Labor Day Hiking

All though my camera only shows we went on a hike that day, we also went to the beach and had a barbecue at the Rosenhans! It was a great day and perfect weather if I remember correctly.

Thank goodness for good strollers so babies can nap. Everyone was a trooper on our morning hike. After El Moro Canyon we headed to Cafe Rio for lunch then out to Corona Del Mar beach.

Oatmeal for Breakfast

Every morning Westin eats oatmeal for breakfast. Until he was 12 months it was plan oatmeal, which is probably the equivalent to eating paste.  We recently introduced oatmeal packets and he loves them even more. He usually starts with cheerios on his tray so we can get the water heated up and then the oatmeal to cool off for him. 

Westin has also started to only eat certain things with a spoon. He does ok but he usually starts out with it then gets sick of it and goes for it with his hands. He never gives up the spoon and most certainly doesn't want our help. Frustrating. 

Starting with the spoon.

Diving right in with both hands! 

He usually has a bib on and when we forget it its a nightmare to clean up because usually he has half of it on his chest.

A cute video of him being cheesy.  I took his tray away in effort to teach him to not throw his food. If he is done with it our doesn't want it, it goes on the ground. It irritates the heck out of me! So if he does his tray gets taken away. Its been a few months of this and he has shown no signs of change.

Corona Del Mar Tide Pools

We took the Lainharts down to the Tide Pools at corona Del Mar. It might be our new favorite beach. One of the most beautiful and the houses along the beach are breathtaking! 

When there is a low tide you can see all sorts of sea creatures...maybe not all sorts but quite a few. 

The families

Sorry Becca, every time I post this picture it comes out with the streaks on it. I'll work on it later.

Isaiah loves the water, but Westin hates it. He bursts into tears when we get close to it.

He does love to dig though.

Recently Westin has been totally in to his Dad. When Matt gets home from work he is all about his Dad. Pushes me away and cries when I hold him. Does it make me sad, a little.
