Summer 2

This is us at Sea World. Picture taken by us.
Alex was more content playing in the sand.

Watching Daddy out in the ocean.


Alex is attempting to go out to the ocean with Dad.


This is Alex and Kiersi his best friend!

As summer is coming to an end I guess I'll write about what we have done. We have had the great opportunity to go camping a couple times and we also have been able to go to San Diego with friends. Alex really enjoyed going to Sea World. We were able to go to Sea World three times. Definately able to get our money's worth. We went to Legoland which was fun for Chris mostly. He got a kick out of all the lego people. At Legoland there is a new water park which we were able to go, besides the fact it was cold Alex liked the lazy river. He loved that we were able to build on the tubes. Our neighbor Devin and Chris had fun making towers on their tubes to see who's was tallest. We also went to Coronado island and went to the beach one night but it was freezing. Our husbands went all the way in the water but Cami and I weren't brave enough. Alex and Kiersi didn't brave the water either. They sat and shivered. I am posting some pictures with the kids playing in the sand. Alex had sand everywhere!! He had fun though. While Devin and Chris were swimming in the ocean they saw a small pod of dolphins swimming. It was really cool.
Other than our couple trips we have stayed home and played. Alex loves to be outside no matter the conditions. He loves to play in our pool and he loves to play with the hose. Chris had to take the hose bib off so Alex couldn't turn the hose on. He also loves to be naked, and outside. The first couple times it was embarrassing but now I just try my hardest to keep his clothes on. The neighbors should be used to my streaking son. He must get it from his dad! Ha.. Alex loves to play with his friends. Normally those are his first words in the morning. He asks where all his friends are. We are extremely grateful for our neighbors not only for our friendships but for the kids friendships. I can only hope that they will continue to grow.
Alex is getting extremely independent in some things. He wants to dress himself whenever we change clothes, but along with that he is extremely impatient.

I am a little sad for the changing weather because then we can't spend as much time outside but on the other hand I can get more cleaning done. Since Alex loves to be outside I haven't been the best at cleaning my house. Why is it when you have a home you want to change things all the time. I would love to do lots of things to my house but I don't have an unlimited source of funds so..I just improve it in small ways. Here are some pictures for your enjoyment. The pictures are at the first. Don't understand. Oh well.
