Baby On Tour

Wow, how the time flies! The last few weeks have been pretty eventful for our little family, so I figure it's time to do a little catching up!

First, We got to celebrate with Miss Catherine Drain at her baptism. We had a great time celebrating with her once she woke up! :) It was fun to visit with the Drains, the Moes, Mr. Malone, and the rest of Catherine's family!

One Thursday evening we decided to try and take Jack out to a concert at Todos Santos Plaza. We had a nutritious dinner of kettle corn (when packing up a baby, who can remember to pack a picnic) and enjoyed the great weather and fun music. We also got to meet up with Aaron and Micaela that night for a little bit and introduce them to our little guy.

Then it was on to Pete's company picnic. It was a hot afternoon, but we made the best of it in the shade with a few chilled beverages. Jack got to meet lots of his dad's coworkers and did a lot talking about the future of third party money management! ;)

After that we Hoversens decided to brave a trip to the Oakland Zoo! (Which at Jack's age, was really for mom and dad!) We packed him up and had a great time wandering around looking at the animals and relaxing in the shade. Can't wait to take him when he can actually realize what he's looking at!

Gotta admit...those elephants can be mighty smelly!

The tigers were sleeping, but we got a few snuggles in the shade!

A's representing at the Lion's den!

And finally we got a quick visit from Phil from New York over at Casa de Moe. As an added bonus we got to play with those super cute Moe girls!

After all of that, we ended July with a cold! (Jack's first one, poor thing!) All three of us came down with a pretty nasty bug and spent some time on the couch trying to recuperate. Luckily, we've pretty much kicked it and now we're ready for some more summer fun!
