This week we took Ewan to a special showing of Finding Dory at Pixar Studios in Emeryville, he loved the movie again AND was happy to get to take his Baby Darby this time. The sculptures on campus blew Ewan's mind and he loved hearing the people that worked on Piper (the short at the start of the movie), and Finding Dory, talk about the creation process and seeing some behind the scenes footage. The proceeds of the ticket sales benefited the Monterey Bay Aquarium, which added to the awesomeness of the night! As we were leaving Ewan said, "When their next movie comes out I am gonna see it here!"

2 years and 4 months! Summer is almost over and we are all wondering where it went, but all of our tanlines surely show we have enjoyed the season. DeeDee has become a fearless swimmer and while there is no shortness of sassy she is definitely overflowing with manners as well, yelling "bless you" from the office when she heard Mama sneeze. Time is feeling really fast these days...

Do this week's photos confuse you? Yeah us to... turns out Ewan wanted to transform himself, and his Baby Darby of course, in to cheetahs! Turn your back on this one for a few minutes and you end up with a house full of wildlife.

With a big brother that loves to bowl it was only a matter of time before Darby took on the pins herself. She insisted on carrying that bright green six pound ball to the ramp herself and did a great job, and all of her toes survived! Although slightly embarrassing to admit, it requires documentation, that Ewan and Darby beat Mama and Daddy through 7 frames of our first game.

Lionhearts is a sports program that the kids have once a week at school. Ewan always tells us random tidbits, but Darby is not really old enough to tell us much about it, but this week's photo is proof she loves it!

Supporting Ewan's goals is important to us. His current professional goal is to be a Ghostbuster so of course we took him on a date to see the new movie, according to him it is "the sometimes scary one with all the girls." He obviously couldn't be bothered to look away from the screen.

This post was delayed a week as we were exploring Cabo San Lucas when Darby turned 2 years and 3 months... this photo was therefore taken a few days late and Darby is obviously tanner, blonder, and more relaxed!

Ewan has added Mexico to his list of favorite places. He loved the sunshine, the smoothies, and the slide... not so loved was the constant sunscreen application. In this week's photo Ewan is proving to us that he is tall enough, but not too tall, for the slide!
