friday night with ravi...

Ravi and his parents (Gina + Manny) are in town this weekend to visit family -but we were lucky enough to see them on Friday night. There were a few tears, a few power struggles but mostly love between lila and her buddy. Harper is just excited that Ravi will have a little brother in October...

out to the A's game...

We took BART to Oakland to cheer for the A's (we lasted 3 innings, 3 jumbo dogs and 1 order of nachos). It was a warm and sunny day at the ballpark.

tricks...

Harper is up to some new stuff these days....She rolls on her side, pulls her socks off and tries to suck her toes (but looks like Harpie has her mom's flexibility...sorry Harps!). Whatever she's doing she's pretty happy most of the time, which makes the rest of us very happy. xo

4 months!

Harpie is officially 4 months old today...she spent the day napping, hanging out in her gym, going to the park, talking and doing lots of crunches. Yes, this girl is on her way to killer abs.
