Beach Rookies.

Jer had some stuff to do on Saturday in San Diego so we decided to join him. THings took a little longer then expected so we didn't have a lot of time at the beach. We thought we would just let the kids play and not worry about swim suits-that was our first mistake. Within 5 minutes of being there everyone was wet in some way. New rule-swimsiuts go on when going to the beach. We went on some adventures down the beach, chased the seagulls, made some mud pies, and found seashells and feathers. The kids love the beach! I just wish there was someway to avoid the sand, it drives me nuts!

11 Months...What!

Shake it like the goosey goose, shake it till it's loose, loose, loose. The little song that we sing for the goose. He will start to bounce and dance as you sing it. Goose is 11 Months! I don't think that he knows his name is Logan. We call him goose most of the time. He is such a joy to have in our home. He loves his brother and sister and does this fake laugh when they are laughing and sits and yells "ah" as they run by, loves the stairs and is getting pretty good at going down(still a little scary), is great at finding any toilet lid that has been left up, rubs his belly button and pulls his ears when he is tired and ready for bed, is very helpful with the laundry and prefers to be in the basket pulling the clothes out, is such a daddy's boy, he cries when Jer leaves the room, loves to give kisses, laughs all the time, and is finally sleeping through the night!
Like I said He LOVES to help with Laundry!

S-A-N D-I-E-G-O

This last week Jer had a training in San Diego so we tagged along to get out of the heat. Sadly this is my first time there since we moved here, but it defiantly will not be the last. It was so nice to be out of the heat and be somewhere with stuff to do. Here in the valley there is literally nothing to do! San Diego Zoo We spent a couple of days at the Zoo. I went once alone with the kids and then we went again on Saturday with Dad. Even spending 2 days there we still didn't make it trough the whole thing. It's a good thing we bought season passes.
Birch Aquarium. We spent a day at Birch Aquarium. It was pretty neat to see all the fish. They all sorts of fish and even had an area outside that the kids could touch live ones.
We got over to see the beautiful San Diego Temple.
I took the kids to the beach for the first time. They loved digging in the sand and trying to dodge the waves. If you look in the background of the pictures there are seals on the rock behind them. Logan loved the sand and water which I was surprised. He hates the grass and took a minute to warm up to the sand, but I had a hard time getting him out of it. He did n't even care when the waves came up around him.
It was tough with Logan because he still takes 2 naps, but didn't want to sleep at all in the hotel. Most of the time he would fall asleep in a sitting position. Poor guy so tired. IT was a busy week for all of us. I am glad to be back home in our own beds:) Not so happy to be back in the heat.
