The 4th, A Day at the Beach and a Funny Picture

The 4th of July:

On the bike, eating a fruit rope, giving his sexiest look.

That's all I got for you. I failed to take any pictures of us at friends Jeremy and Nicole's pool party cookout. It was fun. Just believe me.

A Day at the Beach:

Kingston playing with Riley, Emma and Sydney. Nana was there to make sure no one took any of Kingston's toys away from him!

"Jjjjump!" One of Kingston's favorite words and actions. He very rarely actually leaves the ground but don't tell him that. He really thinks he is getting it done!


Michelle and Riley played out in the water with us. 2 week old Sophie was asleep in her private cabana in the sand! See those people way out in the water? That was Kingston and me! We went out past the waves and did some swimming and bobbing around. Kingston likes to be tossed with his water wings on. He goes completely under water and pops up asking for more!

Kingston, why didn't Nana wear her bathing suit to the beach?

I don't know either, son. She is silly! There's always someone on the beach that looks worse than you in a bathing suit, I always say. I just try to sit really close to that person and then I feel pretty good about myself!

A Funny Picture:

Yes, I feed my kid Chef Boyardee. Sorry, but I do. I actually still like it myself so at least I'm not feeding him something I wouldn't even eat! That was me justifying feeding him crap if you didn't pick up on it! Wanna hear another one? Nigel is out of town and I didn't feel like cooking a whole meal for just Kingston and me. Is that a good excuse? I thought so.

You can believe a bath followed this dinner.

And finally, I will leave you with this thought: fanny pack. Think on it. Dwell on it. Reminisce about it and wonder why I'm even mentioning it. I'll tell you about it another day. But fanny pack? Who came up with that name?! Seriously?
