When not on the boat, they are staying in a cool old 1 bedroom house in Balboa down by the Wedge that Mark's cousin owns as their beach casita. His father built it 80 years ago when there was only 2 other houses on the block, total cost: $2900 - I couldn't imagine being on Balboa Peninsula when houses weren't inches apart and into the multi-million dollar range. Must have been really cool back then, cause even with all the crowded houses and people now its still very nice!
Juli and I are getting into the groove of things with two kids, it's not so hard... I've even been able to get more surfing in the last two weeks than I can remember. It also helps that it's October, the weather is great, the waves have been really fun and Juli has been very accommodating in letting me get out of the house. I figure since now I'm so old and all, I'm going to have to keep surfing so I don't turn into a fat slob, because there's pretty much no way I'm going to be doing any other sort of exercise.

Here's Lila sunbathing down in Balboa. More pics next time.


























In less than a week from today, Juli and I will be the proud parents of Ms. Lila Dove. Who would have thought that I'd have two kids by the time I was thirty? Not me! I always knew I wanted kids some day, but I really didn't think it was going to happen this quickly... Juli is a trooper for putting up with all the crap that comes with being pregnant... She's been feeling pretty good lately, all things considered. As we get into the home stretch for number two, it all becomes pretty surreal. Only a few more days left to get stuff ready for another baby in the house! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
