Performance Art

This is what happens when you turn your back to do dishes and leave your 20 month old with not enough to do - they make art - on the floor with found materials!

Hanging out with Daddy some more!

Transitions!

I got laid off on April 2. Coco got to spend most of April going to daycare as usual, Monday's at Emma's and Tuesday through Friday's at Heather's. It took 40 phone calls, more than a dozen site visits, and two prior daycare tryouts (Coco got kicked out of the first two - see February 2008 posts) before we found Heather's in Novato! As soon as we walked in Coco was a happy little baby, and she left a happy toddler, though she misses Heather and Emma and all her little friends there. She also misses the extra hugs she got from Trenton, Kimberley and Brian - We were SO lucky to have found Heather and have Coco spend nearly everyday of her first two years with her.

First Photo Shoot with Baby Gap!

Coco had her first gig through Ford - Baby Gap website shoot. She waited patiently, got hair and 'make-up' and waited some more, then went on set with the crew. Her favorite part was stopping at Starbucks afterwards to hang out.

Going to the Aquarium store on a hot day!

Mom got laid off so we get to do all sorts of cool things theses days. We had a heat wave and Mom thought going to see fish at the aquarium store was a great idea - very cool fish, but warm and sweaty!

Easter with the Fortes'

Coco had two Easter celebrations and egg hunts this year. She caught on very fast to the whole egg hunt adventure. She did not quite get the pinata thing, or the run through the ribbon to get your basket thing. And she REALLY wanted to know what was up with the pin the tail on a bunny that was BIGGER than her! She really loved seeing all her cousins; especially the 'Melisha's' and Juliette, who is showing her the ropes with all those boy cousins!

Fun on a Hill.
