CA Academy of Sciences

I have a presentation for school regarding Green Building so I convinced Grammie and Grampie to join us on a trip up to the California Academy of Sciences. We arrived to a big line and they were only letting in a few hundred or so people at a time. After doing some BFing on the sly we made it in and headed directly to the underground aquarium where Amaya stared at some fish with Mom and Dad. Soon after she fell asleep in her peanut which allowed the rest of us to stroll leisurely around the building. San Francisco was beautiful, warm and very clear the perfect weather for a quick day trip. Here are a few pics the rest are uploaded into her gallery.

We went to Santana Row today for the Mommy and Me Halloween event and met our mommy friends there for a quick spin through the stores. There were so many cute kids and costumes walking around and we got a few pieces of candy that we saved for Daddy. Mommy ate all the popcorn from Cinearts and Amaya made sure that she drank plenty of milk which we all know she thinks is better than candy. Randomly we say the Pittsburg Penguins out in front of Hotel Valencia, apparently they are playing the San Jose Sharks tonight! Anyway, Amaya had fun peering out at everyone from under her Love Bug hat and she took a lot of pictures with her friends!

Pumpkin Patch Time!

Today we took Amaya to the Morgan Hill pumpkin patch and apparently a lot of other people had the same idea. When I was younger I remember the pumpkin patch being super small but now it's HUGE with a carousel, haystack ride and train. It was so hot out so we put Amaya's Halloween bib on instead of her regular costume and we were only there for 20 minutes because of the heat. Just enough time to pick out a few pumpkins, eat some buttered corn and take a few pics! Only in California is late October 90 degrees outside!

4 Months Old

Amaya is already 4 months old. Still seems like yesterday I was feeding her in the hospital nursery. Now she is so much bigger, getting stronger and growing really fast. We had her 4 month wellness check and she is progressing very well. At her 2 month checkup she was in the 5th percentile in just about all categories. At 4 months old she is 11 pounds 11.8 ounces and 23 inches long. Both of these measurements put her in the 10th percentile, her head measured in with a 16 inch circumference, that is the 25th percentile. Her mommy said she just has a big head like her daddy. She has been sleeping better, and is finally in the bassinet most of the night. We can usually get her down around 8:30PM and on most nights will sleep until 4:00AM. Overall things are going well and Amaya is such a beautiful little baby.

17 Weeks

Amaya turns 17 weeks today so I thought I would do some updates! First, we've had a first major sickness. Amaya had thrush which made the both of us extremely uncomfortable. My poor baby suffered in silence, she wasn't extra fussy but one day I noticed a whitish looking residue on her lips. It's taken almost two weeks for us to kick it. Then, the drool came on. If you notice that the pics include a big bulky looking bib, well that's because Drooly McDroolerson has taken over my baby. After ruining tons of outfits a lightbulb finally went off because doing 10 loads of laundry a day was getting REALLY OLD.

Amaya is going to have another BFF!

Aunt Nana texted us the other day and told us that Amaya is going to have a BFF in Fenruary, when she gives birth to a girl! So what did we do to celebrate? We shopped! I can't wait until these girls are big enough to hang out, have sleepovers and get into trouble be perfect angels together.
