

Last week we celebrated Ava's birthday with the cake-in-the-face-smash, which gave Danny some concern. Danny's birthday to follow!

Best Friends

There are a lot of best friends around the house lately: Danny and Mommy, Danny and Peanut, Danny and Picasso, Danny and the pool, Ava and Emma, Ava and the American Girl Dolls, Danny and the washer.
