Rocking Horse

Mom went a little crazy at the Consignment Sale for the Parents of Multiples club this weekend and bought the kids a rocking horse.  They love the one’s at their pediatrician's office so we thought a rocking horse would be a big hit at our home – and it was!  They actually have found a way to share it and ride at the same time.  They both stand on either side and hold onto the handles and rock the horse together.  What good sharers!  : )

Reading with Daddy

Nonnie brought over a bunch of Megan’s childhood books including Richard Scarry’s Great Big Schoolhouse.  It has quickly become Siena’s favorite because there are tons of kitties on each page.  Here are a few pictures of Jack & Siena enjoying this book with Daddy.  Three very cute faces to love on a very happy Mother’s Day!

Workday Run

We headed out to Danville today to hang with the Workday crew.  Workday sponsored a run and family picnic in Danville so we took the twins out so they could meet and play with all the other Work-babies.  They loved playing on the train with Jenny and her mom.

Little Baristas

We have a new weekend tradition in our home.  While Kevin makes coffee the twins stand on chairs “helping” Daddy with the coffee grinder and maker.  It’s pretty cute.  They love the loud sound of the grinder.  They squeal with excitement while Kevin grinds the bean.  Then Jack helps push all the buttons on the coffee maker to get it going.  It’s pretty cute to watch them as they anticipate the coffee brewing into the pot.  Their little legs dance and feet stomp because they are so excited to see it drip down while shouting “wa-wa, wa-wa!”

We will never make coffee again without thinking of our little baristas ! : )

P.S. – How cute is Siena is her new mini CAL dress. ; )

Baker Beach

With all the continued beautiful weather we decided to take the kids to the beach today.  We explored Baker Beach for the first time with Jack & Siena.  With sands toys in hand we set-up on Baker Beach and enjoyed the warm weather while playing in the sand and water.  The kids loved it and if they had their way would play in the sand and water for hours. 

A special thank you for Nana for the adorable summer outfits that both Jack & Siena are sporting in the pictures below. 

Before we headed to the beach we were playing at home.  We asked the twins to hold hands and they immediately grab each other’s hands.  So cute!  We had to catch that on film! : )

Another Day at Golden Gate Park

We took advantage of the gorgeous weather this weekend and went to play at Golden Gate Park.  We couldn’t pass up the carrousel!  The twins are getting so big that they basically climb and walk on the play structures, go down the slides and get right back up all on their own.  When did they get so big and fearless?

1st Trip to Cal Berkeley

The twins lives are now complete.  They have been to Berkeley and even better have stormed the field of Memorial Stadium. : )  Ok, ok, maybe their lives are not complete but much fuller now that they have been to Berkeley.

We joined Molly, Grossman and Titash today for Cal Day.  This is the weekend where accepted students for the upcoming school year can come and experience the school.  They have a variety of sports being played (football, baseball, etc.), open lectures, music, food, social and academic clubs, etc. 

We took Jack & Siena to Memorial Stadium and watched the end of the football scrimmage.  Then the four of us stormed the field and basically followed Jack around.  He was in heaven running back and forth on the field.  He was crying because he didn’t want to leave. 

Then we had a nice picnic with Molly, Grossman and Titash on the Glade.  We had fun again, running after Jack as he took full advantage of the large grass area.

We even stopped by the Cal Store to pick up a few new Cal outfits for the twins and Dad. 

But, the best part of the day was to see Kevin with his family at one of the most important and special places of his life.  It was exciting to watch him enjoy Cal in a different way and through two different sets of eyes.  Love you Kevbo!

GO BEARS!
