Fun in the sun: Puerto Vallarta!

Had a great time last week in Puerto Vallarta! It was Coby's first international trip. Besides his antsy-ness on the flights, he did great! He loved the beach and walking along the ocean. He loved swimming in the big infinity pool. It was an off-season so we pretty much had everything to ourselves. Lots of words became common for him to say this trip: "turtles", "ocean", "taxi", "beach", "swimming pool", "kick kick" (in the pool). He also loved playing hide-and-seek and with his trains in the hotel room.

Lions, Tigers, and bears - oh my!

Last weekend we took Coby on his first trip to the SF Zoo. His favorite animal was definitely the train that runs through the zoo. He kept wanting to wait by the tracks to watch the train. When it came by he waved and smiled each time. When he rode the train with Jeff, he didn't want to get off afterwards. He liked zebras but most of the animals only got a few seconds of his attention.

This weekend when we went the highlight was the grizzly bear feeding. They put peanut butter on the window so the bears come right up to you in their hind legs to lick it off the window! Coby was still fascinated by the train.

Looking forward to going again!

Playtime outside

Coby loves to play outside and today we didn't have any plans so just spent a lot of time in the backyard. We took a blanket outside for him to eat lunch on. And took some tennis balls and soccer ball to kick and play with. He also loves climbing in his slide and pulling lemons off the tree. Here are some pictures we took while playing outside!

Goooooaaal!

Coby went to his first soccer practice on Friday! There is a drop-in indoor soccer class for 18 mo-3 years that we thought we would try out since I took the day off. Coby was also lucky to have Nancy come and visit to watch him play! He seemed to like running up and down the field a Iot but still has some work to do on following directions. Overall he had a lot of fun and was very tired afterwards!

Gymboree Play

Sunday was a hot day so we wanted to find an indoor activity. Took Coby back to Gymboree Play to play and take a class. The theme was 'in and out' and they did activities going in and out of things like a tunnel, tube, slide. The class only had him and another girl in it so they pretty much had the whole place to themselves for most of the time. His favorite activity is the parachute followed closely by the tunnel to crawl through. He had fun climbing and playing and took a long nap afterwards.

Swimming!

Coby went swimming a second time on Saturday. This time it was open swim instead of a class so he could spend more time getting used to the water. He seemed to like it more this time and enjoyed chasing balls and rings that Dad would throw. He even responded to 'kick your legs' doing a little frog kick. Progress!

Tunnel time!

Here I come!
