Love the short week! Friday can never come too soon! This week we helped Emery's best buddy Matty celebrate his 3rd birthday at Pump it Up (a kid friendly indoor play place that has all the inflatable slides & bounceis you can imagine). The kids loved it, wore themselves out and I enjoyed their naps that day! Emmy had a Dr. appt for her preschool physical (she was actually looking forward to her appt becuase she knew it somehow had somethign to do with going to preschool....and she just can't wait). Macy is on the upswing from having something called "Fifth's Disease" one of the many common childhood illnesses....she was unaffected as far as how she felt, but had bright red, hot cheeks all week and then broke out with a crazy rash all over her arms and legs....she asked me why when she wakes up each day she keeps turning red....I told her she was like "Pinkalicious!" We did a lot of baking this week...making a homemade pizza with some great dough and sauce that my neighbor Ann dropped by after she was down in Little Italy...the girls also made a batch of chocolate chip cookies (which Morty ended up enjoying more than anyone). He ate an entire plastic bag of about 20 cookies while I was upstairs putting the kids down for the night...he's not even phased merely a few pounds heavier. We plan to finish off the week with another concert in the park down in Coronado. I should be able to talk to Mike here in a day or so once he's in port...can't wait!!!

I just stuck around for the pizza dough...
I had a fun outing with Emery and Coop on Friday while Macy was at preschool. She went home with her friend Sarah for lunch and play date so we had more time than usual....we went over to Carlsbad to pick fresh strawberries. It was a beautiful day and the strawberry fields were over flowing with great looking berries. Emmy had so much fun walking up and down each row looking for just the right strawberries. At first she would pick anything she saw....green, pink, it didn't matter. Once I showed her what to look for she quickly caught on. I did catch her throwing a couple of "no good berries!" She couldn't wait to eat them for snack after nap. Coop was hilarious....he kept tripping so got pretty dirty, but had so much fun eating the strawberries right off the bush....probably not allowed, but it was too funny to stop.
Is this red enough???!!!
Hi Ems!!!

We had some beautiful weather this week so spent a lot of time outside. The girls have been bike riding and drawing with their sidewalk chalk in the evenings and we are settling into Daddy being gone....although the girls continue to ask when's Daddy coming home???
"Mommy & Honey" admiring "Baby"
Look at all my teeeeeeth!!!!
Such sweet sisters...
We spent all day Thursday at Del Mar beach....Macy and Cooper loved splashing in the water, but Emmy definitely preferred watching the waves from afar. Now that Cooper is walking he wants to do everything he sees his big sisters doing.
Ems loved filling up the buckets......the best shot of the day is below where she laid her bucket out and just watched and waited for the waves to come and fill it up!
