SAN DIEGO

Elmo's world was invaded yesterday by Memere, Nicole & Cooper. Sea World is where Elmo and all his friends spend the summer away from Sesame Street. The trip was a big one for Cooper. He was star struck by the BIG BLUE! COOKIE MONSTER. The smile was the biggest I've seen yet from this happy boy.
Sea World needs some toddler friendly advice however. Preferred parking means you drive around forever trying to find the preferred parking lot. Parking the stroller is just as annoying. Access to the sites are not stroller friendly nor are are they handicapped accessible. Diaper changing stations are very difficult to find. Nicole found one as we were leaving the park.
We had a fun filled day looking at all the fish and birds that live in beautiful San Diego.
On the way home we stopped in to se Grand Nana Marie and Bill. We had a lovely visit and Cooper was an Angel!

WHAT A WEEKEND!

Blue's Clue's and Bubbles. It doesn't get any better. We had a fun time celebrating Cooper's second birthday at the pool in Laguna Beach. With all his favorite people around Cooper was a happy boy.
It doesn't seem possible that it's been two years already since becoming a Memere. I have to admit it's been an amazing time. This event two years ago set into motion a major change. A whole new life started for Cooper and me.





Life is beautiful!

A VISIT FROM NICOLE & COOPER

Since Jakob is in India for a couple of weeks Nicole and Cooper are out and about. They spent Saturday and most of Sunday in Laguna with Memere and Pepere. This picture is of Main Beach in the heart of Laguna. Nicole and I walked from the hotel to this spot where there was a nice restaurant that served refreshing cocktails with this view.
It was great to see them and to have them stay over. Cooper stayed in with us in his own crib. Nicole had a room by herself and was able to sleep in a little in the morning. Something she hasn't done in about two years.


We had a great time keeping up with Cooper. He swam in the pool, played in his sand and water table, played in the waves and sand on Main Beach Laguna. Riding the elevator at the hotel seemed to be Cooper's favorite activity since he could push all the buttons.
