Fun in the FL sun!

Well we are a week or so back from our annual escape to warmer spring weather. We returned from the Gulf Coast last Saturday but I think I'm still warm and tingly inside. I'll provide more pictures than words , but suffice it to say this year must have broken our previous record number of sunny 80 degree days.

To the beach!

We even met movie stars!



A sand fish almost ate Abbie and Jonas. (Notice how eager the younger cousins are to bury the older!?)


But vacation can be hard work too...


On the pier...

Luckly Abbie's "Superman" ice cream matches her outfit. I'm not sure Izzie blinked once during the 42 sec it took her to devour that ice cream.


Bubbles with G&G in pj's. A FL tradiation.


Bliss.


Grandma and Grandpa also took Abbie and Jonas on a pirate cruise!


I'm not sure who had more fun!?


Thank you Grandma and Grandpa!

Ode to our Iz

Well our wee little one has been up to her usual "cuteness" a term that I'll use loosely here to describe her unpredictable, often troublesome, but always entertaining ways. Isabel is going on 18 months and I have to say it's one of my favorite months to date.

In the spirit of toddler games, lets plays "whats wrong with these pictures":

Izzie loves bath time, to the extent that we have to shut the bathroom doors to prevent her return after tub time. What happens if one door doesn't quite latch? Look closely at this picture to find out.



Iz got her first haircut on Saturday. She thoroughly enjoyed the bright yellow car she got to ride in (not pictured) as well a treat... which reminds me.. can you find what's wrong with this picture?


We graduated Isabel to her toddler bed this weekend! She started making the 3 foot leap off the railing during the night anyway so we figured this would ease the exit. There's nothing funny about this picture, but the video reveals an ironic twist.




Finally, here she is after nap today enjoying some arts and crafts. There's nothing strange about this shot (unless you consider she retrieved the playdough herself from from a cupboard with "childsafe lock")... just our darling girl growing up oh so fast. We love you Izzie!

Birthday Boy

Happy Birthday to Daddy! Just a few photos of the celebration - we love you Daddy! It turned out to be a pajama birthday party b/c the girls had been out splashing in the puddles and playing in the rain so needed to have an early bath!

Help blowing out the candles

We went to the zoo (we were one of about 3 families who ventured out on this freezing day!) but it was fun anyway!! We saw lots of fun stuff...

I love mac'n'cheese!
