Jeff’s parents came to visit us for a week, from a Wednesday to a Wednesday. Jeff took that week off, and i took off Monday to make a long weekend. It was a great visit. We didn’t have too much planned besides to just hang out and enjoy each other’s company — especially a little mister named Vincent.

Jeff and I just bought a new stroller. It is the City Mini GT. Jeff took it out for a stroll around the block.

Vincent fell asleep on his inaugural ride. Must be good!

On Friday, Jeff and the crew came up to San Juan Bautista to visit me at work and have lunch together. Here we are at the office… Vincent’s checking it out as you can see.

We walked over to the mission to enjoy the scenery and have our lunch (sushi for me, sandwiches for others). Vincent even brought his picnic lunch (Peas and corn) too!

It was an extremely warm day… almost too warm. Vincent looks hot here, doesn’t he? We were not dressed right.

On Saturday we took a trip to Dennis the Menace park. Lots of fun there.. it was a gorgeous day.

Vincent absolutely loves the swing. You should see his face light up and his legs kick all over the place when we put him in it.

Everyone looking on at Vinny.

We even met up with Patti who is here visiting for the week as well. Luckily we were meeting up with her because we forgot Vincent’s diaper bag and as soon as we got to the park he pooped! She let us have a diaper and wipes. Patti saved the day!

Sunday morning Mike and i took Vincent for a morning walk, hoping he might fall asleep again, but didnt’ work. Instead he was talking, talking, talking… who knows what he was saying but it was cute.

Later in the day, after i taught my class, we walked over to our neighborhood park across the street and played on the swings and went down the slide. We some a couple other boys close to Vinny’s age. They were all interested in each other.

This slide was kinda fast and scary.

Swings are way too much fun!

On Monday we had planned to go to the circus which was in town for the week — but the 4:30pm show we planned on going to was cancelled. So instead we went to REI to get a hiking backpack for Vinny to sit in when we go on hikes. We tried it out at the store, and Vinny started fussing when we put him in it. I think he was scared.

But once we hoisted him up there he loved it! It even came with a cute teddy bear. Thanks to Grandma Lisa and Grandpa Mike for purchasing it for us. We hope it gets lots of use!

After that we went to Sapporo’s at Fisherman’s Wharf for dinner.

It’s like a Beni-hana were they cook the food in front of you.

Perfect place for a baby to be entertained.

We even ended the night seeing a sea otter in the bay.

On Tuesday, i had to go to work, but the crew hung out at home playing with Vinny. I think Mike did some yardwork outside, and took Vinny for his first stroll in the hiking backpack (just around the block). They also set up Fort Vinny with the baby gate i had purchased a couple weeks ago but hadn’t actually put up yet.

Thanks for visiting us Grandma and Grandpa! We had a blast!
