gettin' things done!

swim lessons YAY

ok this is not a great picture... but stella has been going to swim lessons on saturdays and loving them! we go to the funky indoor pool at my old high school and have fun splashing, laughing, singing, blowing bubbles, flirting with lifeguards, etc. too bad the pool is so hot that it steams up my camera lens.

feels like summer

kaya

beautiful kaya has arrived and we are SO happy! kaya is sinai's little sister and she is a tiny little peanut. stella got to meet her a few weekends ago and hang out with sinai and play with his cool toys. vida, ron, sinai and kaya...what an amazing family! we love ya.

love.

contemplative moment with pop

new toy

stella found a new favorite toy. She mostly loves the string and ball part and doesn't know what to make of the rabbit... thanks to the aiello's for the cool gift.

also, you might notice our new fancy flooring of softiles, sort of a parting gift from dwell!

la

we had a lovely time last weekend in la celebrating my grandfathers life. we were in my mom's hometown, manhattan beach and it was gorgeous! we took walks on the strand everyday and checked out all the hot people that live in that town. stella flirted with the hunky dudes. lunch in palos verdes with bapa's sisters and their families was the highlight of the weekend. stella was a trooper even though her two top teeth are coming in... i think we could get used to this beachy-town!

ahhhhhhh!

sadie turns 1!

good times at miss sadie sweetpea's first birthday.  stella hung with josah, sadie got her cake on and rocco went rastafarian.
