motel room

On our vacation, we discovered that the first thing to do in any hotel room is to unplug the phone, because it is invariably the first thing Lucca goes for. And once unplugged, it provides a good 10 minutes of concentrated play for him, thus temporarily distracting him from trying to pull the TV over on himself or unpacking our suitcases for us. This phone in a motel room in Burlington, Vermont, got an especially vigorous workout.
As a side note, the PJ's he's wearing here are now nearly too small for him, a scant two months later. Sigh. He just keeps getting bigger.
These pictures also give you a good view of his mullet. It's even longer now.

summer love

I'm having trouble mustering enthusiasm for my unofficial "farewell to summer" series today, as we are no longer basking in the crisp slanted light of autumn in San Diego, but rather cooking in the heat of another Santa Ana. ugh. I am so ready to say farewell to summer.
But anyway, here are a few pictures from a playdate in our back yard a couple months ago - Ollie and Lucca going in for a sweet summer kiss. This occurred about thirty seconds after Sage planted one on Ollie; Ollie's ready-for-action stance never faltered throughout.
