7 years + 5 months...and 4 years + 4 months

lyft kid day, mother's day, and last day of school!

almost seven and a half!

happy campers!

these are self-directed poses...naturals?

what a character

a lion and her babydoll 

sweet as pie

lyla and her best friends in the whole wide world

lyla ditched school for work!

so happy to spend some special time with her dad

she quickly forgot about john when she found a new friend

love at first sight

pretending to be "mommy"

ran my first ultramarathon...a beautiful 50k in the santa cruz hills

more than halfway done!

this little one rocked her ballet recital

it wouldn't be livi if she wasn't aprehensive
about being on stage

john did her hair...i'd give him a B-

post-recital lunch!

herbie and his dog walking crew

the one who always makes lemonade!

a rare hot day in san francisco...good thing we
have plenty of umbrellas to create some shade

lyla loves making her own rice burritos...so fancy!

pool time

the cutest pellegrinis you ever did see!

we send herbie in to wake livi every morning...works like a charm!

enjoying doggie licks must be genetic.

my view from a run - I was so excited to bring the family back to see it

this was the same view on the following day
(not exactly what i had envisioned showing the family)

we still enjoyed my mother's day hike!

we were pretty impressed with lyla's stamina

the two cutest little boys!!

family pictures are always a challenge

can you find lyla under herbie's tongue?

it's not always sunshine and rainbows with these two girls!

the first pic with herbie looking at the camera...
and he looks horribly uncomfortable

that's more like it!

following their fearless leader

we did it! a great start to mother's day

straight to the bath for these dirty children

tea party with the towels they dyed for me

all i wanted was to read ALONE without
any creature touching me...epic fail!

croissant and camp...must be a friday morning

rain coat model...

and his creepy sidekick!

our favorite place to be...on the couch!

mornings with lyla

she was born with attitude =)

fans of my first massive cheese plate

last day of her first year at preschool!

she was excited to show us all her tricks on the bar

she's definiely one of a kind 💗

a rare moment where she has mom and dad all to herself

last day of 1st grade!  saying bye to max the bunny

summer celebration party after school!

off to second grade

a sad farewell to rosaleen who saved us when sheila
went back to ireland

check out our new carpet on the stairs...
about 5 years overdue!

lyla's first trip to the grown-up salon

two kids cuts and a cut for me!

re-enacting john when he colors my hair...
which he does every 5-6 weeks. =)

our little hairstylest!
