Date Night

Husband and I actually went out without Nuggs.  I think some people call it a date, but I don't really remember because it has been so long.  We headed to Seattle for a Mariner's game.  Even had a drink.

And I am pretty sure the lead singer from an 80s band was sitting behind us.  That might have been the highlight of the evening, husband secretly trying to take pics of crazy hair guy.

You Go Girls

Happy 40th Anniversary Title IX.  Thank you to all the women who fought for the right to play.

Day at the Park

We had a little family play time at Chambers Bay.  I think it might be our new favorite park.  If only it were a bit closer.  Saylor romped in the grass and pushed her own stroller around, we hit the beach for some porpoise sightings and then ended it all at the playground.  Needless to say, Nugget was one tired kiddo.

                                                                             

Family Time

Had a little lunch date with Uncle JP and Aunt AlexAnn today.  JP taught Saylor how to throw rocks.  Thanks for that.

Beach Bum

On a day like today, there is nothing better to do than hit the beach.  Saylor is a huge fan.  She loved watching all the kiddos, pointing to the airplanes flying overhead and the crows scavenging for food.  But there is nothing better than eating sand.  Seriously.  She shoveled that stuff in by the handful.  

Let Me Out!

She would love nothing more than to break through the screen door and crawl her way to freedom.  I wonder if the neighbors are afraid of this scary face?  

Baby Steps

The little red push wagon has arrived!  With the help of handy husband and a very helpful Saylor we managed to complete assembly before bedtime.  I think the pink shoes make her super fast.

Saving It For Later

It is quite possible that we have the messiest eater.  She is now into "dipping".  She dips crackers, fruit, toast in anything else that she is eating.  Yogurt.  Good for dipping.  Pureed veggies.  Super good for dipping.  Graham crackers dipped in yogurt then zucchini is by far the best.  This is why she is saving the graham cracker for later.  Just in case.

Rough Day for the Noggin

Poor Nuggs.  Her giant head had a bit of a hard time today.  There are no pictures to document this day.  I was too busy rescuing Saylor from her surroundings.  First, she was standing, trying to balance with the help of the kitchen chair when it came crashing down on her.  Grandma caught the chair before it could squish her, but Nuggs hit the floor with a bang.  Lots of tears.  No damage.  Only a few hours later, Saylor's curiosity got the best of her.  She put her head through the railing so she could peek down into the play room from the kitchen.  Oops again.  Lots and lots of crying as her head was stuck.  She tried to pull it out but to no avail.  Mom to the rescue!  Turns out the middle part of the railing is wider than the bottom.  Only minor damage...a red mark or two behind her ears.  Hope tomorrow is better kiddo!
