This past Saturday was the first in a bit we had some free time and wanted to do something fun, we were sad to find that it was supposed to rain the ENTIRE day! I finally came across something that looked fun. Its called the Jungle and its in San Jose maybe 10 min. away. How have I never been here? its pretty much Chuck E. Cheese blown up! So to start its free for parent, kids are 6.95 and babies are obviously free. its 2 stories of tubes, slides, ball pits, net bridges and more! there is a area for littler kids (Bryson warmed up here) and they have a bounce house.
Such a fun day! we didnt want to stop having fun, so when we went home we built our first family fort :) Yay for Saturday's... I love my boys
Part of the reason we moved to this house in Cupertino was the back yard. It's so big and Matt envisioned a garden and room for the boys to run around, so thats what we did. We all helped Bryson got tired and needed a rest :)this is a trial run and we are planting a lot of things we have never tried before. Our garden list: onions garlic purple,red and yukon gold potatoes soy beans zucchini yellow squash pumpkin watermelon cantaloupe peppers tomatoes(cherry,tomatillo,roma, and early bird) spinach iceberg lettuce romaine lettuce edamame we know some may not work but like I said its a trial run but we are super excited :)
I forgot some good stuff! Matt was off last week unfortunately sick. So we were not able to go out and do much but we did have a few great moments! Matt, I mean Bryson got some new train tracks for his Geo Trax. They played with trains a whole bunch! And for the first time in like 30 years it snowed in the bay area. We didnt actually see it snow but we woke up and we saw some on the deck.and the same day was pretty warm and we went on a little hike and had a cool national geographic moment. we saw 3 coyotes chase 4 deer, I think the deer got away :)
we had a busy month!! Everett turned 6 months old! he is getting so big so fast. He is rolling over both ways and starting to get his knees up to crawl ( almost there!). He laughs all the time and is my little angel baby! he is now going to bed on his own, he stopped using a pacifier(on his own) and smiles ALL DAY, even when Bryson steamrolls him! we found a great little hike just a 5 min. drive from home. Can you see this view?Love my boys! and they love the outdoors.
we went on another day hike past San Jose called quicksilver. We just bought a child carrier backpack for Bryson to get in. He likes to walk but his little legs get tired after a while. We are hoping this gets a lot of use this summer and we highly recommend it! its a dueter comfort II.
and another fun thing that happened was my Father in law just got back from Kuwait, this was his 2nd tour and we are grateful for his service, my boys ( all 3) missed him a lot this past year.
In January we moved from Sunnyvale to Cupertino. Change is good, we now are renting a house with a big back yard and the boys have their own room. Matt walks to work, 5 min door to door and we live so close to some great walks and hikes. lets see what I have as far as pictures, I will post pics of the house soon.
Bryson got this for Christmas and its just stinkin cute!
We found a favorite park!Everett is now big enough for the wagon. Matt has been waiting for this day since we got the wagon and I was pregnant with Everett so we have had a lot of fun walks :)
January was a busy month getting adjusted to the new place and unpacking! but we love it!
