March for Babies

I am happy to announce that Joe, Sody and I are going to do the March of Dimes "March for Babies" event again this year! We did the march in Sacramento two years ago when Sody was a teeny tiny thing and had a great (inspiring, exhilarating, fun) time. Now we are going to tackle the S.F. walk at Fort Mason on April 30 and I am really looking forward to it. 6 miles! It'll be interesting to see how much of it Sody will want to actually walk.

If you want to find out more or donate to the cause - or even walk with us! I swear it's fun! - check out my fundraising site: www.marchforbabies.org/aliciapeterson

Thanks!!

Monterey Interlude

After our hospital visit of the last post - like, literally, 12 hours after - Sody and I headed to Monterey. Why, you ask? Well, I unexpectedly found myself with no babysitting work for the week (Random Event #1) and my parents just happened to be in Monterey for a little romantic getaway (Random Event #2). Since those two random events rarely happen at the same time, we decided to take advantage of it and crash my parents' party. We lived it up: getting soaked at the beach and eating fancy food and sleeping on the floor of the fancy digs and Sody making her first trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Thanks for letting us ruin your romantic weekend, Grandma and Grandpa! We loved it.
