Today I decided to meet up with a "hike for tykes" group, at Redwood Park in the Oakland Hills. Unfortunately, I couldn't find the meeting area, but the three of us decided to go on a little adventure of our own. Scarlett looked at the trees, took a nap, and nursed among a nature. Max looked for sticks, poked at mushrooms, and pretended he was a dragon under the giant trees.

"We have a crawler baby"

Or at least that's what Max exclaimed when Perry came home from work. Scarlett has been getting around pretty well the past month (although quite slowly), by crawling two paces, pushing up into sitting, scooting on her bottom, and repeating. Finally this weekend she seems to have mastered the traditional crawl. We have a crawler baby!

Last toothless smile

Bottom 2 teeth cut today at 7 1/2 months. Can't see them easily quite yet, but toothless smiles will be replaced with toothy grins in the near future.

Fall

Looks like we do get fall in Alameda. This city girl (and her city toddler) are loving it!
