San Francisco

Sunday marked our first out of town adventure with Ethan. We went to San Francisco for a day trip to cheer on Kelley, who was one of the many (and I mean, MANY) people that ran the Nike Women's Marathon. We are very proud of Kelley and were very happy to go and support her there (even if it was for a short time).

Our trip was marked by a very volcanicly explosive diaper at Casa de Fruta (that goodness we had stopped so I could feed him.), spending an hour trying to find a parking spot, getting there when Kelley had just finished the marathon in 5 1/2 hours (yeah!), Trying to find Jeff amidst the hords of people, and walking through Golden Gate Park.

We had a blast! Traveling wtih an infant is definately more difficult and time consuming, but we plan on taking him on many adventures.

Our Visit to the Pumpkin Patch

We decided to take advantage of this beautiful, although slightly warm, fall day and take Ethan to his first pumpkin patch. I think he would have enjoyed it, but he chose that time to take a nap. He ended up sleeping through the entire thing. We did however have time to take a few snapshots of our little family and lots of fall fun!

Dinner with the Heinrich Family

Jolie's grandma and sister made the trek to California to see Ethan before the midwest is overtaken by their first fall snowstorm. We got the whole family together to take a family picture of the whole family. We just keep growing!

The Heinrich Family Cousins all together for the first time!

Hanging out with the family

Here are some pics of Ethan and his great grandparents at the birthday celebration for Jon's dad Rich and his uncle John. I think Ethan stole the show (just kidding!).

Surf's Up!

Ethan enjoys taking it easy and hanging ten on his tummy time mat. Right now he just sort hangs out and observes the things around him. Sometimes I wonder what he finds so interesting on the wall. He can stare at the wall for a couple of minutes and smile and coo like it is the most facinating thing in the world.

Ethan's first trip to Grandma's

Sunday we spent the afternoon hanging out with my (Jolie) parents, Dustin, Kristal, and Zoe. Our friend's the Fox's stopped by to meet Ethan. It was a lot of fun. We got some great pics of Ethan, Zoe, and Grandma. We are looking forward to getting the other two grandkids in a picture when the whole family can make it to a family dinner.
