Beach Baby!

Well the Ocean State at least provides us with easy access to the ocean. First beach day of the summer and Luisa was ecstatic. I was talking to a friend about how Luisa has a serious love of water. I remember when my mom gave Luisa a bath at 2 weeks old and my mom could no believe how much Luisa liked it. My mom said that Luisa was like a fish! Till this day, Luisa takes a bath every night. She will drink the water, dunk her head under, splash her face, and even lie down in the water. Anyways, this friend mentioned that Luisa must be a water sign from the Zodiac calendar, and although I think that stuff is ridiculous, I looked it up and in fact, Luisa is a water sign (Caleb is too, Emily). I still think that stuff is still ridiculous.

The water was freezing but that didn't stop lil' Luisa. And after a couple hours, she cuddled up in the beach chair with me and just hung out. And Luisa does not really ever cuddle! She also seemed to soak up all the sun because I returned home with little to no color but she was perfectly tan! 

Summer update

Hey all,

This summer has started off pretty great so far. We finished up with school and meetings and headed over to Providence and Boston for a couple nights. We did a good job of planning the trips too. We looked up things to do and planned for something big each day. 

On Sunday, we went to mass at the beautiful cathedral in Providence- sorry, no photos of that- and then we went to the Zoo!

And then we went to the Children's Museum in Providence. It was awesome! So much fun things for Luisa to do, and I'm not gonna lie, Donny and I found it pretty entertaining too. There were two floors full of great activities. I want to go back!

And then we finished our mini vacation with a trip into Boston. I pretty much only have one photo of the trip, sorry its kind of boring. But we walked a lot and ate great food and we went to a foreign book store and bought tons of books! 

 Anyway, that has been our summer thus far. Since this trip I have been pretty much locked in the library reading and writing while Donny and Luisa have just been chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool... but since the weather has been so crappy lately, I really don't mind being indoors, so far.

How's your summer been going?

Laughter

Here is the last of the posts for the month of pictures link up (although its no longer May...)

So this blog is really funny! I picked a few vines that I thought were fitting to each of you ladies. Even though Emily is the only one pregnant, I picked some based on what I think you were like/would be like as a pregnant lady. Hopefully this makes you laugh!!

For Emily:

When my pregnant wife is crying for no reason and I ask if it’s because of her hormones.

When my pregnant wife and I both come to the conclusion that Taco Bell for dinner sounds way better than me cooking pasta for the umpteenth time this week.

For Donny:

Trying to walk through our pitch-black bedroom while my pregnant wife is taking a nap and tripping over everything and anything on my way into the bathroom.
