Crawling, Bawling, rolling.

Wilkomen!
"A" has an obsession. He will hear the dishwasher open from anywhere in the house and come running. He will wriggle and writhe out of your arms then crawl like a mad man. Once he gets there he will pull out the sharpest knife he can find and start swinging. This is one of his more mild recent dishwasher visits.




In other news our continuous search for entertainment took us to Santa Monica this week. They have a litle amusement park on the pier and fancy shopping at third street. Being the kind of folks we are we stayed away from third street.
Right from the get go there was a giant arcade with those $0.25 "rides" That shake a bit. Z wanted to climb all over those.


This is what happened when we tried to pry her off of those to see the rest of the fun stuff.



She is as two as two gets.

This is our childrens reaction upon seeing all of the booths and prizes and rides and excitement.




We hung out around the booths and rides for a bit.



We took some time to admire the ocean and the sweaty masses from the pier.




I think I might get one of these "A" shots everywhere we go. I like them.



After lunch we went to join said sweaty masses who were sweatier and more massive than they appeared earlier. This was "A"s first time at the beach or seeing the ocean and such. He seemed to enjoy it more than Z who has developed a hesitancy around water. Note the sweaty masses upon us.







All things considered it was a good and exhausting day. We are going to try to make it to the Natural History Museum next week since they are letting teachers and guests in free to preview the new Dinosaur Exhibit! We are trying to turn our kids into road warriors.

Z's wild eyes.




Three scoops please.

Looks like a really enjoyable day. Sanata Monica has some good swimming and occassionally some good body surfing.

Looks like lots of fun! You guys are so adventurous.
I remember going to 3rd street on a choir trip. There was an awesome MJ impersonator.
