Redwoods and Wine Country

Today we went to Muir Woods National Recreation Area and did some hiking. We saw some beautiful sequoias--although there are not the gigantic ones you often see in pictures. Then we went up to Sonoma Valley and had a little wine tasting and a picnic. Off to Livermore where I have to work...

In San Francisco

Caleb did well on his first flight, considering we sat on the plane at the gate for almost two hours and then had a five hour flight. He's not the best at sleeping anywhere other than his crib, so it was difficult for him to sleep on the plane and now at the hotel. He also doesn't sleep well in the stroller! We think he might be getting some more teeth in, so that coupled with the inconsistent sleep, has made him a little grumpy. But, he is letting his mom and dad enjoy as much of San Francisco as they can considering they have a six month old to tote around. And he charms just about everyone we come across, including the waiters/waitresses and museum security guards. Tomorrow, we leave the city and head to wine country and then to Livermore, where I'll have to do some work for a couple of days.

Tuesday at Home

I know this is supposed to be a photo blog but I haven't broken out the camera lately. I have Tuesdays off, so Caleb and I had fun shopping for shoes (for mommy) and clothes (for Caleb) today. We started stocking up on fall/winter cloths, mostly in the 12 month size. Otherwise, we've just been getting ready for our big trip on Friday. We'll be spending three nights in San Francisco and then going to Livermore, California, where I'll be working for a few days. Then heading back to DC next Friday. I'll try to blog while we're out there. Everyone keep your fingers crossed that Caleb is in a good mood on the 5 hour plane trip!

First Post

Welcome to everyone who has come over from Caleb's baby site! I hope to use this blog to keep everyone who is interested up to date on Caleb's life. I'll still post pictures and hopefully will post more often but maybe just quick tidbits.

We're off to San Francisco on Friday! This will be Caleb's first airplane trip. I have to go for work, so Kris and Caleb are joining me. Should be fun and we'll take lots of pictures.

Caleb is now eating peas, bananas, apples, pears, and sweet potatoes. I think so far apples are his favorite. Vote for his next food in my blog poll.
