Michelle and Zeus Go Hiking

A few months ago Zeus and I went for an early morning hike. Despite the fact that I had done this hike several times before, we got lost on the way down and had to do some serious scrambling. The day ended with us crawling through 10 feet of thorny bramble before we made it back to "civilization." Let this be a lesson to everyone: Michelle should never be in charge of directions.

Everything started out great.

Getting my bearings?

Lost!

Next time I'll bring a compass!

Morning at Presidio Park

First a disclaimer: these photos and video are about 6 months old. Sometimes it just takes that long to get a post online! But still cute nonetheless. Dillon and I spent one morning at the lovely Presidio Park in Old Town. The funny thing is her shoes are so white in these photos; they have since become seven shades darker.

I found rocks on my hike!

Examining the ice plants.

A lovely view of Mission Bay.

In front of the Serra Museum.

Snack time!
And here's a little video of her exploring the grounds. We pretty much spend most of the day like this: Dillon running around; us running after her.

Adventures in Daycare: the Sequel

It's been a few months since my first post about Dillon's new life in daycare and we're pleased to report it's been awesome! Dillon does so many fun activities, is starting to make friends, and her teachers are so wonderful. And now, because Princess Dillon has been having a hard time napping, she gets to sleep in the playhouse because it's the darkest place at daycare. Here are some more pix from their Instagram:

Nutella Face

Dillon's first sample of Nutella. If you can gauge how much she liked it by how much she got on her face, it would be safe to say it's a favorite.

That Was Then / This is Now (VII)

Who can resist putting a baby in a laundry basket? Not me. Of course, now Dillon is old enough to climb in herself...

Are these clothes even clean?
