Recently Cooper and I had the opportunity to take a trip to visit our friends Mary, Mark & Zia in Seattle for a long weekend. Taking the train seemed like a good idea, but 2 hrs. into the 4 hr. trip, he was pounding on the windows crying "outside, OUTSIDE!"
He's such a nature boy. We had a quick cool-off on our walk to the car after sitting in on Zia's weekly dance class. It was a workout for not only the kids but their caretakers too!
Cooper had so much fun with Zia who graciously shared all of her toys and whatnot. I'm not sure which one won the spaghetti eating contest that night.
Cooper gives Zia a lift one rainy afternoon at the park. He wasn't bothered by the wet play structures one bit. Just happy to be OUTSIDE!
Wow, how did we get to FOUR already? How time flies. Adeline woke up so excited this morning to be one year closer to five. She opened a few gifts at the table including some Hello Kitty headphones to go with her new boombox. Ironically, the boombox does not have a headset outlet. Hmm...
For school, we brought some fancy yogurt & fruit parfait cups to share (thanks for the suggestion, Monica). Later Andrea returned to do an art project with the class - pounding crayons into bits and melting them down into various shapes. Above is an excerpt from the daily page we receive from her teachers each day.
