Dragonflies & Ice Cream

& grandparents & heavy equipment in the streets & COUSINS & double stroller rides & Sarah B & so many wonderful things - Beatrice is in heaven!

Beatrice can't actually say Eleanor or Anna, though she is really trying very hard. "Eh" and "Ah" - that's about as good as it's getting. Every now and then she might say "Nor Nor" for Eleanor. The rest of us don't need names; as long as E & A are there!

There were a few dragonflies around the pool today and Graham got them to land on his finger over and over. Very cool. Beatrice thinks he is magic. And I got one to land on my finger too, but I'm no "Gahm"

We had fun again relaxing around the pool. If you can call doing anything with 3 kids under 3 relaxing...
In the late afternoon we ventured down to the Village for ice cream ("ass cream") and a tour of the pier. It was like walking down memory lane for me...especially with all the people fishing and crabbing.




Beatrice and Eleanor also enjoyed watching the sewer construction going on a few blocks down. I'm sure in a few years I'll laugh about the toilet flooding our first 15 minutes in the house due to sand and grit getting in through a busted pipe from all the construction...but not yet.
