Sandbox

Parenthood is about sacrifice, right?
So, for my baby bejos, I sacrificed a garden bed to create him his very own sandbox. It pales in comparison to the sandbox I had as a kiddo, but hopefully this simple gift will too consume hours of digging and flooding and sculpting and burying....that is when he stops eating all the rocks and sand that his chubby little hands can hold!

Fieldtrip

This weekend we hit the road to check out the Fossil Creek Creamery. The baby goats were cute,  friendly, and hungry but more importantly the fresh goat cheese foods were delicious. Cheese, fudge, yogurt...yum!

Egg Crawl 2011

Baby bejos was invited to his first Easter egg hunt!

 At first neither knew quite what to do,

 but eventually they got the hang of it

even if most of the eggs ended up cracked and ready for egg salad!

 These two little ones even interacted with each other a few times

when they weren't practicing a moment of quite in the green, green grass

A warm sunny send-off

Some say the southwest is too warm.
I say bring it on...I am so ready for summer and sunshine and yes, HOT temperatures.
Our goodbyes were said down south where these two little tykes tolerated a car ride, a  trip to IKEA, Trader Joes and Changing Hands bookstore before settling in for a dip in the pool.

Baby bejos already misses his cousin who kept him company in the backseat of the car sharing sippy cups and cheerios.

A day at the playground where the biggest attraction, by far, was the woodchips.

Picnic in the park

We traveled to the sunny southern region for a lovely creekside picnic

Celebrating the Seder

We had the pleasure of joining our friends for their seder celebration this week. We did the "fast track" version but had all other mandatory elements, even the gefilte fish.
