52 : 36 (part 5)
Another stamp in the passport to celebrate Grampie's 70th birthday! 5 warm days in Puerto Vallarta meant a lot of sunscreen, beach exploration, and tons of swim time. The highlights of this trip for Ewan included the water gun that Grampie got him, smoothies by the pool, and getting more comfortable in the waves.

Darby 28/52 v3
This girl's Ariel addiction came to life this Halloween! Darby loved every sequin and every second of being a mermaid.
52 : 35 (part 5)
After months of planning Ewan officially became a Ghostbuster... for Halloween. He loved his Daddy made costume and will likely not want to wear anything else in the foreseeable future.

After months of begging Ewan went to work with Mama again this week... He got the VIP treatment with BART, a trip to the mailroom, unlimited iPad time, kitchen snacks, infinite tape and staples, plus two doggie friends.

Darby my Darling -
2.5 already! I have become that Mama, I know I say this all the time, but I have no clue how time has passed so quickly. This year, 2016 I mean, is whirring by us... Probably because we are having so much fun!
In the last 6 months you have changed so much, but at the same time not at all. You still have an amazing disposition, love school, and play rough, but you are much more verbal, physically capable with things like climbing, and even more stubborn about your independence. You seem to be growing like a weed, but since you are now on an annual schedule with the pediatrician we do not know for sure, but last time you asked to see how strong you were on the scale you were up to 34lbs. You seem to sustain on milk, cheese, yogurt, and bananas these days, but you will occasionally surprise us by requesting three servings of steak.
One thing that has changed this year is that you are much more affectionate, you request cuddles, hugs, and kisses regularly. When you kiss us you grab our cheeks and pull us in to you for a big wet one, which is the highlight of any day and can immediately turn a frown upside down. You continue to be very polite and are the first to yell "bess you" when anyone sneezes. Your go to accessory is sunglasses (aka sunnies), you prefer pigtails, and you are creating quite the tutu collection, you seem to find them where ever you go.
As much as we have avoided pink and princesses we can feel them infiltrating our lives, we still don't offer them, but will not deny your sweet requests... still no Barbies, no way. Your current princess addiction is Ariel from The Little Mermaid, which inspired you to request a mermaid costume for Halloween next week. You also constantly request Ariel's "Part of Your World" song, which you sing along to loudly. Our favorite line in your rendition is "gadgets and gizmos gamore", please never say galore properly... gamore forever and always.

This weekend Ewan enjoyed watching the rain and spending time with his Auntie M! Always up for a fun date, Auntie came over for bowling, arcade games, and pizza.

No better feeling for our Darby to represent on her classroom's emotion board... Although it would be more accurate if it said "HANGRY!"
