First day of school!

Jaydan had his first day of preschool on Wednesday. He had lots of fun and I think that he will enjoy it. Keeping our fingers crossed for an excellent year!

Impromptu Sun Cove... the last of summer

We were able to take a quick and impromptu visit to Sun Cove in September. It was great to be able to get away for one more weekend for some sun - it was a beautiful 75* and sunny for us all weekend.
Jaydan got to play on the different play structures, swim in the pool, pick plums & enjoy the toys and kid-friendly things at Cider Works. The tire-horse swing was so cute that Grandma took us into Wenatchee to buy one. He will now be able to enjoy the swing year-round at Grandma and Papa Obermaier's house. He's excited.
Jaydan also slept in a "big boy" bed for the 2 nights of our visit. He was in Papa Dan's bed & was happy to tell about it upon our return. Now that we're home, we're transitioning him to his own "big boy" bed by removing the crib from his room so that London can start to use it. We'll see how that goes.
It was a good weekend and a GREAT way to say our farewells to the sunshine. Both of our football teams - Eastlake and UW - won their games so that was nice icing on the cake.

Seaside 2010

Seaside 2010 was a SUPER FUN trip. We certainly enjoyed our stay again this year - both Jaydan and London seemed to as well. We were a tad worried about travelling London as she was only 2 months old, but she was a trooper and just hung out with everyone.
Night 1 we all went out for dinner... dessert was donuts that were displayed in the nearby case. Jaydan, having not had a donut before, saw them and said "mmmm... I want a chocolate bagel!!" Love it. We lovingly refer to chocolate donuts as chocolate bagels in our house now.

We enjoyed time on the beach - Jaydan made "roads" with the rakes and shovels.
He loved to hang out with the big boys.


We had to hit up the carousel and he seemed happy about that (classic smile and all)


Jaydan LOVED swimming in the pool. He became very daring & was jumping in like a crazy kid.



All in all, it was fantastic. The weather wasn't too bad either, only sprinkling for short bouts on one of the days. We look forward to another trip next year!!
