Beach Boys

June 28th, 2009 — 4:20pm

We visited Matthew’s Beach park again this weekend. The weather was lovely and the water had warmed up enough to allow for the boys to…. TOUCH THE WATER! Enjoy the images of their first real encounter with the beach.

They got utterly soaked and covered in sand. It was the world’s best water table! Good thing we have tiny bathing suits handed down to us from Gavin.

Other notable things this week:

- Milo knows where his toes are. And your toes. We discovered this when I asked Milo if he wanted toast and he laughed and pointed to his feet.

- The boys really like spicy food. They rebelled against bland potatoes and toast and I, frustrated, put spicy black beans and SoyRizo on their trays. And they loved it!

- I have discovered a deep and lasting love for baking muffins. We’ve had several batches lately, but the best is this Morning Glory recipe. I swapped the white flour for whole wheat, and cut the sugar in half. Next time I’ll add some shredded zucchini and some chopped dates.

- No more bottles! We finally made the switch to sippy cups. Yay!

- The boys have been watching Michael Jackson videos all weekend with us. Milo’s favorite is Billie Jean from Mowtown 25 and Levi likes Workin Day and Night (there are so many endings to this performance even Michael gets confused!).

Here Comes The Sun

Finally! Seattle delivers a GORGEOUS weekend day. We went to our new favorite park at Matthews Beach to play.

The boys enjoyed rocking on this big-boy plane. Until Levi tried to throw himself overboard.

The baby version of the Indiana Jones bridge was a big hit. They cruised back and forth for 20 minutes. And Levi discovered how delicious the metal chains are. Yum!
