Lemme out!

Beck's been loving spending time outside and thankfully the weather is
getting better so we don't have to suit up in rain gear to get out!

Sunny day!

It was 65 degrees in Issaquah today. Bright and sunny, perfect day for
a walk. Beck went up and down the street with his little cart and into
several neighbors driveways. He even went up to 2 of their front doors
and said "hi"! Our little social butterfly.

Baby!

Our great friends Sarah and Craig welcomed their new baby boy Isaiah
to the world this week. Beck loved seeing him and kept saying "hi"!
So sweet.

Bedtime hyper

Shot this tonight just a few minutes before Beck's bedtime. Very riled
up boy. Managed to get a "hi" and a "bye"!

Thrift store shopping for Miss Antiquity

Meg and I went thrift shopping at Value Village in Redmond last
weekend to find a costume for her upcoming school play "Heehaw
Hayride". She'll be playing a 150 year old hillbilly woman named
Antiquity Wormwood. This wig has nothing to do with that of course-
was just for fun!

Another trip to the Dr

Our peds office has chalkboards in each exam room and Beck and Meg
were taking advantage of the free time. Shows just how tall our boy
has grown!

Victory!

I found a way for Beck to eat his veggies- by covering them in
spaghetti sauce! For the first time in awhile, he ate 1/2 cup of
broccoli, asparagus and peas. One small bite of lunch for Beck, one
big veggie victory for mommy!

I get it now

I used to wonder if all of those "rides for a quarter" plastic cars,
trucks and random animals in malls were worth anything to anyone? This
week Beck has "ridden" (a loose term for getting on while mom watches
and doesn't spend a dime because he's just as amused for free) 6 of
them! Must find inside, toddler stimulating entertainment during so
many months of rain!

I think I hear the ocean...

We went to Meg's speed stacking meet today and Beck got a little
distracted by the props. (see "speed stacking" on YouTube). Meg was
glad for the support!
