Smiles for Father's Day


This past weekend we celebrated Ryan's first Father's Day.  Harper was so good to her daddy and slept for 8 hours straight!  Sleeping in until 8AM never felt so good.  Harper has grown so much in the past few weeks and is now over 10 lbs!   She has been sleeping and eating a lot more lately and has recently started to smile.

We spent the morning at Chow, our favorite brunch spot in Lafayette and then headed into downtown Danville so dad could enjoy a massage on his special day.  Harper and mom made their first trip to the mall and she did great!  Later that afternoon Harper napped and mom and dad soaked up the sun poolside.  We ended the evening with a trip to "Glamma's" house for a BBQ and some root beer floats with the grandpas.  It was a truly fantastic day.

Ryane's 30th Birthday Surprise

On June 10th Ryane turned 30!  It was an exciting birthday for mommy as she was able to enjoy a wonderful date night with daddy at Esin, a great restaurant in Danville.  The weekend just kept getting better when she got the full treatment at the Nail Shop with all her local girls Saturday morning and then an afternoon surprise party with all her college girls back at the house.  It was a truly memorable birthday and Harper's presence was the icing on the cake!

Harper's Big Weekend

This weekend marked the beginning of summer for the Siegel Family and many exciting adventures to come.  Friday morning dad had to fly to Southern California for business leaving Harper and mom with the house to themselves... Ladies Night!!  Mom's good girlfriends came over for dinner, girl talk and to celebrate Harper who soothed herself to sleep for the first time!

On Saturday, mom got to lay out by the pool and enjoy the last of her "girl" time, working out, doing her nails, and spending quality time with Harper when she wasn't napping.  When dad came home, we all got ready for our first real outing to our monthly supper club.  Harper was a great new addition to the group and everyone enjoyed having her there.

Sunday morning Harper got a chance to go to mom and dad's favorite brunch spot.  We thought she'd like the blueberry muffins, but she ended up napping the entire time.  She was so good at brunch we decided to take her to the Walnut Creek Art and Wine Festival.  We enjoyed the beautiful afternoon people watching and listening to the band.

When we got home it was all about Harper!  She loves her play mat and is beginning to track the different lights, colors and sounds.  After we played Harper and Laney enjoyed another nap outside in the shade while mom and dad went swimming.  It was the perfect end to a wonderful weekend!
