Best Video Ever

Here is the best photo ever.  Fin and I were hanging out in the clubhouse this weekend when Kai walked in and started dancing.  I have never heard Fin laugh so much in our lives!  You have to stop and watch.  We are 5 mths in and they are still the best of friends.

Pool Time!

We got a picture of the Demlers chill'n on the beach this weekend and decided to take advantage of the fun in the sun!

What am I to do, they are just too cute!  Who's in? The water is fine!

Come on, don't you love him!

Man, who is that little man?

On a pool noodle!

Family photos

I broke down and had a family photo shoot in our backyard this weekend.  The pictures came out amazing and I can not wait to send them out to family.

Kai was a great brother helping Fin sit up.  We explored the whole backyard for the best shots.

 

Zoolander

We got it!  Finally, took two kids to capture the look!  I am hooked... I love these boys!

Biker Babe

Hey who's that!  A biker babe...

Genetech Gives Back

We had our annual Company Picnic and this year Ahmad was here to join in the fun.  We took the boys to AT&T park where Genentech celebrates giving back to the community with a concert.  This year the acts were Colbie Coillat, Foo Fighters and Usher!

Fin gets into the fun

One shall not miss a nap

Neither will this one

Let the World Cup Begin

Thank you Uncle Dariush and Aunt Michelle, the boys supported Iran's national team in style.  

Happy Father's Day

Just how daddy wanted to celebrate (Get me the biggest Lobster they have - 6lber there you have it)

Amusement Parks Galor!

So, those who really know us, know Ahmad is just as much a kid as our kids (hence our Animal house).  After having so much fun down in Santa Cruz, the next weekend he was determined to take the boys on more rides.  Santa Cruz was out of the question with Graduation crowds deterring our travel time, so we opted to join California's Great America theme park.

There seemed to be less rides for little ones under 42" tall, but we all had fun and left the park just in time for naps.

Even Fin enjoyed the park!

The cars reminded me of Hershey Park.

Kai was blown away and could not wait to meet Snoopy

He was so proud! 

Brotherly Love

Fin is often ready for his first nap by the time we need to head out the door to work and/ or his last nap on our way home from school/work.  Here Kai tries to teach Fin how much sucking your thumb soothes ones soul.  (Public service announcement: Yes, all hands were washed prior to the taking of this photograph)

Amusement Park Fun

The advantage of having everyone meet us down in Santa Cruz was that we were able to visit the boardwalk.  I have so many fond memories of family trips to the 'Shore' and adventures on the boardwalk.  It was also the first time we had the chance to see how Kai would react to the rides.  His favorite was a dragon kiddie roller coaster with Daddy.  We even got to take him on the log ride, in which mommy held him tight and sacrificed her sweater so Kai would not get wet (yes, the point of the ride).

Our Baby is 4mths!

He just turned four months and we could not be more excited.  While as big as a 8 month old, he is and will always be my baby!

Stats:

Length: 24 inches

Weight: 19.5 lbs

Checks: HUGE!

Did someone say clams?!

We took a day to go down to visit UC Santa Cruz for Leila.  Ahmad and I went down and the grandparents brought the kids down in the afternoon.  We made reservations at the best seafood restaurant in the area to celebrate.

Kai had his first try of clams and he LOVED them.  I think he has more Demler in him than we are prepared for... He also was treated to a kids sundae where he had some ice cream and as he told the waiter " its my favorite".

Both Kids were so well behaved and it was a long day for all.

Steeler Fan in the making

Mim was in town to help us with the transition back to work and two kids!  Of course she had to bring the necessary Steelers gear.  I would have to say that is one Steeler's fan in the making!

First day of daycare

Well I held it together and this time around Ahmad was there for drop off.  Kai also pitched in (toy testing) the hummingbirds new things while I situated Fin.  I so hope he does okay, I miss him dearly!

Looks who is growing up
