O.K everyone we are still away from home but having a blast, so far is great being able to spend a lot of time as a family, feels like a paid vacation, well at least is what I think.
Yesterday weather drove us to Gladstone beach and playground;when some individuals might consider 85 degrees kind of balmy the two of us were sweating like pigs in a blanket. It was a nice day except for the fact that since we switched from cloth diapers (traveling reasons at the moment)James got another awful diaper rash. Arrrghhhh, hopefully it gets better soon.
Also I decided to begin a daily food thread recipe or at least try to do so. Here is our first daily food log, enjoy.
