Back From the Beach

Last week we joined my parents for a vacation at Venice Beach, Florida. We had so much fun! For some reason, fossilized shark teeth have found their way to Venice Beach and all you have to do is look really closely to find them. That was a great part of the trip. We mostly just relaxed, ate, read, and did almost nothing. It was nice and much needed for everyone.


Oh yeah, we played pool too!



The shark teeth and maybe other fossils?


On our last night in Venice Beach we ate at the Italian American Club. We were by far the youngest people there, but we ate like kings for eight dollars a person!

I Pick My Battles

Mary Kate has decided that she loves her swan float which she named "duck." She takes a bath with it and wants to sleep with it- but I had to draw the line somewhere. The thing is just to large to sleep with her, so we compromised. I put the "duck" to sleep on the floor next to her crib and cover it up with a blanket.

Ahh, the joys of toddlerhood. :)
