Sophie

In addition to 3 hours of preschool every morning, Sophie does a toddler group once a week at Scarlett's old school. A toddler group is when the little ones all play in the preschool environment, but the mums have to hang about and chat about child rearing experiences.
Afterwards we often go to the bluffs so Sophie can practice her football skils.

November 1st 09, the last day (so far) we went to the beach. We sort of went in the water, but it was really cold so it was a quick dip.

brunch with CQ

We went to the Inn of the Seventh Ray in the canyon outside Malibu. It was a very pretty spot next to a tiny river. CQ had the poached eggs on bean stew (very tasty in case you were in doubt) and Mummy had the wild mushroom and rocket flat bread. Yum. Afterwards we headed on to Zuma beach for some sun and wave action.

Halloween night itself

Santa Monica beach with CQ

Day before Halloween, it was pretty nice. Not quite warm enough to swim but good sun bathing weather.
