Hello all. Dexter's hair is growing a little bit. It is, shall we say, getting a little thicker, maybe a little longer, but definitely thicker. Here, if you look carefully, you can see the wind blowing through his long and luxurious hair while we walk through the Trader Joe's parking lot.



Mister D loves the girls in uniform. And obviously, the girls in uniform love him too as evidenced by this San Francisco police officer.



Here's a cute video (from mid-May) with our little Dexter playing around a trunk that we have in the living room. You could say that this is up close and personal with the D-Unit.

Dexter just realized that it's been almost two weeks since the last blog post. Boy was he ever surprised. He wants to wish all the lolos/dads/fathers/pops/grandfathers/grandpas a belated Happy Father's Day!



It doesn't need to be said that being parents nowadays makes us a thousand times busier than before Dexter joined our little family. That said, Dexter is becoming quite handy around the house. He's gotten into the habit of crawling into the freshly washed and dried clothes and to help sort out the laundry. By sorting out, I mean he proceeds to toss the clothes out onto the floor in no particular order.



Oh, and summer has just begun. Dexter LOVES fresh fruit. Mangoes, papayas, oranges, plums, nectarines, pears...you pretty much name it and he'll eat it. Right now he's on a peach kick.



We went for a bicycle ride in the Berkeley marina area and came across this cool little playground. Unfortunately, Dexter was not pleased, but he did poke his head out of this cool looking castle with turret.



As I've mentioned before, it's difficult to capture Dexter smiling in a decent photo. He smiles a lot. And when he smiles, it just makes everything in the world alright. If we had a busy day and we're super tired, seeing him smile makes it all worth while.

We've decided that we should add at least one picture in a post of Dexter from a year ago. So for your viewing pleasure, here's a picture of Dexter from June 2006.



Dexter has gotten sick of having to listen to his Mom and Dad and so Dexter declared that he wanted his own space. Luckily, Mike and Nelson heard about Dexter's dilemma and promptly gave him his own bachelor pad, or in this case, his own castle. If you look closely, you can see Dexter's lips uttering, "King of the castle, king of the castle" as he shuts the door to any outsiders.



I guess Dexter's door doesn't lock cause his mom made her way in. She promptly told him to clean his room, er, his castle up.



Last weekend, we went to Uncle C.J.'s house. It was a fun day cause we got to swim and just lounge around. Uncle C.J. took us out to brunch. We turn our backs for a second and Dexter gets into a little bit of trouble. Looks like Santa Clara Police Department had their eye on Dexter.



In Alameda, there was a sand castle building contest. It was pretty neat to see all the families building sand castles, but it was even better to see this:
