Beach on our deck


We broke down and bought Owen a sandbox tonight. I had been against a sandbox, because, well I think they are gross. But Owen loved the sand at Wonderscope, and I started thinking that maybe he was missing a crucial toddler experience by not having a sandbox. As you can see by the sand stuck on his face, he loves it.

O's cute crab sandbox...and 150 lbs of sand. 50 lbs are now scattered on our deck.

He had to stop playing because he saw an airplane, lol.

And here are his new crocs...they are possibly the ugliest shoes ever made, but he absolutely loves them. In fact, he picked them out himself! If you look close you can see the eyes on the shoes...they are frogs and when he walks through water they make frog prints.

There was so much sand stuck in his hair...wonder why? The next photos will explain...

Yes, if you are sweaty and lay in a sandbox, you will have sand stuck to you.


Apparently sand is cozy to lay on!

And this is what he does 90% of the time he is playing in the sand...he throws it all over the deck.


Oh, what a goof. After his sand adventure, he had a bath, and I kid you not, there were at least 2 cups of sand in the bottom of the tub. Speaking of cups, my poor measuring cups are now sand toys. Oh the joys of being wrapped around your child's finger!
