Crane Beach

Hurry up, Mom! I'll help you with the dishes: Don't you know this is a beach day?Holding hands on the way there.
(Or, should have been when the panicked moms were figuring out how to get a jump-start!)

Oskar loved the water!

A group of grannies we happened to set up next to, loved us- and volunteered to take many photos of this:

They both climbed in, on their own!

Watching the "big kids"!

We found a hole to play in....

And Brendan fell in!

Dust, dust, dusting the sand off!

Cooling. The water was great! 62 degrees.

Getting ready for bed... Halfway into the beach pyjamas.

I love Daddy~

Mowing the lawn~

Chats!

We had a great dinner of bbq'd chicken (even cut apart and brined!), our first beefsteak tomato from the garden salad with basil, chive oil, balsamic and mozzarella, and our own roasted garlic and some carrots.
Andrew loved the chicken Dad kept feeding him!

He took his first steps today! Couldn't believe it.... Still Can't! One, two, three! We were at the Watertown MDC Pool (which, to our shock, will no longer be open for the rest of the beautiful, hopefully hot remaining days of the summer season!).
He pushed himself up to standing a couple days ago... No surprise he'd try adding in a few steps!
It just doesn't seem real yet... Hope to get some footage of this to post!
