Carter's First Haircut (finally)

I love Carter's curls...but finally needed to take him in for a trim. He got to sit in a jeep and play with toys while he got his hair cut. He was a little unsure of things at first, but did really well. He got a little tired of sitting there towards the end, but I think he actually enjoyed himself for the most part. Of course, I took LOTS of pictures, so if anyone wants to see the rest let me know and I'll send you the whole album.

Ryland Park

This a a GREAT park with lots of fun things to do. Carter was shy at first, but once he had a chance to spend some time at the park and get used to his surroundings, he decided he wasn't afraid of the spraying water anymore. He had a blast and got soaked(hence the changed clothes in the pics)! Of course, the sand area, swings, and play structure were fun too.

Monterey, CA

It has been foggy here...but only right where we live and gorgeous along the rest of the coast, so we decided to go somewhere for the day. We drove down HWY 1 to Monterey and it really couldn't have been a more beautifully clear day today! We had lunch in Monterey, then went to the wharf so I could have a sample of my favorite clam chowder at Fisherman's Grotto and get some salt water taffy. Next, we went to one of my favorite wineries. They have free tasting, reasonably priced (and even some cheap) wines and perhaps not our all time favorite...but, their wine is still pretty good. Cory played with Carter out on the lawn area next to the pond while mommy tasted and bought wine, then we drove back home. It's amazing how great it feels to get out of the house and do something different sometimes!

I love how he says "uh oh" and looks on the floor to see what was spilled.

A Sunny Day at the Park

I took Carter to the park way too close to nap time. He had fun anyhow and it was actually his first time in the swing. He seemed to like it for the most part.

San Francisco Zoo

The first Wednesday of every month is "free day" at the zoo, so we went with a friend of mine from work and saw lots of animals. It was VERY crowded, but Carter likes looking at people just as much as he does animals!

Carter wanted to stay and look at the Lemurs and wouldn't let go of the ledge.
