For the past four months, we have been living without our dear super cat, who has thankfully been staying with Basia and her two cats.
But, the time finally came for him to move to San Francisco. So, we put him in a bag and carried him on to the plane and he moved into our house. August is so happy to have his cat back. When they lived together four months ago, August called him Eh-ah. In fact, Ezra was one of his first words, after dada (before mama).
So, it makes me laugh that he now calls Ezra, "Dat." (His version of cat.) He walks all over the house, calling "dat? dat?" and when he finally finds Ezra, he kisses him and says: "Hi Dat!"
Here they are bonding (August enjoys bonding more than Ezra):
Yes, I promised many people pictures of our apartment, like, a month and a half ago. But it's just more than I can bear to stick photos for eternity out into cyberspace of a home full of boxes on the floor and absent a dining room table. In other words, we just finished unpacking this past week. So now, I will give you pictures.
Before I do so, I have to give a shout out to my stud of a husband who decided: heck no were we going to buy some bookshelf or shelving unit from Ikea! No, he was going to buy some wood and sand it and drill it into the wall. And, my goodness, he did it.
And that bookshelf looks good. Real good.
Go Christopher! My newly minted woodworker! Now we can seriously move into that commune of our dreams so he can make sausage and wooden sunglasses. Here's our sweet little San Fran home.
Every time we leave the house, August sits on this step and waits for me to open the stroller we carry down. He's a good boy.
Here he is in front of the stairs. Our door is on the far right at the top of the stairs.
The view of our street from where August is sitting. Down one block is Washington Square Park and a lot of cute Italian restaurants and coffee shops.
Our sweet little kitchen.
Our dining room and the table we finally got this past week. Yay! No more eating meals on the couch!
Another view of the dining room.
Our very long hallway, standing in the dining room, facing the front door.
August Henry's little boy room.
Our Craigslist found mid century modern couch and chair...We love them very much though I can't wait for some new, less mustardy upholstery.
The rest of the living room and a good look at those handmade bookshelves. What a man!
Cool picture, August. What is it? Wow, Mama? (Some parts of motherhood have not been good for my self image.)
So happy to finally have carpet to play on in the living room. (Thanks Deenie!)
Daddy made Aug a new chair out of the laundry basket.
After a week and a half of rain everyday (but one), August is getting used to his rain coat.
