Chillin in the Chilly Park

Dear Baby Trip,

What a fun day we had today! We met up with your friend Lily and her Big Heads at The Beach Chalet, ocean front tourist trap extrordinaire, where they were hosting a Save The Ocean type benefit for families. They have a big, green back lawn that was filled with screaming rugrats (I mean frolicking children) and a kids' band whose repertoire ran the gamut from the catchy "Peanut Butter and Jelly" song to "We Want the Funk." We spread out some blankets, had some snacks and drinks and played and danced. We barely noticed it was about 60 degrees and foggy as all get out. Mama took you to the front for a bit and you rocked out to the beats and loved watching the other little kids wiggle around. I knew you had it in you, T.


Dada and Uncle Bobby deep in conversation about strollers or nap schedules.


Some call it a chocolate, marshmallow, caramel and graham cracker crumb covered apple. Others just wish you would stop talking and show respect for the most ingenious thing you can do to a piece of fruit.


Why Mommy, why???


"A priest, a rabbi and a camel walk into a bar..."


Child free humans' worst nightmare.


Raspberries are my specialty this week.


Four tushies.


Shout out to the Crazy Dutchie side of the Fam.


Ahhh...summer in San Francisco. At least we don't have to worry about the chemicals in sunscreen irritating your skin.

Meanwhile on the home front:


This book is FASCINATING Mommy.


This fun activity....


...Begets this not so fun result.
