i have no complaints. october in boston can be downright dreary, but not this one. it was in the 80's and we were ON THE BEACH. IN BATHING SUITS. IN OCTOBER. it was awesome. everyone was busy doing other things except william + i (and parker... he managed to work it into his schedule). so the three of us took off for the beach. glorious. we brought along some drinks, and apples and pretzels and dip and sat for a few hours soaking in the sun before it goes away for the winter. parker sat happily checking out the beach and listening to the waves, then ate, and slept. he's a beach bum already! then, we came home, turned on some bob marley, i opened myself a blueberry beer and made roasted brussel sprouts and an orzo veggie salad and steve put away his work for the night so we could just hang out.
it was a good day.

Aww! Gorgeous baby and gorgeous mama :) x
This sounds dreaaaaaamy. I wish we had a beach nearby to take little guy too.
Parker is so SMILEY! I love his little bonnet. W has one just like it.
I LOVE those kind of days! I wish we still lived by the beach!
i am so dreading the snow that is coming. i love this warm fall!
What fun! It's no longer beach weather here in Seattle.
I like this day so much.
Pretty mama.
I thought about going to the beach on Monday. Too bad my company's a jerk and doesn't recognize most federal holidays. Sigh. Looks like a blast. I'm glad Parker could squeeze you guys in :)
i loved our little heat wave too, but i didn't even think of going to the beach one last time! looks gorgeous. and that sounds like the makings of a perfect day :)
love spontaneous days like these!
this is something you WON'T see in seattle this time of year!
Oh.my.gosh. that first picture is just precious! Looks like a great trip!
awesome! so bummed we didn't make it to the beach while we were up there. next time...
that sounds like the best kind of day! i'm glad you took time to enjoy the sun while it lasts. :) parker just gets cuter all the time!!
What a fantastic day for you guys! I love that you cook for your family. I really should do that.
jealous. of both the beach bathing and your boob size.
wow, this is so awesome! i am jealous of the beautiful weather.
xo TJ
if that's not awesome i don't know what is.
god beach in october, i am jealous! also, good for you for getting out in a bathing suit so soon after giving birth!!
WOW, wonderful for you to have a day at the beach in October, must have been fun :).
Ohhh I am so jealous of your 80 degree October weather and your beach day. It's like 50 degrees and dreary here in Seattle. So so jealous!
Also brussel sprouts are my favorite - yum! Sounds like the best day!
You bathing suit is super cute--or as much of it as the pic shows is. What a great day!
PS I'm throwing a double baby shower for my sister and SIL on Sat and am using your trick of juice halved with seltzer, posted quite awhile ago, for the beverage. Tried it at home and loved it--my hubby especially. Thanks for the idea!

Ahh. What fun. I have been clinging to the last shreds of warm weather days here in the Midwest, and I fear they are quickly dwindling away.
that terrycloth hat makes me want to die. adorbs.
also...you guys should come visit me in Israel and you could go to the beach in october...and november...and december...and january...
you catch my drift.
chubby little thighs!
(parker's, not yours.)
It's been ridiculously warm here, huh?!! GAHH!!! I want the winter now. I'm ready!
Sounds like a perfect day!
I love your blog and found it through Jenny. However, if you mention blueberry beer one more time I'm gonna have to stop reading out of sheer jealousy! Omg, what I miss most about the north? Sea dogs blueberry beer, yum!
I want me some blueberry beer.

That first photo is darling.

wow, beach in october! that's pretty awesome :)
Sounds perfect with your two boys.
Can I be honest and say I hope I keep having boys? I just want a passel of boys. I saw two kids in Target with their Halloween costumes...the little girl had a princess one and the little boy had a zebra. I wanted to high five him for being infinitely cooler.
This is what Everett has done to me.
jealous... but love these pictures. what i would give to be on the beach right now... sigh...
I just got back from the best beach vacation yet. Hard to return to what passes for normal in Key West...
I want to be there!
