Happy Birthday, Papa :)

Today was Neddie's birthday! To celebrate, we went off on our FIRST ADULT EXCURSION since the baby was born. It's been almost seven months since Ned and I did anything together without the baby. My mom came to babysit while we went to Ocean Beach, one of our favorite neighborhoods. We scoped out some record stores, antique stores and then had some awesome fish tacos. It was just a few hours, but really nice to hang out together sans R. (Of course we missed our little man!)

I got Neddie the new Wanda Jackson/Jack White album, which we listened to a bit this morning. R has been showing less signs of teething pain, so the last few days have been much easier with him which has been really nice. He has been laughing so much!

Also, today he kinda waved "bye bye" to Grammy. He put his little arm out to mimic us, so I'd bet a real wave is not too far away - how cool s that?!

Finally, I was doing some light cleaning in my office and came across a set of Mickey Mouse ears Ned and I bought for Lucky when he was a puppy. (Haha! We are insane!) Of course, him being a dog, he never had much cause to wear them, but they fit Rutherford just fine!
