Wutz in Water - Summer Oh-Nine

Here are a few photos of the wutz from the beach trip last week. Once I recover I'll post more and go into further detail, but I'm going to be a lazy bum until I feel I'm back to normal, which could be... uhhhh... never.

Go Fly a Kite!

The wutz flew is first kite this evening. The sun was beginning to set and there was a little breeze, therefore he decided that he must fly his new kite. Because there was so little breeze, getting the kite off the ground required effort and lots of running. So I ran and he jogged after me holding the plastic spool with yards and yards of white string wound around it. As the kite flew higher and higher he struggled to get it unwound but he managed after a little practice. He ran and ran and ran to keep that kite afloat. Finally he looked at me mid-stride and said, "I'm tired." Which was enough to make me put the brakes on (gratefully, I might add) and reel in the rainbow colored kite.

It was exhausting. And awesome.

The Wiz

While in Conneticut we spent an afternoon at a matinee of The Wiz, in which my nephew played the Scarecrow. He did a fabulous job. I got to see a side of him that I had never seen before. I am very proud of him. I had no clue he had such a lovely voice, too! Wow!

Afterward was a Q&A with William F. Brown, the playwright of The Wiz. It was interesting!

Here are some terrible pics snapped from my phone:

Breakfast

The wutz spent the morning watching Dolphins dine. He calls them 'dawsons' rather than dolphins. He loves them. PopPop bought him a dolphin board book that he is now making me read every time I try to get him to go to sleep.







And he enjoyed feeding the Seagulls. The Seagulls didn't like him quite as much as he liked them, though.

Vacation!

The wutz is having a blast on our first day of vacation! He enjoyed splashing in the pool and he loved 'jumping' in as well. But I think his favorite thing thus far is definitely the Big Water, which is what he calls the ocean. He really enjoyed the water and the sand.
