Salon Audrey & Alki

Who doesn't love themed dress-up days at school?! Here Audrey is ready to head out for Hawaiian Day.
Sam went along to the party store to pick out Audrey's outfit and saw a straw fedora that he couldn't live without. Lisa tried to explain that the hat was for "big boys like daddy", but alas, the 2 year old won out and got his hat.

"Watch mommy, I'll put it on and you'll see how cute I am in my big boy hat . . . "


"Whose calling it a big boy hat now mommy, I can see my cuteness reflecting back in your eyes . . . "

"Whoa, mommy . . . who turned out the lights?!" Knucklehead.

On the knucklehead front, let's see if you can tell the difference between this picture and the next (hint: it's not the monkey).

If you guessed bangs you are correct. However, if you guessed a very sad little girl whose getting her picture taken right before she's sent to her room for cutting her own hair you get extra credit.

On a sunny day last month (yes, there was one), we headed out to Alki. We didn't realize it at the time, but it was the afternoon with the lowest tide of the month. The low tide created a bunch of small sand islands and you could actually see crab waddling in the little waterways.

Audrey wore her Hawaiian day lei. I'm pretty sure when you tell a 4 year old that you're going to the beach they imagine something a little more tropical than Alki. I believe the quote was "Dad, is this mud or sand?". Honey, I'm not really sure.

Sam had an absolute blast though. "Daddy, whose this boy following me?! He won't stop copying me! Is this what Audrey feels like when I follow her around?". Knucklehead nickname is safe for at least another month!
