Happy Weekend!

Happy weekend!  Things have been busy at our house.  Tallulah had a cold  which she recovered from but Aaron has been sick this whole holiday weekend which has been a bummer.  Nixon is always carrying to many germs with all that Hong Kong travel :)

Tallulah has been loving her Hummingbird class at Waldorf.  I think her favorite part is when we all sit down at the table and eat snack and then wash our dishes and sweep and clean up.  She had great manners and is such a great helper.

We had some exciting news this week when Chad and Andy announced that they had bought back Nixon from Billabong.  Billabong had been struggling to stay a float and Nixon was their shining star but in order to pay down their debt, Billabong agreed to sell back Nixon which was awesome news for everyone at Nixon.  This means great things for Nixon, now that they are not held back by Billabong.  We are excited to see what the future holds.

Other then that, we had a wonderful Valentine's day and look forward to Spring coming.  We hope to make a trip to San Francisco soon to see Cousin Julien, who is getting so big and handsome.

Here is a fun video of Tallulah, who has loved that she has mastered the slide at the park, along with a video of her putting on her "make up" that she got for Valentine's day. (It is play make up made out of wood)

Stay tuned.

Love to all.

Tallulah is feeling much better!

Last week was a bit hectic for us.  Tallulah seemed like she was teething and then had a bit of a runny nose.  She had a mild fever that went up and down but it seemed normal.  The doctor said she had a little bit of fluid in her ear but nothing serious and we could ride it out before considering antibiotics.  As the week progressed, Tallulah stayed the same and was not sleeping at night so finally on Thursday night we decided to give her the antibiotics.  That night she slept better and then was feeling a lot better by Friday.  Sadly, she had to miss her first day of class at her Waldorf school so that was a bummer but we are just glad that she is back to her old self and feeling so much better.  This was her first time really being sick so we were glad it went well for her.  Thank goodness for homeopathic medicines as well!! They have helped her so much.

We had a great weekend. The weather has been amazing.  Saturday, we played out in the front yard and Tallulah painted and played with our neighbors cat, Bam Bam.  Today we had an awesome hike at Torrey Pines state beach with Tallulah in her hiking backpack.  She loves traveling on Papa's back!  It was super busy.  I think everyone was trying to get out before the Superbowl game.  Of course, we could care less about the game so it was nice to be outside, enjoying the sun.

This week will be back to normal and hopefully enjoying more crazy warm weather!
