September Madness

The Boy Gets Older

The 4th.

A few weeks ago Clark and I decided to go eco chic and buy some bikes! We are loving riding around town on them, doing all our errands via 2 wheels. On the 4th we seriously rode our bikes from dawn until dusk. Right when Beck woke up we put him in his bike seat, gave him a waffle and headed on down to Balboa for breakfast.

Do you see all those people on the sidewalks? That is the line for the ferry to go over to Balboa. We definately waited in it too~ They close off the island and the ferry is the only way on.

An hour later... Beck loved the boat ride! And a nice guy gave him a red balloon (balloons are his newest obsession.)

Loving the American spirit.

We ate breakfast at Charlie's Chili on the boardwalk. Its a bit of a dive, but I'm obsessed with their french toast.

Riding around Balboa.

Taking the Back Bay route home.

After Beck's nap we did some barbeque hopping at friend's and families houses, and then jumped on the bikes again to catch some fireworks. My entire family rode from my aunt's house down to the beach. They close off PCH on the 4th so its really fun to ride in the middle of the street with hundreds of other bike riders.

Love this picture of Beck... the first firework scared him just a bit. But he loved them once he was used to the noise.

After the festivites we came home, Beck and I went to bed, and Clark played Settlers with my brother and cousins. It was daylight when he finally rolled into bed.

Not a bad 4th huh?

Me and my boy.

Sooooooo Beck and I might have been matching one Sunday and I might have taken a photo shoot. How corny can I get?

Yes another video...

Did anyone watch that new game show wipeout? Kinda cheesy, but Beck loved it! Sorry to post yet another video... but he just cracks me up, so I must share it with the world. Anytime anyone fell, this was his reaction. Where does he get this stuff?

Recent Happenings.

Beach Day! We had a spontaneous stop by the beach and let Beck play in the water fully dressed. Those huggies can hold some serious water! He loves loves loves the water just like his Dad.

Shiner. Beck has had some unfortunate run ins with the cement the last couple of weeks. His entire eye and nose were covered in scratches. Poor boy!

Apple love. This boy almost has a full set of teeth! He gets them in four at a time and doesn't even get fussy! I just discovered that all his back teeth popped up, and he never had one restless night. Is that normal?

Disneyland! We are official pass holders so if anyone wants to go call us up! Disneyland has this fabulous system called 'the baby pass' where parents can use the fastpass lane while they switch off watching the babies. Beckett loved all the sights, and I'm so excited to take him all the time!

Clark took a picture of our Tower of Terror photo.
