Jubilee

Here are some cutie pies from Wyatt's school waiting to take a turn on the running trampoline at Acrosports. They are listening very carefully to the rules here, but they definitely did not follow them.

First Snow

Last weekend we headed up to Tahoe for the first big snow of the season. The boys loved sledding and, given that Wyatt was building jumps to go over and trying to stand up on the sled, I'd say he's ready for skiing! It ended up snowing close to three feet. Malcolm not featured in this photo because the snow was so deep he couldn't really stand or walk.

The Car Show

Every year, Papa and the boys head to the annual car show at Moscone Center. Today we took the N Judah train downtown and met up with Uncle Sean to look at cars, eat burgers and drink milkshakes.

Max

On Tues, Wed. and Thursdays for the past few months now Malcolm and Wyatt have had the pleasure of sharing their sitter Lisa with a little boy named Max. I wasn't quite sure how they'd welcome another little boy in to their space but so far it has been working out great - they love him! In fact, Wyatt has been saying at night that his favorite part of the day is hanging out with Max. And Malcolm is no longer so sad about his big brother going off to school in the morning, now that he has another little guy to play with.

Nemo

Grumpy and Jean gave Wyatt and Malcolm stuffed Nemo's after learning durning our Pawley's Island visit how much they like the little clown fish. Needless to say, they've been a huge hit. Malcolm is especially obsessed and insists on carrying his everywhere his parents will let him. Turns out their little buddy, Allistair, also has the same stuffed Nemo. One recent afternoon he brought his over to show off and it turned in to a giant Nemo party complete with an "Ocean" and all.

Halloween Party Part II

Land Shark



Wyatt's preschool, Jubilee Montessori School, had a little Halloween potluck this year to gather all the families together. The kids had a blast dressing up in their costumes. Malcolm, of course, thinks he goes to this school already and fits right in hanging out with Wyatt and all his friends. In fact, Malcolm had so much fun that after the potluck he was insisting that he "NEEDED" to go to another Halloween party.

Halloween 2010

This year we stuck close to our new home and went trick-or-treating on Belvedere Street. We weren't sure exactly what to expect because we'd heard so much about the experience and we were certainly not disappointed! I think it was slightly overwhelming for the kids but they loved it. It was basically a giant street party with the road closed off to traffic. There were tons of trick-or-treaters out -- both kids and adults in costume -- and many of the houses were decked out in themes such as Star Wars or Shrek. There was even a live band set up on one of the street corners. Overall, a very fun and festive experience. One of my favorite parts was the cookie monster house who was handing out cold beers to adults and candy to the kids. We'll definitely be back next year, though perhaps slightly earlier in the day to avoid some of the crowds.
