It has been a long time since we updated our blog yet again! So, for the sake of Leah's biggest fans, here are some pictures from our recent day trip to the beach. We went to meet a few of my girlfriends from college and it was so fun to see them. And, to make the day even better the temperature of Lake Michigan was perfect! It didn't feel like you were swimming in a recently-melted glacier, yet it was still refreshing. Ahhh. Leah had a blast. She LOVES the water, or as she calls it, "wahbie." She also enjoyed the sand. What is it with toddlers and sand? She buried her own knees and toes, she used it as a condiment in which to dip her peanut butter sandwich, she did somersaults in the sand, she kicked it up in the air, she investigated shady patches of sand to try to figure out why they were so much cooler that the hot sunny sand... Needless to say, we are still cleaning the sand off of her nearly a week later... .
