Morning Chess

Ocean swimming anyone?

Maybe these are just funny to me because I was the one trying to sell "the ocean is fun" to Zach...this is one sale I have yet to close. Instead, I carry him in (furthest we have gotten) while he holds on for dear life.

Then I go back in and show him how fun it can be...while he begs me to come in. He is even scared if I am out there without him. And this is why we vacation near the beach...but at a place with several pool options.

1...2...3...JUMP!!

Zach has really warmed up to the water and jumping! He loves to play in the pool and would jump in all day if he could.
He started getting fancy with some "twist jumps"

More fun in the sun

We played in the regular depth pool today, so harder to take pics when each parent has a kid, but had to capture Zach's favorite part of the deep end. Compare to the first time...in Hilton Head (May 2008...I was 8 wks preg with Molly).

Pool Day with Sherilyn

Zach & Sherilyn take after their Mommy's when it comes to their love of the water!

They played in the pool all day...switched pools and kept the pool party going.

Sunday...day 1 of vacation...Zach's highlight of the day.

The first day of vacation isn't really vacation....but a good travel day down and we are ready for vacation!

Hang time

It was a beautiful day today, so we went to the park and had a great time!! Zach is getting so big! He can now really "own" the park. He can climb it all on his own and hang for a long time!!

2nd annual Easter Egg Hunt

The Easter Bunny came to our house today...delivering a ton of eggs for Zach & Molly and their friends to find...we had such a great time!!

Last year, seven kids...this year 16!!!

After the eggs were found...

Bike Riding

Zach is getting really good at his bike! He can peddle and steer...pretty good. A few crashes but can go all the way around my car!!
