Summer Roundup

Between all of the birthday posts, we were enjoying the dog days of summer

First, we took a trip to DC that involved family time, conferences and sightseeing.  Milan and mom went first and spent a day at the air and space museum and seeing the sights.




 Dad and Kirin came next and we enjoyed some quality cousin time



We even got the whole Goda family together one evening


Kirin got to see some sights too at the museum of natural history via metro




Milan tested his hand at spoons and enjoyed every minute with family from up and down the east coast



 We came back and did a joint birthday celebration where a kid can be a kid




And then spent the day before school started at Gilroy Gardens for one last hurrah


Milan on his first day of first grade!


Kirin moved up a room in daycare too and is learning some new skills



 School may have started but there was still fun to be had!  We enjoyed labor day weekend with a ferry ride to Alameda and some frolicking on the beach in Pacifica







Kirin is enjoying some figs right off the tree


Happening upon a splash pad in San Carlos


Kirin perfecting his :man-shrugging: face


And the first official weekend of fall was spent seeing the sea lions at fisherman's wharf, snoozing in the stroller, and drinking out of toilets at the exploratorium

Kirin at 3 Years

Kirin is 3 years old!  



Don't let that charm fool you, here he is when something doesn't quite go his way


 Brothers, sane and crazy




Birthday treats at daycare (loyal readers will notice the complete lack of ingenuity in wardrobe selection three years later) 
Not only are the clothes the same, so is the classroom and 2 of the teachers!



After birthday treats, we took a joy ride on the Marguerite shuttle and played by the fountains




And now the world premiere of Kirin's first birthday interview!
 

This ends the monthly blog posts on Kirin's monthiversaries but fear not - periodic blog posts will continue!

Milan at 6 Years

Can't believe this kid is 6 and a full head bigger than the quilt



Two days after his birthday, Milan lost his first tooth!




Six-year-old photo shoot, featuring one less baby tooth





And the long-awaited 6-year-old interview
