The big Triple

Tonight was a big night. After a long season of hard work and practice, with two outs and his last at bat, Owen swung like he has never done before and drove the ball into left field. Past the third baseman, past the left fielder... Owen ran hard for first - rounded the corner, made it to second, and kept going - Driving home two key runs to keep the Cubs in the game - the left fielder relayed an amazing throw to third - Every Cubs fan was cheering as hard as we were, they knew what this meant... And Owen (blessed with his Dad's lack of speed) dug hard and some how squeaked by the throw and landed safely at third.

This was a momentous night.
This is was it feels like :-)

New Bikes!

New bikes from the Grandmoms at Christmas.
And the first time Tessa is riding a two-wheeler (although we tried with Owen's old bike... it must be the fact that it is Pink and Purple that she is ready to give it a whirl).




And then a little footage of Finn riding along on the scooter

Finn's First Steps (well almost)

The almost part being that Finn has been making great "strides" in the last couple of weeks in walking. Starting last Saturday, when from morning where he was taking a two and three steps to the end of the day when he was stumbling across the room. Only a matter of time until the last of the creepy crawlers is gone.

Tess is just like every other driver in California when it rains.
