A busy day

Today was so much fun.  The sun was shining as if to skip spring and launch into beachy summer bliss.  Abigail and I started out in the morning with our neighbors and friends on a wagon ride to the beach, followed by the park, and lunch at a local burrito stop.  My big girl sat in the high chair eating a black bean, brown rice, and cheese kid burrito.  The sight of her little mouth opening wide to take a big bite is truly priceless.  (For some reason I love to watch toddlers eat.  Their tiny hands are so cute putting food in their mouths.  It always makes me smile.)

An example
After showing off her slide and play house to her little friend upon arriving home, we settled in for nap time, reading books and falling asleep together on the floor of her room with pillows (her new favorite thing to do).  After nap time we stopped by the park to meet up with her favorite play pal, then headed back home for another beach trip in the wagon with another sweet little girl from playgroup.  We were outside ALL day, enjoying the sun and spending time with fun people.  Now, if only I could find a way to participate in national margarita day!

On a very serious pony ride at a neighbor boy's birthday party.  She still points and says NNNNNEIGH every time we pass their house.

We LOVE to have family visitors -- she talks about them for weeks afterward by pointing at them in the family photo

  1. Completely precious. I love the one of David and Drea running out of the water with the kids and the one of Abigail smiling with a bow in her hair. LOVE!
