spring.


This morning Bentley decided to give Gaige some loves. Though I don't think Gaige was having as much fun as Bentley. I had to pull Bentley off of him a couple of times to make sure Gaige could breathe.

Yesterday we called it a beach day and went to Ocean Park Beach in Santa Monica with our friends Bryn, Claire, Kelli, and Ava. Bentley was amazingly well behaved and spent the entire 2 hours just playing in the sand with Claire. I've always just thought the beach would be too hard, but knowing that Bentley can just entertain himself and I can give Gaige enough attention to make sure he doesn't shove all of the sand on the beach in his mouth is going to make this spring and summer awesome! Not that I get to layout or anything, but I think chasing the boys around and playing in the sand will get me just as tan. Except now I am old and use lots of sunscreen!



We have our own garden plot at our apartment complex just downstairs from our home. It is only 4 by 5 feet, but it's cool. Bentley loves to water the flowers and dig in the dirt. Grams always lets him play in the backyard for hours watering with the hose, picking strawberries, and whatever else floats his boat. So we planted a rose bush on our garden plot with some renunculas. These are my pretty roses. Maybe someday I'll plant some basil, cilantro, and some other herbs. For now it just makes me happy that I can keep the flowers alive and Bentley has so much fun watering them.



3 people love me:

Those flowers are AMAZING!!! You need to teach me how to plant flowers and make them look like that. They are beautiful. I cant believe that Bentley is already two and Gaige is almost one. Wow how time flies. We love you guys.
