BOB... Baby on Board

It was time to give in... I've wanted a BOB for sooo long, and we were able to borrow one from a friend for our camping trip. That is when I realized how useful and wonderful the BOB is and how much we needed one. After all those years of babysitting, I knew in the back of my mind that I would really want one but when it came down to it and after I realized how much they cost... I thought I could survive without one... but come on... who can survive without a BOB? When I heard the new version was coming out for 2011, I was in there... but right when I needed one the most... everyone else apparently needed one too. There seriously wasn't a BOB in sight. I was put on the waiting list for mid August. Well, mid august came and went... but early September was here :)
A much needed lunch date with my Dad and a stroll in the new BOB was planned. Copper couldn't wait to try it out. We picked it up from Chicken Little and the employees there graciously set it up for us. A previous customer who had the Orbit stroller had used the Graco stroller adapter and said it pretty much did the job, so we went with it... it was a little bulky but let's just say Copper is now riding in the Cadillac of strollers :)

We had to try out the new digs... so we parked far away and walked to the pier. Wrong weekend to walk to the pier... Labor Day Weekend... Everyone had the same idea we did. Fish n' Chips hit the spot.

YUM....

Much needed Gramps time

And chocolate for the finale of course...

Copper was guarding his new ride...

Both of us needed a nap when we got home... but of course little C was not feelin it...
The next best thing was mommy happy hour at our old neighbors' house Tony and Renee. They have three.. yes... THREE kiddos. Sophie (6), Brianna (2) and Luke (3 months). I used to teach Sophie ballet and when we moved in across the street we were fast friends. It was also nice being preggo together for those nice neighborhood walks. They now live out in Goleta but clearly the BOYS will be great friends too. Distance makes the heart grow fonder...

relaxation...

Kayda had a blast too... or Sophie had a blast dressing Kayda up...

Now its bed time... AND Copper is sleeping through the night like the Angel he is... 7pm-7am = happy mommy :)
