A Day At The Beach

Summers in San Francisco don't surface until September or October. Summer is here and we are enjoying a pleasant 80-82 degree day and nice cool nights of 60 degrees. Our mini heat waves only last a week so you have to get in all the fun summer activities within this week time frame.

This week we hit the beach! And best of all, I can load both babies in the stroller and be there within minutes. I'm so lucky to live in the best area of SF. Myla and Milan weren't too sure about the sand but there in nothing they won't do for a couple of Cheerios. They sat on their towels, ate Cheerios and enjoyed the view.

Nothing Better

It doesn't get better than this.

Myla and Milan are 1!

I remember the day Myla and Milan were born like it was yesterday. It was by far one of the best and happiest days of my life. I love to replay their birth in my mind and wish so badly I could remember everything. How they smelled, the sound of their newborn cry, how tiny they felt in my arms. If I could only turn back time, I would do it all over again.

Myla and Milan's birthday started like all others with the exception of gifts and birthday cards on the breakfast table. A tradition my Mom held true for all four kids and one I've started for my own. It was such fun waking the morning of your birthday to find gifts.

Now that the girls are officially toddlers, our family activities are much more exciting. On their actual birthday, John and I took the girls to Golden Gate Park to ride a carousel and then to play on the swings at the playground. It was such a great day and yes I cried most of the day at the thought of no longer having newborns (yes, I'm insane).
