The weather was beautiful this weekend and we were fortunate enough to have plans for the beach. We stayed at a beach house in Manzanita Oregon with grandpa and grandma Clark and Auntie Kealie and her boyfriend Chris. We came back from one of 3 trips to the beach today and stopped for some ice cream. Jonah pretty much stole my ice cream and had a wonderful time doing so. He is a happy kid. I love this little boy so much.
Jonah loves to help out. Here he is preparing swiss chard to saute and eating the loaf of bread that was meant to be shared by the whole family. We eventually were able to pry the baguette out of his hands while he screamed, "WANT BAG IT! WANT BAG IT ALL OF IT!!!" Even with the bite marks, that Pearl Bakery Baguette was tasty.
. was an hour of fun at Irving Park all together as a family of four. Steering the play structure with intense concentration, traveling through the tunnel on the way to the slide. Then the whole family got on the teeter-totter (or do you call it a see-saw? Is there a difference or is it just a regional thing like the sound a dog makes? Ruff vs. Bark vs. Woof) . Of course leaving such a fun event did not make Jonah a happy boy. But he sure looks funny when he is upset. In fact, feel free to leave a comment stating what you think Jonah would have said at the moment of the picture.
