Our 2nd annual trip to the pumpkin patch

This year we visited Moore’s Pumpkin Patch in Castro Valley and we brought along a couple of our friends, Katie and Randy. Shorty after arriving, Christopher decided that he needed to get things going so he took control of the wagon. I’ll take it from here Christopher quickly relinquished control, however, when he discovered that [...]

Our little boy…

Christopher is amazingly outgoing, so much so that we wonder when – not if – we need to start teaching him safe behavior when talking to strangers. In the meantime, we find joy in watching our little boy meet and greet new people. A few times a week, we stop by Peet’s Coffee to get [...]

The smartest little boy

We met grandma Kathi at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants in San Jose today for lunch. While we were there, grandma’s long-time friend – from elementary school – joined us. When Janie arrived, she brought a disposable camera hoping to get a few photos of Christopher posing with his grandma. We visited for awhile [...]

Our little Beethoven!
