Labor Day Weekend

Agnieszka did not have to work Labor Day Weekend and we choose to do a Family "Staycation".

On Saturday, we went down to Alvarado Park, looking - prematurely it turns out - for acorns and chestnuts. Fortunately, we found many other treasures, which Auggie carried in his bucket and then got to throw into creek.  We've spent many days at this little spot by the creek with Auggie and it's been fun to watch how Auggie's play in this spot has changed over time.






The next day we went to the Bay Area Discovery Museum, which continues to an incredible place for kid fun, creativity and learning.  We've been coming since Auggie was a toddler.  We realized that Ella has just almost old enough to start crawling around the Tot spot, just as Auggie has grown within an inch of no longer being allowed in that part of the Museum.  

While Ella napped, Auggie played in the fish run (sorry no pics) as if he was 2 again.  Afterwards, we went to the indoor water room, where Ella got to crawl around and lay on a waterbed while looking up at real fish swimming above her.  We spent a very activity full day at the museum and even got to have our pictures taken (into direct sunlight, hence the squinting) with Llama Llama. 








After our busy day at the museum, we stopped for an early dinner at a local Rugby Pub (and hidden Point Richmond gem).  Ella - true to form- had one of her rare poops just as we arrived. This little girl has an uncanny ability to ONLY poop when out an about, usually at a restaurant, store or long trip!
