Why do smiles come the best when he's on the change table?

I said, "Navarre, let me take some pictures of your new haircut." This is what I got. Seriously.

Size comparison #2

As a parent of two kids and being a younger sibling myself, I'm very cognizant not to compare my children, especially since we have a girl and a boy. That being said, I can't get over the size difference in these early months. Remember the first size comparison (click here to see), well, here is comparison #2.

Jay at 11 weeks, 5 days

Navarre at 14 weeks, 3 days

This sleeper fits Jay more snuggly at 11 weeks than it did on Navarre at 14 weeks. I guess he's running about a month bigger! And now neither child is buckled into the swing.

Beaches

Jumping waves with Daddy

Crystal Crescent Beach

I've been promising pictures of our beach trips for some time now. We discovered two beaches this summer - Bayswater (about 1 hour from us) and Crystal Crescent (about 45 minutes from us). My fave is Crystal Crescent. The sand is finer and whiter than most Nova Scotia beaches, and the water is beautiful - a little on the chilly side, but beautiful.

Jay was pretty good on all of our beach trips. We kept him in the shade, and he was content for the most part. Spider monkey LOVES the beach. She loves rolling in the sand, jumping the waves, running down the beach, finding shells/rocks - all good things given she was named after a beach. After all, she is her mother's daughter.
