A LONG Overdue Update...

It has been a REALLY LONG time since I have updated the blog... life has just been busy-- good, but busy! Here are some pictures of what we have been up to the last few months... and I will try & update more regularly for the 5 people the read our blog :-)

Dylan visited the dentist in the last few months-- the kid LOVES the dentist. He started visiting the dentist earlier than most kids due to a fall that injured his front tooth, which has actually been great because he has no fear of going now. It also helps that Auntie works for an oral care company & provides my kids with an endless supply of toothbrushes & other goodies :-)

 In late February, Dylan woke up one morning screaming that he couldn't walk-- and he literally wouldn't move! Which for anyone who has ever been around Dylan, knows that is quite bizarre. We spent a couple of days in the doctor's office/hospital ruling out various conditions. Mitch was in NY and it was a bit scary, but thankfully Dylan is okay and they think it was just a viral infection that caused his hip & knee joints to get severely inflamed.

On March 12, Savannah's elementary school had their annual fundraiser-- The Red & White Affair at Silverado Vineyards. I chaired the non-wine donation and the event was a huge success, raising $91,000!! Mitch's parents, sister & brother-in-law were all able to come help support Yountville Elementary-- here is a picture of us all enjoying the night.

Savannah had "Crazy Hair Day" at school in March...

Dylan got a new pair of Vans-- which he is SO excited about, for a few reasons. #1-- Daddy has the same pair, which is super cool. #2-- he can put them on all by himself, which he is pretty darn proud of. We found him the other night sleeping like this ;-)

Dylan & Gianna are becoming good buddies. Gianna has been spending Mondays over at our house with Dylan and Melissa (our wonderful nanny) & she recently got to have a sleepover too! She is the sweetest little girl and the kids love having her over-- cousins are so fun!!

Savannah discovered rock climbing! One of her friends had a birthday party at a local rock climbing spot here in Napa recently. Savannah was really hesitate to try it, but once she got up there we couldn't get her down-- not even for birthday cake!!!

Both kids started taking gymnastics on Saturday mornings. Savannah LOVES it-- although she is not the most graceful creature. The poor girl is just so darn lanky and hasn't quite figured out how to make her long limbs work  in unison. Of course she has no clue how awkward she often looks & gives it her all with a big smile :-) Dylan is also enjoying gymnastics. The first few classes were a bit rough & he had a hard time sitting with his class, but he has gotten so much better AND it is such a good way for him to burn off some of the endless energy he has!!
