Kyle and I spent a long weekend together in San Diego. We had such a great time. Henry had a good time, too, because he spent the weekend with Kyle's parents, G-Daddy and Mimi.


Kyle and I at the beach last Friday. The weather was great! Sunny and just warm enough to go to the pool on Saturday afternoon.

We also got to see some good friends. From left: Ryan and Meghan Brown, Jamie Mills, Bob Beckstedt, me and Kyle. Ryan and Meghan live in San Diego and are expecting their first child in July. Jamie also lives in San Diego. Bob just happened to be visiting her the same time we were in town so we all met for dinner on Saturday night.


Kyle and I will the beautiful mom-to-be.


On Sunday, Kyle and I went to the San Diego Zoo. If you look closely, you can see the baby hippo sleeping on its mother. The baby was only six weeks old.

We got to see the polar bears eat lunch. The zoo gives them a diet of vegetables so that they don't have as much blubber and stay cool in the warmer climate.


This update would not be complete with a Henry update. Henry's growing more independent every day. This morning, he insisted on feeding himself with a spoon. No help from Mommy! Notice the oatmeal covering his chest. Big mess!

The most exciting news is that Henry took three steps all by himself yesterday morning. He hasn't taken any since, but it's start. Here's to hoping he keeps it up!
