March of the Penquins

Last Saturday we joined the other SF Zoo members for the annual March of the Penguins event. So much fun. Every year the zoo celebrates the new penguin chicks' graduation from "Fish School" to their new home on Penguin Island. You can read more about it here.

Jack and Nora LOVED it!

RJBs Stache

Rob explains his 'stache to the professional community at HogeFenton:

"A few of you may or may have not noticed the beginnings of the sweet moustache sprouting on my upper lip. The reason behind the grooming change is not because of a career change to law enforcement or a foray into 1970's porn it is to support a global movement that is bringing much needed attention to cancers that affect men. Apparently this started in Australia and they call a moustache a "mo" down under hence "Movember".

Anyway, a friend of my wife's at Adobe is a testicular cancer survivor and has been cancer free for one year and has a baby on the way. He is raising money for the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Lance Armstrong Foundation. My wife has joined his "team" and a link to make donations to the cause is included below. I am showing my support by growing a moustache during the month.

The point of this e-mail is to mostly explain why I am growing a moustache but any support you can provide is much appreciated. The link is http://us.movember.com/mospace/7270/"

Please go to http://us.movember.com/mospace/7270/ and give what you can to Team Manscapers! Click on the "Donate to me" button :)

Part 1: Fun Things for the Kiddos to do in the Bay Area

When you have toddlers, every weekend is consumed with finding ways to keep their thirst for learning quenched. RJB and I have actually become quite adept at "changing it up" every weekend with something new and fun for them to experience. So I figured I'd blog about it and share our faves here, as well as share places we've heard or read about that we hope to check out soon. This is Part 1 (since there are sooooo many places to share, it needs to be broken up into parts - this is why I LOVE Cali!).

Monterey Bay Aquarium

* GET THE MEMBERSHIP!!! It's $150 for the whole family. Go twice and the membership has paid for itself. Plus you get to partake in special events only offered to members, the aquarium opens earlier and stays open later for members only, and members get to experience sneak peaks at new exhibits.

* It's perfect for toddlers - they can run, explore, and touch. There are many fun activities to keep them busy and engaged, plus several different play areas with slides, things to climb on, tunnels to walk through. There's even a little gated toddler area where they can don water-proof aprons and play with toy fish in the water. This area also has a waterbed-like thinga-ma-jig where they can jump and bounce. Fun - I wish I was a toddler :)

* Jack's favorite exhibit: The Outer Bay

* Nora's fave: The Kelp Forest

* Taylor's fave: The Jellies
