An Eventful Two Weeks

Hey there all you Mateo fans. We haven't forgotten about you -- we've just been really busy and haven't gotten a chance to post anything for a while. Here are some highlights from the past two weeks:

We recently got a vest designed to go over the baby carrier so we stay warm, the baby stays warm, and he has a little head space to peak out of. Here's Daddy trying it out. Anita was sure glad she had it the other day, since she was walking down the street and huge brown and orange spider dropped down from a tree and landed on the vest (instead of the baby's head).


Our little pumpkin boy at Halloween. This outfit lasted about twenty minutes.


Last week Jesse had a conference in San Diego and the whole family went so that Mateo could meet more of his family. Here he is with his Great Grandma Barbara Griffin (Anita's grandma).


And here he is with his Great Uncle Jay, who came all the way from Alaska to meet Mateo (and to be with his mom and grandmother during the wildfire scare).


And Mateo's Gemma (Anita's mom Sharon) was so happy to see her one and only grandson again.


Here are the oldest and the youngest family members. Mateo is fortunate enough to have a loving Great Great Grandmother, Margaret Adams.


While Jesse was at his conference, the rest of the fam headed out to Ocean Beach. Unfortunately, it was bad beach weather. But good ice cream weather (it's never too cold for ice cream).


Five (yes five) generations gathered for a photo shoot.


We had a tripod, so we were able to get a photo of all of us together. From left: Great Great Grandmother, Great Uncle Jay, Great Grandma, Grandpa Phil, Gemma, Daddy, Mommy, and sleepy Mateo.

What wonderful photos! It's so nice that you were able to get five generations together. Everyone in the Adams, Griffin, Mann, Zamora, Rissman family looks great! We can hardly wait to get four generations of the Zimmer-Rissman family together next month. Love to all....Savta/Mom/Barbara
