Today we rode the Metrolink train from San Juan Capistrano to Santa Ana and back again. This is us while waiting for the train. Once we got to our destination, we crossed over the tracks to the other side and rode the southbound train back to san Juan Capistrano. The goal of the trip was the ride itself, not the industrial part of Santa Ana.
Soren enjoyed watching the scenery go by just as much as Einar did. Soren was also the only one in our party to enjoy a snack during the journey--Fresh Milk is good anywhere!
A front view of the growing baby looking like a kid now! He's over 2 feet tall now and is now laughing at things. He likes to laugh when I take off his clothes.
Jared and Einar checking out the scenery too. While we were on the train, Einar wanted to call the grandparents to tell him what we were doing. Cell phones are pretty cool.
Can you tell who was having fun on the train?
On the Fourth of July, we needed to make sure that Einar got a good nap in so that he would enjoy the fireworks at night. Jared volunteered to oversee nap time in Einar's room. I think I was feeding Soren. No nap for Mom, I had a cake to finish decorating...
This was delicious and very pretty at the same time. It was a cheesecake bar cake with flage decorations....not too bad for breakfast the next day either. I made this version dairy-free since we were celebrating the Fourth at Kathleen's house and she can't do the dairy thing.
For those of you that are concerned that son #2 will grow up with a sling-shaped back (think cooked shrimp), don't worry! He does get to stretch out once in awhile when he rides on Dad. He's also having much more not on a parent time these days, especially in the morning.
This is the festive Fourth of July crew before we fed them a fabulous grilled steak, potato, green bean and corn on the cob dinner.
One day Jared set up the tent on Einar's bed so that he could nap in it and feel comfortable sleeping in it for the camping trip that they took. As you can see, Soren and I felt comfortable in it as well. Soren is on the other side of me and fell asleep drinking milk yet again.
