We had a weekend getaway for erickas birthday this past weekend. Ember got to go to the Newport Aquarium and see lots of fishys, sharks, octupuss among other things.

Ember woke up from a nap in time to enjoy the shark tank

Ember loved looking at the Anchovies. And if you notice, they are enjoying looking right back at her.
After the rest of the aquarium we had to go to the play room (otherwise known as the gift shop).
Someone spent a little too much time watching the sharks.

Ember hangs out with her cousin, Engracia. And all is well.
Auntie T helps Ember with her crunches so she can stay in shape.
Ember likes Mommy's cousin, Kevin.
Auntie T is working Ember to the bone. Nothing's ever good enough for her!
See what happens when you work me too hard!
Luckily, Grandma stepped in so we could show Auntie T who's boss.
And, mommy showed up after all that drama for a picture opportunity (and to dry Ember off after a bath).

Yesterday we went to Cannon beach. There ended up being a sand castle competition so that was a plus. We walked quite a ways and then noticed it was starting to get cooler. We turned around and to our surprise got a lovely shower. That was quite a brisk walk back through the rain and sand.

And behind us is Haystack rock. No Goonies ship in sight today.


And here is Ember feeding herself.

Last week Ember's cousin, Anthony, stayed for the week to visit with her.
He had fun disrupting her playtime, which she also enjoyed.
Lastly, we cornered him for a pose with his cousin and aunt.
