9/17 - Toucan hears a "beep beep"

The BART roadrunner was going so fast, he was a blur!  He said, “Beep beep!” as he went past, but Toucan couldn’t reply or he’d lose the berry in his mouth.

9/14 - Fly Guy and the Daisy Susans

We couldn’t decide if this plant was some kind of daisy or a brown-eyed susan, so we just called her Daisy Susan.   She didn’t seem to mind.

San Francisco is famous for its crooked street, but did you know it has some small crooked buildings as well?  (Let’s not get started on all the crooked and bent people that live here.  That is not a topic for children.)

9/13 - Dolphin and Race Car #8 meet some interesting characters

We had lunch with Rebecca and Charlotte today.  It was a nice sunny day, and we ate on a rooftop garden. Charlotte and I rescued a worm that was wiggling on the hot cement and put him in some nice shady ivy. Hope he’s OK.

Some of the characters I saw at lunch were a little too interesting, so I didn’t take their photos. Dolphin and Race Car #8 liked these guys we found zooming around on the sides of trucks.

This one looked a little sad, but he wouldn't say why.

9/12 - Race Car #8 hits Chinatown

No, not literally.  Literarily!

Here, Dolphin practices jumping through hoops.  Maybe he can teach me to do it more gracefully…

9/11 - Dolphin wants to swim swim swim

We came in to work thinking we had one meeting, but that one meeting turned into four and we have yet to leave the building!  Dolphin was getting restless, so I let him swim in my calendar.  Or is he trying to play chicken with the tall ship?  (Her name is Mir; she’s from Poland.)

9/09 - Weekend fun: Fall Festival Edition

The bathroom renovation continued this weekend (and is finally finished!), but at least we got a good box to play in out of the deal.

We also got some new pajamas from eBay that seemed a lot like race car driver uniforms to us.

Then, we enjoyed running into friends at the Fall Festival.

And hanging out in a police car!  Book 'em, Danno.

9/10 - Race Car #8 crosses the double line for a kiss

I’ve heard of an eye in the sky, but lips?

Later, Dolphin tried race car surfing.  He was dolphinately good at it!  Wheeee!

9/07 - Blue Man Guy finds an alarmingly big mosquito

It looks like a robot mosquito, even!  Yikes!! (It was just a poster – don’t worry!)

Here, Blue Man Guy stopped to sniff these strange pom pom flowers.  He said they smelled like pom poms.  (Of course, his nose is under that mask, so he probably couldn’t really tell.)

Bathroom project update:  We went from complete demolition on Wednesday to this today.

And this is how it is tonight.  We have potty!!  And a structural, but not yet functional sink.  Everything should be done tomorrow and I will do the happiest happy bathroom dance you ever did see.

9/06 - Pink Yoshi loves a bake sale

I was starving this morning, and they were having a bake sale at work.  What a happy coincidence!

Did you see my rainbow and double rainbow pictures from yesterday?

Also, check out how they looked in San Francisco (from SFGate).

9/05 - Hold on, Pink Yoshi!

Doesn’t Pink Yoshi look sweet next to these little flowers?

Whoa!  Motorcycles don’t have seat belts, and this one is off like a rocket!  Hold on!!!!

After Pink Yoshi's hard day, she just wanted to putter around the house...  (help)

And then, on our way to derby practice, look what we saw!  A rainbow!

No, TWO rainbows!!  We are doubly lucky.
