We are so lucky to have had Grammy come and babysit for 3 days this week. Our daycare provider was on vacation, but it turned out to be a forced good thing for everyone! Sierra was able to hang out with Grammy for 3 days, Dad for 1 day and me for 1 day. It was actually a really nice thing for all parties (except for the us paying for the week of non-daycare). Auntie Lyn came over one night and brought us all dinner too! We ended up playing a game of fake volleyball with one of Sierra's beach balls in the driveway after she went to bed. It was actually a lot of fun too.

I got out running with Sierra and the dogs a couple of mornings before work (Gus even joined me once). It is so nice to be able to run off the roads where cars drive (especially when I have over 150 pounds of dog strapped to me and a baby I'm pushing). We were able to spend some quality time with Grammy (Anne) before we both went to work that week too! Sierra and her had fun hanging out together. We also took an excursion to Costco to help buy items for my best friend's wedding. Sierra didn't mind:
Gus and Sierra had fun on their day off together: hanging out around home and going to the pool. Gus couldn't have been happier after spending the day with her. I was equally elated with my day with her on Friday. We hung around home, went to the arboretum to see the horses, played at Roos' indoor play cafe, went to the Raptor Center, the pool, and the library.... phew... maybe too much? But, hey, we had a great time doing it!
Saturday was a well planned trip to go mountain biking (Gus has been repaying me with some of the mountain biking lately). I mountain biked for the majority of the morning while Gus and Sierra hiked around the reservoir. I did shuttle Gus twice at the end too, but really Gus made sure I was able to get some quality ride time in! I only ate dust once-ish.
I gave Sierra a chance to play in the water when we got home.
Gus captured a great shot of "God rays" (a.k.a. there was a fire close by). Beautiful shot.
On Sunday Sierra and I went to Fairytown Land in Sacramento for a friend's 4 year old birthday. We got there when it opened so Sierra could take it all in. She really seemed to enjoy the party although most of the kids were a bit older than her. I did give her cake and a juice box (hey she's going to have sugar sometime plus she does have 9 teeth now!!!).
We all got out on our bikes this morning before work, and generally had a great time (minus a few helmet refusals).
P.S. THIS IS POST 100!!!!
I'm surprised I kept it up this long!
