8.4.11

Just playing. :) I actually took about 15 pictures, because Paige just kept following Wyatt with her eyes, and he was running back and forth the entire time.
"Wyatt, please don't run so close to Paige's head."
"Why?"
"Because you might step on her."
"Why?"
"Uh...because you don't look where you're going?"
"Why?"
"Because you're a toddler, and by nature, toddlers are self absorbed to a fault. It's not that you're trying to be egocentric, it's just that you don't know any different yet. We're working on it."
"Mommy, just say 'because'. Just 'because.'"
"Fine. Because!"

Looks like Wyatt has my delightfully fair skin tone. Oh well, maybe the vampire look will still be in when he's a teenager. ;)

Really, boxes make the best toys.

Hee hee....Paige looks a little startled to be caught on camera. :)

If Wyatt looks totally apprehensive in this picture, it is because he most certainly was. First of all, he hated the helmut. Then I tried to put the cover down, and it wouldn't fit over his head - he was sitting in there with his head tilted all the way to the left "Mommy, I do not like this." No kidding! I got rid of the cover, which somehow caused me to tip the bike over (the trailer didn't tip though). That made him even more nervous, "Mommy, I would like to get out." (he's always so polite the first time.) Finally we got everything settled and went for a bike ride. I wish I could say I enjoyed it, but I apparently I have the most uncomfortable bike seat known to all mankind, so I spent the majority of the bike ride wondering if the numbness in my nether regions would go away after I got off the bike (it did).
But, we'll do it again because it's good exercise for me, and everytime I turned around and yelled, "Having fun?!?!" into the wind, I am pretty sure Wyatt was saying yes. It was that, or "help".

"Heyo? Heyo? Grandma S are you coming for noonles? At my house? Grandma S, bring Grandpa S in the green jeep, okay bye!"
Seriously, this is pretty much the conversation he was having on "his" phone. :)

We spent the morning at the beach today. Wyatt had a pretty good time, pouring sand into buckets and avoiding the water like the plague. Paige slept most of the time, under the shade of a tree. Lucky girl. :)
