Sunny California, pt. 2

Well, I’m still visiting my mom here in California. We had a pool party the other day. Here’s everyone in the pool. It looks like a water ballet.

My nephew is super-cute and hilarious! Here he is trying to put on a helmet.

My mom is so creative–she just turned his skateboard helmet backwards to protect his head for a quick “game” of football:

And now it’s time to rest.

I couldn’t resist a window portrait with all the great window light in Mom’s house!

Stay tuned–from San Francisco I fly to Cincinnati to visit my best friend!

Sunny California!

It’s been a terribly long time since I’ve posted, and I’m so sorry! I’m traveling, visiting my family here in California. My mom & I have been spending lots of time together, and it’s so great to see her!

We went for manicures…

And watched my nephew play in the yard…

I guess he was upset he wasn’t winning.

And Mom & I went to a restaurant with fabulous window light! She is so beautiful:

The Baby’s Here!

Remember Eri’s baby shower? The baby has arrived! View most of my photos here. Some of my favorites:

Eri gets to eat sushi for the first time since the pregnancy. She’s so excited!

Eri’s Baby Shower

This weekend I hosted a couple’s baby shower for my best friend Eri & her husband Michael. It was great fun. It’s been so nice to see Eri’s tummy grow–her baby’s almost here! Click to see all the pictures, but here are a few previews:

I love the way Michael’s looking at his baby daughter:

And my favorite of the day, Eri laughing:
