All we do is play

At least in pictures. As I scroll through my recent pics I think "WOW - these people do nothing but have fun...I wish we were like that." I also think "Poor family - must not have a Mom." I am artfully avoiding all cameras at this time. I only agreed to be in the pic with all of the pregnant girls in the ward (there are about 5). Fortunately, I haven't seen that pic pop up yet. :-)

On a recent warm and sunny day we took a little trip to the aquarium:


I came prepared for them to just play in the water. Isla was a little hesitant, but Campbell has the BEST time squirting all of the big kids (which was pretty funny).
..

We also had a family outing where we visited Tanaka Farms and picked strawberries. It's great because they let you sample all of the vegetables. Isla ate and entire Maui onion and Campbell...ate everything. He decided that bok choy is his new favorite vegetable.
..

Then came the strawberry picking...or perhaps more accurately described as strawberry "eating."
..

In other news, these days Isla prefers feeding HERSELF. I haven't decided yet if this make my life harder or easier.


And say hello to the newest member of our household:


Perhaps it means that we're in total family mode...or perhaps just getting really old...but we were VERY excited about this new glider.

Ooh, I'm very envious of your new glider!!

I'm having the same dilemma with Jack feeding himself. He needs a bath after pretty much every meal. And don't even get me started on the kitchen.

Obviously Isla did not inherit my good taste buds which avoid onions. Yes to fresh strawberries. We will have some in a few weeks, if it ever gets reasonably warm around here.
