So, even though I'm back to work,
(and getting sweet lunch visits from my baby
thanks to his Grammy & Grampy) . . .
Travis and I have had some fun times
getting out and about in between
our normal day-in-day-out to-dos.

Travis and I have had some fun times
getting out and about in between
our normal day-in-day-out to-dos.
We've had fun pool days...
Park days...
Picnic days...
Double date nights...
Not to mention we've attended weddings galore!
Well, two anyway.
My brother Sean and his lady Sierra got married!
The venue was gorgeous!
Kieran wore this:
blue converse high tops! :)
Here's some awesome photobooth shots from the night:
The bride and groom!
Me & the hubs (and little Sean!)
My Mom and her sister having a blast!
When these two get together, giggles ensue.
And here's us at Trav's cousin Krissi's wedding...
I love an occassion to get the babe dressed up!
Check out his adorable Tiny TOMS!
More photobooth fun!
Baby K is looking oh so cool in those shades! Ha!
In addition to wedding celebrations,
we took baby to his first Dodger game!
Which is kind of a big deal in this household.
I mean, he had been to a couple when he was in my belly.
Like here:
But this time he was actually able to SEE the game!

& he had so much fun! Even caught a ball!
Well, kinda. Daddy helped!
It was an exciting moment,
I think especially for his Daddy.
There is something so special about
a man taking his son to a baseball game.
Especially since it has been such an important
part of Travis' life, being a baseball player himself,
and having that connection with his own father.

I also celebrated my birthday last month!
It seems like just yesterday that
I was turning 30 & was writing this post.
I blinked & now I'm 32! Oh man! Time flies!
I had multiple celebrations with family, work folks,
and a nice night out with my best girlfriends.
Ali, Belia and I drinking Moscow Mules
at James Republic in Downtown Long Beach.
Kim & Amber were into it too.
There is never any shortage of laughter
when I am with these girls.
I am so lucky to have them as my steadfast buddies.
My birthday was just an excuse to get together
and have some good food, tasty drinks and a lot of fun.
And whao!
Look at this huge birthday burger!
It's not really called a birthday burger,
I just ate it on my birthday. :)
OH! Travis got me this lovely oval onyx ring I
was eyeing from my favorite store on 2nd Street.
If you know me, you know
I love me some accessories!
As you can see, I was stoked!
It was fun celebrating with my lil' family. . .

Travis and I also celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary.
5 years already?!
5 years already?!
Sept. 25th, 2008.
And because September is jam packed
with reasons to celebrate, we decided to commemorate
it all with our very first family vacation!
I know what you are thinking.
I just got back to work and I'm already taking a vacation??
Yes, I am.
WE are.
Correction: WE did. :)
And it was awesome.
We went to Cambria.
DUH!
DUH!
(We are so predictable.)
As this was Kieran's first road trip,
we wondered how he would handle a long car ride.
Turns out, like a champ!
We road the whole 4.5 hour ride up without
as much as a peep from him in the backseat.
(Angel baby!)
We had tons of fun wine tasting in Paso Robles.

We loved Michella Winery's down-home feel.
They even had a sack toss & swing out among the grapevines.
Daou Winery has by far the best views of all of Paso.
Baby wearing and wine tasting pro at Eberly Winery!
Kieran is looking so mature in this picture,
but I can't pinpoint why! ;-)
This is one of my favorite pics from the trip.
This 5 month old puppy, Ginger, was nibbling on my 5 month
old baby's fingers. Kieran thought it was hilarious.
Love that giggle. AND that smile!
Aside from wine tasting,
we also enjoyed the coastal scenery.

We took some nice runs in the crisp morning air,
and took sunset strolls along the bluffs of Moonstone Beach.
This pic makes me feel so in love
with this man all over again.
We're so happy here.

This trip was particularly sweet for us.
We had so much fun taking Kieran
to places we have enjoyed as a couple,
that it made it that much sweeter to share it with baby.
It was such a blast, and we are really looking
forward to so many more trips with our little family.

We decided to purchase a little something
for Kieran to commemorate his first trip.
He has this fascination for plates lately, so when
we saw this small plate in one of our favorite shops
on Main Street, we knew it was the perfect keepsake.

It's kinda hard to see here,
but it has a little whale on it
and says, "You are so loved."
And, well, he is!!
I think he likes it!
He's putting everything in his mouth these days. :)

Cheers to settling in AND getting out friends!
