The weather here has still been pretty rainy- we've had an incredibly wet winter and it's been a bit hard to be cooped up with the two kids. I was thinking about how when Sasha was 8 mo. how I would regularly go to the park, baby bootcamp and on all sorts of outdoor adventures. Noah, has had a different experience...mostly he's toted along to Sasha's dance class, swim class, soccer or one of her friends houses. Luckily he is incredibly happy and rather chill in any situation. I now understand what people mean when they say, "I wish I could have had my 2nd child first!"Noah's first tooth came in at the end of the month and it explained some of the drooling and snotty noses. However, the poor kid has also gotten all of Sasha's colds this winter and I often feel like a big kleenex as he wipes his nose on me or his gums to ease his pain! It's rare that my shoulder is dry. He's a master at sitting and very balanced at standing, however he still hates being on his stomach and shows no interest in crawling. We'll see if he decides to follow in his sisters footsteps and just start walking.
We did have two nice weekends so we took advantage and headed to the beach. Sasha loves hanging out by the water but more so it being warm enough for her to wear nothing or very little. Alex took the kids down to Santa Cruz where he bought a very nice, very expensive mandolin. We'll have to post some pictures of it, it is a beauty and he's getting pretty good. It was a very exciting purchase for him that he saved up his poker winnings for! He plays every other week with some friends in the city and apparently he's not bad. I had to work so he took the kids on an adventure, his first time with two on his own. They had a lot of fun and Noah was a champ on the drive.
The other exciting thing we did this month was head down to San Jose and go to the 2nd round of the NCAA tournament. We saw a great game with Butler and Murray St. and part of the UNew Mexico game which was a blowout. I love college basketball so it was awesome to go!
