Shake it if you got it.

Marco is obsessed with belly dancers right now. Grandma took him to the Fog Fest. He's still talking about "the man bangs the drum and the girl dance like this!!"

In this video he shows me how the belly dancers dance while they play the drums and then says "Barney Grandma" took him to see them. Marco needs a translator.

Reunited and it feels so good.

We stopped in on Brookie on the way home from daycare.

Not sure who's the monkey in this scenario.

The Fabulous Baker Boys

Marco and I headed to the Valley for a sleepover. Sure, it seems a little early for pumpkin cookies, but Gina is crazy for Autumn.

Please note: The boys were swimming which is why they're half naked and also why it's too early for pumpkin cookies.

Road Trip

Marco's notable quotables from the road:

"No Mama, I don't want to go home. Check the map. See? It says we're not going home."

"Are we going back to Jayme and Beck's house? No? Okay! Yes! Back to Papa's boat?!"

"I needed to say goodbye to the pool!!!"

And finally, after we got home, we told him that for being so good, we're going to make his favorite dinner of chicken, potatoes and broccoli.

And he lifted his shirt up, sucked his belly button in and out and said, "You see that? My belly button say 'that not my favorite!'"

Baby Beck

Marco loves his new friend "Baby Beck." Appropriately, he now calls Beck "Big Beck." Makes perfect sense to me.






Baby Beck has a baby pool (obviously) that Marco calls his "big boy pool."


ps - swim diapers totally work. Enough said.
