Beach Trip 08
We just returned from a quick jaunt over to Pacific City, for a few days of relaxation. Ariah was really excited about the beach and building sand castles as she has seen it done many times in one of her favorite Word World episodes. As you’ll see in the pictures, she came away from that experience with mixed reviews. We had a great time, though. How about those opening ceremonies to the Olympics? When they unrolled that gigantic LCD screen, I about lost my mind. While I have mixed feelings on the Olympics being in China, that was extremely cool. Anyway, back to real life. Here are the pics…
2-year appointment…
Still recovering from the shin-dig that was Ariah’s 2nd birthday party, we ventured over to the doctor’s office for her 2-year checkup. (That’s right people, we now talking years, not months.) Great news all-round with Ariah now tipping the scales at 24lbs (20%) and a length of 34.5″ (75%). Those are both huge increases since her 18-month appointment.
Speaking of the party, we had a nice Saturday morning affair with mostly family in attendance. Playing the role of this year’s birthday cake, Shyla and her dad made a layered sorbet dessert with toasted coconut that was amazing! Here are a few snaps courtesy of Uncle Travis:
