Jason's 33rd Birthday 5/23

Not many pictures since Jason does not like a big deal made over his birthday. Here's a shot of him enjoying his birthday breakfast - a gigantic whole wheat blueberry pancake. We stuck a candle in it and sang to him.

An Evening Visit to the Beach, Sat 5/15

Fully clothed and dry

Luca had a little too close encounter with the surf. As expected for May, the water was frigid so we had to take his wet clothes off.
He didn't mind.

Loving life

Here we are doing what I thought was "observing the majesty of the ocean" when really Luca was just scheming on how he could get away from me and plunge himself head first in the surf

A good shot of my reaction after Luca took ANOTHER "accidental" spill in the water, soaking the last dry diaper I had in the diaper bag. Drats! As punishment we made him run around naked; which of course, he LOVED!

Trip to Pittsburgh: 5/12 - 5/14

On our way!







Spending time with his old pal Isaac. While Amy and I enjoyed some chatting time upstairs these sweet looking boys found the finger paints and made their own works of art in Amy's basement.
