Pool Party!

It was a fun filled day. We took a stroll in downtown Davis this morning and walked a little through the campus were I went to college : ) We went back to the house so the boys could have lunch. Then Adrian and Ilein came over to see the boys before their nap time. After putting the boys down we went out to lunch with them while papa Ed and mama Sue watched the boys. Later today we went to a little family dinner at Gab and Jason's house in Sac. We got to meet baby Juliana and the boys had a blast in the pool!

Piano

It was a scorcher today, like 104 degrees or something! The boys went to the park early before it got hot and after nap they played outside in the pool until the pool water was super disgusting. After that we took it inside and played some piano. Thomas played left hand, Eli right, and Caleb worked the pedals!

Berkeley

This morning we took the boys to a creek to play in some shallow pools before leaving Sara & Justin's. It was a short but sweet stay!

Next we headed to Berkeley to meet up with a friend and have lunch. We walked around Phil's alma mater, Cal aka UC Berkeley and ate lunch on campus.

After cutting it too close with Bay Area traffic we managed to get to Davis by 5-ish : )

We drove by our old pad in Berkeley for some nostalgia. We lived in the downstairs of this house in a tiny 400 sqft apartment. See the red door behind those stairs, that was our front door! There is also a pic of Phil in front of the architecture building were he spent many many hours, its ironic because its the ugliest building on campus : )

Little Tractors

The boys played in the back yard all morning. In the afternoon we all walked to a winery and shared a bottle of wine with lunch while the boys played on little tractors : )

So a couple months ago I found out through a fb group for parents of id trips that there was another family in the same town as my bro in law. We made arrangements to meet up! I was sooo excited to meet another set of id triplets : ) They are the first complete set of id trips we have ever met. They are a rare breed! We have pics on our good camera but not on my phone so you'll have to wait till I get back to Portland (I also need to get permission from them as well too). I could sort of tell them apart but it was really hard!

Afterwards we had dinner and it was lovely. Roger & Judy came over as well, which was a nice treat : )

Sad Good Bye, Happy Hello

Sadly we left San Jose today and after a whole week of bonding the boys did not want to leave their mama Elda and tia Aracely. They will surely miss each other! The boys had such a great time in SJ : )

After leaving we had a happy hello since we met up with Phil's brother and his family at their Chinese meeting in Fremont. Afterwards we drove to their home in Livermore and had some fun in the backyard. Here are some pics of Caleb eating a strawberry.

Monterey

I picked Phil up this afternoon from the airport and we headed down to Monterey (a little over an hour S of San Jose) for a quick overnight getaway. I miss my boys already, there's no Caleb to bring me my flip flops when I don't need them. No Eli to see how many different ways he can apply the sign for 'all done' and yet it always makes sense. No Thomas to ignore me as much as possible all day until its time to nurse, then I become his fav person. Hope they can make it through the day without their toot sweets (what Phil calls nursing). We are having some fun baby free time even though Phil is dying to see his boys : )

Took a pic of three seagulls, one for each of my babies!

Relaxation

We just relaxed all day! I forgot to take pics with my phone so here is a pic of Caleb standing on my brothers' playstation and playing with the joystick! I hope he doesn't find out, hehehe : )
