Captain Karis

We spent a couple days this summer with my parents in Nantucket and here are some of the highlights:

  1. We spent a day at the beach. It's the kind of beach where you let the air out of your tires and drive onto the sand. You back the car up and dump all of your stuff. We had a nice day and BBQ'ed. Karis doesn't exactly look like she is at the beach because she hung out in a UV tent. She also tested out the ocean. I'll have to do a video post of that one in a couple days.



  2. We went boating. No, that is not the latest style in chic clothing for babies. To board the boat, Karis had to wear a life preserver. You have to admit she looked pretty cute/silly.



  3. Karis set the Guiness Book World Record for youngest to captain a boat. As you can see, Grandpa let her drive. Even though she didn't hit anything, we'll be sticking to the exersaucer and jumperoo at home. (they require a little less supervision and gas...)

Plague or Pool?

Sincerest appologies for the extended absence and for breaking the silence with little more than a few words.  

Karis has been so much fun and we have been incredibly busy. (having fun with her) The picture below is not actually a real frog, but is an inflatable pool. Thank goodness!

A couple weekends ago was a perfect opportunity to test it out. Karis hated it at first, but warmed up to it. Once she realized that there were bath toys she just started playing. She even learned how to splash and attempted to drink some spout water...
