Labor Day Weekend Cont.




We had a fantastic labor day weekend. On Saturday Ali got to meet even more of his big beautiful family when we went down to the village in Capitola and hooked up with Greg's cousins and their kids. We checked out the sand castle building contest on the beach but mostly Ali just wanted to chill in the shade and stare at Greg and I.

On Sunday Mimi and I took Ali for a walk down by the water in Capitola to check out the begonia festival. There were not many floats on the river yet but the ones we saw were so vibrant and alive.

We have been working on getting Ali to smile voluntarily and so far it has just been a slew of gassy grins. This morning though, Greg was making faces at him on the couch and he did it! Seeing your baby smile is the best thing in the world. I wish I'd gotten a picture.
