When you jump into a pig's mud puddle, expect company





We went to a petting zoo last week. With my mom, sister in law and her kids. We had a bunch of fun, but I think Luke had most fun of all. He just ran from animal to animal pointing and hitting them. Then to his delight he noticed the day had somehow gotten even better... there was a puddle of muddy water, heaven on earth. So he ran (yes, literally) over and jumped (not literally, he's just a baby :) into it. While he was enjoying himself splish splashing away. A very hot, very pregnant pig came waddling over to what was obviously her bath. Luke was excited to have a friend at first. Then she got a little too friendly and laid right on top of Luke. He was stuck and not amuzed. It was pretty funny. He LOVED the petting zoo, what a fun place for little ones.

Party at the Beach


A week or so ago we spent a week at the Oregon coast. As the picture shows we kicked up our heels and had some fun. Luke loved the beach. The first day we were there he just ran into the ocean, literally! He is so crazy sometimes, fearless. He was totally clothed and just ran in to the frigid water again and again and enjoyed it. So we prepped for the second day with a swimsuit and video camera, but he had wisened up. Just wanted to play in the stream. We loved taking sand baths, running around on the beach and going on hikes up to beautiful waterfalls.
