Auntie Annie pretends she's terrible with kids but we know the truth.

Happy 1st Birthday, Asher!

According to Korean tradition (although we are not Korean), Asher will be a ROCK STAR when he grows up (because he chose the drum first, of all the objects placed in front of him).

Getting a little help from big brother Corbin.

He apparently liked the cupcake, even though it was made of applesauce and not much sugar....

Sausalito

Today we visited friends in Sausalito. Corbin loved looking at the water and the boats.

Here's Asher with windblown hair.

Trying to smile

So I wanted to take a photo of Corbin playing with his little matchbox car, because it was such a quintessential image of boyhood.

But then Corbin noticed and decided to smile for the camera.

Happy Birthday Auntie Annie!
