Weekends

We've had terrible weather lately ... lots of rain, wind and chilly temperatures.  But with a 2 year old, we still have to go out and do stuff,  so to spice things up, we took Mati to Stinson Beach last weekend to play soccer and have a picnic on the beach.  This weekend, we went to the San Jose Discovery Museum.  We hadn't been there in a while and discovered a whole bunch of activities that we had bypassed before, like the water exhibit.   Despite the overwhelming number of kids, he was very good at sharing and at accepting when we said we needed to move on to something else because we had to make space for other kids.    

Mati was thrilled with the outing.  He is obviously more coordinated, stronger and more aware of his surroundings and of cause and effect.   My sister mentioned on Saturday, when we had dinner at their place, that she noticed Mateo to have grown - he is making longer sentences, using prepositions, and I guess acts more like a little boy.  Time goes by fast ...

Water play ... total joy!

We had to change his apron because he got completely drenched!

There was smoke coming out of the water - here's Mati blowing it away.
