Life's little bangs!

Doss learned to sit up a few weeks ago. . . with a few mishaps along the way!  Just a few.  He is so good and strong and centered now, but it is pretty funny to see. . . eh-hem, since he didn't get too banged up!  I can't help but think about how it is sort of a microcosm for life.  Oh, the bang-ups he'll likely have to go through. . . and oh, how I hope we can laugh our way through most. . .

Coolness and Community

We visited Clay and Amy recently in Austin, their new home.  What a wonderful life they are carving out in that groovy place.  Seems like it is what we are searching for. . . diversity, community, easy flow between people, places.  Very cool.

on a walk to Sunday brunch. . . that's right.  we WALKED to brunch.  Didn't get in our cars.  Amazing.  YOu can see Aunt Amy and Uncle Clay up ahead, pushing miss Lo.  There is Ben, and Doss enjoying the ride.  So fun.

on our way home from Hotel San Jose, and Gueros. . . stopped at a taco stand.  So good and so fun.

the newly minted Austinites!  I love this true look at a family.

what good sports; staying on the street with the babies while Ame and I ran into a shop to scope for just a bit.  Good guys!
