In early Septmeber we took a trip to Alki Beach. We hadn’t been there yet since we’d moved but this is one of my favorite places in Seattle. It feels like you’re in California. Dallin was not so impressed with the sand getting all over his hands.
A walk with my little diva would would spend every moment going on walks if she could. An indoor playground at the mall and Avery and Dallin’s favorite thing to do together: Ride in one of those big car shopping carts. It’s so entertaining how excited they are every time.
We went to Clyde Beach Park for Labor day. It’s a really small park. I wanted to go to all the parks in Bellevue this summer and this was the farthest I made it: letter C! There’s always next summer.
The many uses of peanut butter. A stool, a game with Dallin (they like to roll it back and forth) and stacking!
THIS……………………………………….led to………………………….. THIS!
Avery thought it was funny to put all the tupperwear in the oven. We put all the tupperwear away a few times but one time we didn’t catch it before I preheated the oven and all the tupperwear started on fire! I yelled for Bryce to come in and he opened the oven where huge flames sitting on top of blue gooey liquid lept out. He may or may not have sworn. We finally decided the best thing to do would be to evacuate because the fumes were so bad. Once the fire was out and smoking we left but it smelled like burning plastic for days and days and then we spent weeks clenaing it all out!
Did I mention Avery loves to be outside? Even in the pouring rain!
Avery loves to bring random objects to Dallin. He usually loves it too except for when he’s trying to eat.
This was the last time our playgroup went to the beach for the summer. It was a beautiful day and so much fun. I loved how Dallin tried to follow Avery to the playground. He loves his big sister.
Park Time!
The father of the two kids I used to nanny for contacted me to see if I could cover a few days for him while he’s out of town. It was fun for Dallin and Avery to see Luke and Laura again but it sure was exhausting!
Saturday September 19th was talk like a pirate day and if you dressed up like a pirate you got a free box of a dozend donuts from Krispy Kreme. We scrouged up some stuff around the house and dressed up the kids in pirate outfits. Since they were both dressed up we got 2 dozen donuts! It was a pretty fun outing and will definitely have to become a traidtion.
A few more from around the house:
Avery wearing her dad’s socks, loading the dishwasher (but needs a lot of practice) and Dallin getting ready for a bath. Any time he hears the water he comes crawling! He and Avery both love baths and could play in there forever.
