“Getting to know you!” : Magnus and the Coast (again)

This last week we had the fun-tastic opportunity to go to Tillamook again, so we could eat cheese and ice cream again. And also because Emily and Scott were in town and wanted to visit the coast. This was the first time we got to meet each other’s newest additions to each family: Magnus and Grant.

After ice cream we went to Oceanside. The weather that day was beautiful. It was actually a good day to swim, though we did not. This beach also had a tunnel that leads to another beach.

Here is the whole troop minus me.

This is Magnus’s new cousin Grant.

A beautiful beach

And some of the off shore rocks:

Though we didn’t swim, some of us had fun playing in the water:

Here we are going back through the tunnel.

We let Magnus feel the sand in his toes. I don’t know if it was his baby reflexes, but he always curled them up. If you look closely, you can see his feet inside of my footprints.

Here is Magnus’s impression of a salty old sea captain.

Here are Magnus and Grant hanging out after our walk.

We decided we needed some Burgerville afterwards (the Guptill GPS pronounced this with a soft “g”, making it sound French). Everyone enjoyed the yummy food and good company.

Baby swap! Baaaaaaby swap!

All in all it was a great day at the coast.
