We visited Jane in her lovely Sukkot house and she fed us yummy harvest treats. Amari is looking a bit distracted by the two dogs who he was concerned about.

The arrival of birthday balloons from Lornie was very exciting and provided lots of fun (closely supervised )play time.

Fiona let us borrow her ball run which has been a fun toy to explore . Not to mention a unstable but fun prop to use to practice deep knee bends.

As with all non-food items the golf ball must be tasted.

Amari has figured out that it is quite fun to catch the ball as it is rolling down the run.

Shaking the ball run back and forth is another very effective way to create lots of sound and action.

Last Sunday (the 5th) Alef and I took Amari up to the North Bay. We visited with our friend Leslie and her puppy Chewbacca.

Although it looks like Amari is telling Dr. Krosen to talk to the hand we actually had a very nice visit and Amari was happy to meet Siri and Mike.

Kyle motivated me to bring Amari to SF MOMA to see some interesting art. We could not take photos in most of the galleries so this is the only image of Amari with MOMA art that I got. I was going to take a photo of Amari looking at a Paul Klee painting but a poopy diaper interrupted the photo shoot.

Now that I am only a week behind on posting photos to the blog I have gone back and added a list of the 97 people we visited with this summer on the farm to the photo of Amari with the sunflower.

In front of a San Francisco art car by SFMOMA.

The bead maze is one of Amari's favorite toys because he can stand up and move things around.
