Dana Point

Tuesday we went to enjoy Dana Point. Although the weather was Bright, Hot and Sunny in Hemet it was just the opposite at the Beach. It was overcast and windy. We didn't even get Zach dressed in his swim suit.

So instead of going to the beach area, we went to the bay instead. We had fun watching the waves crash on the rocks and looking at all the boats.

There we a lot of boats passing by and Zach was enjoying it. One of his favorite books right now is a Sailing book he got from his cousin Jake's birthday party.
Zach tried to FEED the pigeons rocks. He saw them pecking at the ground and eating stuff so he thought they were just eating the little rocks.

He enjoyed chasing them around.

Instead of enjoying the actual beach we had fun enjoying the coastline. We drove on Pacific Coast Hwy to enjoy the view and checked out all the million dollar homes.

1st Time to the Beach . . . . This YEAR

We were excited to take Zach to the beach. When we got there it was overcast and kind of cold, but that didn't stop us.

Zach got his Sand Toys and was ready to go. Except one problem. He didn't care too much for the sand.

But Started to get the hang of it.

He loved the park at the beach
And had a blast on the swings

We will try again next time to get him to love the beach.

(He didn't care much for the water either.)

1st Day of Summer

On the First Day of Summer we had to Celebrate by getting in the pool!

OK so Zach and his friend Michale got in a tiny pool
That squirted Water!

In the Front Yard!

That's right the front yard. It's the only place we have grass and thought it would be nicer for the kids.

(Normally we just have Zach in his pool on the patio in the back yard.)

Then the boys got to go for a wagon ride around the block.

We each took turns pulling.

They had a lot of fun.

We ended the day doing some BBQ!

Fun with Cousins

This last picture is deceiving. Koda never lets Zach sit on her, but was letting Jake sit on her all day. Zach tried it and actually got on her. I was amazed that Koda stayed. Then all of the sudden she gets up and Zach goes right over her and head first into the concrete. Not Fun.

At least the rest of the day was fun. Zach got to play with his cousins Sam and Jake and he didn't want them to leave.

Popsicle Fun

Sam, Jake and Zach enjoying Popsicle's on a Hot Summer Day

Zach's loving it a little too much!
It's getting ALL over him

Just look at my sticky little boy!

He LOVED it!

Shoes to Big?

I'm amazed he can even walk in these!

Camping

We went camping two weekends ago and had a lot of fun. We ate dutch oven beef pot pie, dutch oven pineapple upside down cake and then smores. For breakfast we had blueberry pancakes, sausage and fresh eggs.

We usually always go camping by ourselves, but this time we were joined by friends Sam and Stephanie and their son Michale. I really enjoyed having company.

Our campsite was nice. We went to this place above Lake Elsinore and camped in the clouds. I didn't like the people who came to party, who were playing there Loud music until who knows when. (If I wanted that i could have just stayed at home) At least it didn't keep Zach awake. It was cold at night so Zach slept with us. Trying to sleep with Zach in my sleeping bag on a queen size air mattress is not fun (I'm used to a Cal King for just Jake and Me) We ended up getting some sleep though.

The only pictures we ended up taking were of the food that we cooked. And then we captured this classic moment of poor Zach. He had just fallen down in the dirt. He had a runny nose at the time. It looks a lot worse than it was.

"Camping is so hard"

Del Mar Fair

(aka the San Diego Fair)

The animals were Zach's favorite part of the Day

Is that a Llama?

Not so sure

"Lick Me!"

(he wants all animals to lick him because his doggies do)

"Is that Sheep?"

So excited

He actually pet it nicely

"Your taking too long Mom and Dad"
Too much to see, not enough time

We went to the Fair on $3 dollar Tuesday this last week. It was a lot of fun. We enjoyed some fair food, like a funnel cake and a Strawberry Julius (which Zach didn't want to share). We went to a lot of booths and bought some sheets for our Cal King Bed for $25 dollars. Great Price for Egyptian Cotton 1000 thread count. We saw the Hypnotist show, which was soooo funny. And we met up with Mandy's sister and her three kids to enjoy the animals.

Slurpee

What's a better way to spend a HOT afternoon than with a Slurpee

It was Zach's first Slurpee
And he didn't want to share!

Car Wash

Never to young to learn!

Zach is such a good little helper
"This brush is Heavy!"

Asking "why aren't you helping Mom"

Time to spray it off. "Give me the hose Dad"

Good Job Drying Zach!

It was so cute watching Zach trying to help his Daddy wash the truck. The wheels are as big as him.

22 weeks

I'm one week behind. Now I'm 23 weeks and a little bigger.

TV is better watched with Friends

Water, check. Gold Fish, check. Knock over a cusion to sit on, check.

Spending time with my friend Gid was a blast.

Pool Side

Dad got out the pool for me to play in. I LOVED it.

I splashed and played so much.

Koda even got to play. I would throw her ball in the pool. . .

. . . and she would jump in and get it.

I had so much fun with my Daddy.
