Ezra Update

Ezra just being Ezra....so cute
Jessica said he was "over stimulated" and couldn't sleep....I think she was trying to put him in a "baby burka" to keep out the stimulation
From watching his parents, Ezra has figured out what to do with a glass


Ezra having a little time on the rug, showing off how he lifts up

How Many Starbucks are There?

When you ride with Margaret or Donna, you stop at Starbucks.......just how many are there? They seem to be every where!

Day Game

It's tough to beat a day game during the middle of the week.  The weather was perfect, sunny and 60's.  And the A's beat the Yanks!  We received free tickets from a friend (thanks Sarah R.!) and it still cost $40 after we paid for parking, two sandwiches and a beer to share.

The only down side is the vulgar young people around us.  I wouldn't want to take a young child.  It could be just the area we were sitting in.....lots of twenty something men trying to impress one another?  Oh, and the fact that the very large guy in front of me stood up and completely blocked my view (did I tell you he was HUGE?) so I missed the triple play.  Warning, you will probably hear me whining about that for years.

Next month we go to SF to see the Giants play the Rockies. I'm loving baseball season.  I can hardly wait to introduce Ezra to the game.

Babies, babies, everywhere

EZRA!

Ezra and his Aunt Carolyn
These photos do not capture the chaos that was three infants and one toddler in a small room.  Babies were kissed and passed around, along with two dogs, three sets of parents and one set of grandparents.  Fun was had by all....especially us since Wesley tuned our Apple products and showed off his iPad which may be a NEED for us now :)

A Random Walk Down Main Street

Ezra's 4 months old today!
Farmers' Market...Kirsten was buying kettle corn so is not in the photo
Ezra LOVES the football hold
G-Ma LOVING her little Ezra
The next photos are of the 11 statues that Pleasanton has placed around Main Street.  You love them or hate them, but you do touch them and talk about them.

Tea Time!

Wills got the autograph of Brian Sussman, a radio personality that he adores.

Ezra with grandpa Dave and Auntie Lindsay

Jessica (aka Ezra's mom), Lindsay (aka Ezra's Auntie), Ezra, and Edie (aka Ezra's G-Ma)
Tough to tell but Wills made a special Tea Party shirt for Ezra
Dave with Erika & Fred Maxwell.  Do these look like racist homophobes?
A reporter doing his job
Crowd shot.  We got there just before 5 and people were leaving, but a few arrived too.
Dave gave money....without discussing it with Edie
A very happy fellow.  And the place was so clean too!

Happy Easter

Ezra with a smile
Ezra with demon eyes....which I thought I fixed, but obviously I have no idea what I'm doing

Lindsay & Dave
Travis and Lindsey

This is the first time we've made lamb and it turned out fabulous

The kids LOVE their Easter baskets
Wines that were served

Ezra's first basket
We had a great time and the Millers dropped by for dessert, which was prepared by Lindsay. I should have taken a photo but it was such a hit that I really didn't have time.
