A Month of Bithdays!















































































In March we celebrated a lot of Birthdays. Brady turned 15, Maddie turned 4, Beach turned 3, Brendan turned 7 months and Poppy turned ?(I am not allowed to disclose). We had many celebrations and rounded them out with a really fun family dinner at Netties Crab Shack in San Francisco. We had a great time and Brendan was partying the whole time. Brendan loves to sit up and play it is amazing to watch him sit there like a big boy and play with his toys. He is trying very hard to crawl and is getting really close. One of his favorite times of the day is bath time he is going to be a water boy for sure. It is just more and more amazing. I can't wait until I get to spend the whole week with him during my Easter break and only 10 more school weeks until I am off for the whole summer. We miss you all.

Happy Saint Patricks Day














































Brendan spent an awesome weekend with his Nanny and Poppy, while Mike and I went to Tucson and relived the college days for the weekend. We had a great weekend but missed Brendan a ton. Brendan has started wearing a hat and loves to keep it on. He looks even more like Mike when he wears it. Our little Irishman had a great Saint Patricks day. His Aunt Cate, Aunt Josie, Uncle Justin and Uncle Brian came over for some delicious corned beef and cabbage and some beers. Brendan was trying to get my beer mug all night, he really is an Irishman at heart.

Brendan goes to the snow!














































Last weekend we took a last minute trip to Tahoe. We went with the Cali family and had an awesome time. We stayed at Northstar. Brendan had a great time seeing the snow, playing with his cousins and get spoiled by his aunts and Nanny and Poppy. Mike and I got to ski and had an awesome time. We hope to get to go up again before ski season is over.

Brendan is 6 months old!!!














































We can't believe Brendan is over 6 months old. It is so amazing it has been half of a year since he was born. He is passing things from hand to hand, making all sorts of new noises, trying to crawl which looks alot like swimming and loves flipping over and sleeping on his belly. Today he learned to sit all by himself. He spent the last week with his Grandpa and they had a great time. Brendan really loved blowing bubbles at him and laughing a lot. We spent time in the city and had a fun day in Point Reyes. Brendan has decided he really likes to cuddle with Mike and I at 5 A.M. it is so funny to roll over and see his cute face cuddled up against us. ( we are such suckers he is already playing us) Brendan and I also started music class on Tuesdays which he thinks is so fun. He is one of the youngest but loves the music and people watching. It is so amazing how fast time goes and how they change so much. Love to all.

Brendans first Valentines Day!





































We had a great Va;entines weekend in Sausalito. It was so great to spend the whole weekend at home. The day began with watching the Cats beat UCLA as you can see feom the pics Mike and Brendan were in full gear. Then we spent the day together and the three of us went to an early sushi dinner that Brendan slept through the whole thing. It was great. It was so much fun having my little Valentine to share our day with, he looks so big in his fancy button down. Notice in the fist pic how he is constantly flipping over. He is turning into a wild man. Love to all.

Brendan is 5 1/2 months
























































Brendan is getting so big and more and more active every day. He loves to play and roll and blow lots of bubbles, especially when he is eating. He is really enjoying all the new tastes of food. He thinks blowing it back at me is a really fun game. We have been so busy and Brendan has been on the move with us. We have spent lots of time down in Woodside while Mike has been working on the weekends and Brendan is so excited his Poppy is retiring and he will get to spend time with him all the time. Nanny and Poppy and Brendan are going to have so much fun together. Brendan also can't wait for his Grandpa to come out soon and take care of him for a week while Mike and I are at work. I am sure they are going to have so much fun and Scoobie will get so good park runs as well. Brendan is busy mastering rolling over in both directions and working on sitting up and even thinking about the starting of crawling. It really does go so quickly. We are having such an amazing time watching him discover the world. Hope you are all well.
