Update for the past few weeks

Wow - we are a little overdue for an update, so bear with me - this will be a long one.

Brady: Still obsessed with cheerleaders and even has a "favorite cheerleader" on Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team. It's Kelly Jo in case anyone is curious. He is doing well in swimming and his sports class. Brady is always the first to answer when the coach asks a question (and like his mom he thinks his answer is always right). Here are some pics from soccer day - Papa Hyman owes us pictures from baseball day. On baseball day Papa was encouraging Brady to "get second" when running the bases, so Brady stopped and picked up second base. The kid is very literal at times. The class is hysterical to watch, 20 2-and 3-year-olds trying to stretch and follow directions - comedy. Brady was acting like a little Abercrombie model this morning - leaning against the neighbor's front porch.

Kendall: Brady has been wanting to include her in everything, which is cute. He sings to her and shows her how he brushes his teeth. He was acting like her tummy time coach when she was playing on her surf mat the other day. She was exhausted after the tummy work-out. She is smiling more now, but really only smiles in the morning and smiles most at Brady.

I bet some of you (Brett) wonder what we do all day. Well, we take walks, play with the neighbors and I drag my two-month-old to hearings against the 241 Toll Road. Marie, Isabella, Kendall and I attended the hearing yesterday and even made it on Surfer Magazine's web-site: http://surfermag.com/photos/flash/toll-road-hearing-08/ check out the picture - it's the second one on the page:). I'll also include a few more on this entry to prove to all of you (Kelly, Heidi and Debbie) that I was there.

Kendall says "Save our State Parks!"


Let's see...what else. We had the world's biggest, scariest spider living outside the back door. We went to Happy Hour with Grammy and Papa (I REALLY enjoyed having a glass of wine again!). We went on a train ride from San Clemente to San Juan Capistrano and back. I almost had a heart attack when they cancelled the train back to San Clemente (stuck for several hours without an unlimited supply of diapers and two tired children - even scarier than the spider!), but thankfully they sent an Amtrak to get us. Brady LOVED the "adventure".
