San Francisco

We headed out to San Francisco to see the newest Robertson cousin, Cecilia, and visit with Rob's two brothers and their families.  The city suits Tate well because the child rarely napped and just kept going full-speed late into the night, every night, without fussing. It was great. I have tons of pictures, so bear with me as I post a bunch....


On the ferry from Sausalito to the city



Visiting AT&T Ballpark. This picture makes me think of "Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil." We're just missing the "Hear No Evil." 


Tate loved chasing his DC cousins Beck and Caroline around the Botanical Garden!


Nice form and follow through, huh? Can you say "scholarship?" 


Walking not-so softly and carrying a not-so big stick. 


Chris and Sarah have a great professional photographer friend who came out to snap some shots of the family and the cousins. For some reason, we chose this moment to let Tate taste an apple for the first time. He liked it so much that he refused to give it up for the pictures. There is no telling how the pics are gonna turn out. Can you say "PhotoShop?" 


San Francisco has the best playgrounds around. Tate took a spin in this contraption at Golden Gate Park. 


We visited the Exploratorium, a fantastic hands-on children's science museum. Tate played in the toddler area and had a ball. I can't wait until he's old enough to try everything else. 



Back at Chris and Sarah's fabulous house in Sausalito, Sarah created a fun Easter Egg hunt for the kids. Although there were gifts hidden throughout the house, Tate was content to play with the plastic eggs. 


Sitting around, opening gifts. It was like a mini-Christmas. 


Tate wasn't sure what to make of tiny Cecilia. 


Love the cheeks! 

Cecilia had the best seat in the house. This window and patio beside her look out over the Bay. What a life! 

Tate met a little girl at the airport who was literally 'chasing some tail.' She really liked Tate. He wasn't so sure what to think.
