The Groove

I think we're getting into a groove here at our house. We get up around 7:30, eat, change diapers, play on the bed in HC's bedroom, nap, and start all over again.

Except that recently, we've been getting pretty darn adventurous! Yesterday, I took HC for a monster walk to Jen and Little M's house in the Haight with Wendy and the Bean. We walked for an hour each way.

And then today, Arne took HC into the heart of the beast. They tramped down to Civic Center for the Giants World Champion parade. Wow! I took my lunch break to track them down by bike. I always feel very McGuyver on my bike. [Aside: But really, what new parent doesn't feel like McGuyver most of the time?! Need a burp cloth, use a onesie that is (already!) too small. Need a wet wipe; try a clean sock dipped in your drinking water (just don't dip it more than once!).]

It was thick with people out there, and when I finally found Arne and my hungry baby, I'd already rechained my bike and rode the wrong way down a 5 lane one-way street to get to them. Poor things, from there they walked another 2.3 miles home. Buses kept sweeping by, full to the brim.

Anyway, here are some sweet pictures of our little mensch. I know you could care less what I say as long as I give you photos. And look who's found his feet!!!
