More Fun in Chico

This morning, after breakfast, we took a stroll around the block with Ruth and Skylar while Kirk and Soren went back to sleep.
At the top of the hill, Skylar and you played with balls in the street. The neighborhood dog nicknamed Fluffy Dog came out to join you. Skylar likes to pet the dog. You were unsure whether you wanted to pet the doggy - he was bit smelly if you asked me.
When we got home, you played 1-on-1 basketball against Skylar - here you are dunking the basketball. Nice move!
After a tough game of basketball, you ate some lunch in Skylar's swan highchair. You loved eating pasta and tomatoes.
Skylar has lots of toys in the living room - you played quite well together. Once in a while, you would snatch a toy from Skylar like the pink Leapfrog learning toy, but luckily Skylar did not mind sharing (most of the time). You two also had fun putting the puzzles together.
Ruth and I went for a run in the park with Skylar and you in the double stroller.
After our run, we let you two run around the grassy area. You picked up the sycamore tree leaves that fell down on the grass and gave them to Skylar. Here is a cute shot of you hugging Skylar.
After your naps, we went swimming at Ruth's gym and Kirk played tennis. Here are the kids packed in backseat again.
Ruth's mom (Jean) met us at the gym so that she could watch Soren while we were in the pool. You had fun splashing in the pool and also jumping into the water. Today you also figured out how to blow bubbles in the water. I was so impressed! Last week at swim class, the instructor gave us little plastic hats to practice blowing bubbles (the plastic hats flipped over when you blew on them). Good drill because now you can do it!
Here is another cute photo of us in the pool.

After swimming, since it was 5:30 and the kids were all hungry, we decided to eat out at a kid-friendly place nearby - what a long day. Now you are fast asleep upstairs while the adults are snacking on freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. YUMMY!

Okay. You can all come back now. I'm getting bored with no one at home.
