Natalie loves the playground at Duboce Park - a quick hop on the muni from 21st ave.

new digs!

Luckily for all parties concerned, Natalie took to the new house like a fish takes to water...

She especially loved the window seat, especially once she figured out how to get down without falling on her face.

ocean beach

Still on the way to the new digs, the weather was so nice Mom & Dad had to introduce Natalie to the Pacific Ocean.

On future trips to the beach they'll stay busy trying to keep her from running straight into it.

On their way into the city to make the move official, the crew stopped to grab some views...






"I don't know, kid - how long do you think it is?"

birthday aquatic

Dad's gift was a floaty thing for the pool.

Nat wasn't too sure how she liked it the first time, but has since gotten the hang of the "huge body of water" thing.

happy #1 (again)

Some of the SoCal Sweeks came through Sonoma just in time to catch Natalie's birthday celebration...

As for little Hansa, she thoroughly enjoyed being the center of attention. Hasn't fully grasped the gift thing yet, though.
