Barcelona: Day 3

Rick took the day off from work so we had a fun day exploring the city. We walked through some of the small alleys of Barri Gotic and made our way down to the seaside to have lunch. We got to play on the beach for a little while and then headed over to one of the marinas to see the sailboat that Rick sailed across the Atlantic on. In all, a beautiful day and the boys fell asleep on the bus ride back to the apartment.
Nick arrives on Friday so expect better pictures soon!

Barcelona: Day 2

We didn't do much today but here are some pics anyway.

Starting out the day with chocolate croissants that Cal and Grandpa got in the morning

"Hiding" in the apartment

"Cheese!"

They are shouting "Supermom!" because I'd just been saving them from sharks

It's hard to see here but there is a small heron in this tiny little pond. He seems to be a regular.

Barcelona: Day 1

Our first day in Barcelona...in pictures.

Seasoned travelers in the Barcelona airport

Walking to the closest playground by Rick and Rose's apartment

"Hiding" from Grandpa

Busy Boy

Isaac spent the morning doing puzzles...

and then he had to take a break to do some grocery shopping.

He actually loaded and unloaded all of the groceries from the cart and put the cart away without me asking. What a helpful guy!

Spiderman vs. Superman

Bedtime heroes

Dog Days of Summer

Forgive me, Isaac, but I couldn't resist taking your picture while you napped. What a pose!

Winter & Playgrounds

We have loved Winter in Munich. We've been able to enjoy the snow and do lots of sledding. However, enough is enough. Please arrive soon, Spring!

Here are a few shots from the past two weeks. We had a few warmer days where the sun came out but now we're back to snow and negative temperatures (in degree C, I'm becoming a European). And just as a side note, Munich (maybe Germany in general?) has some awesome playgrounds. Calvin is becoming quite the daredevil.

Awesome slides in West Park

Isaac walking back from dropping off Cal at kindergarten. We walk through Theresienwiese (the Oktoberfest grounds) every day, next to the Statue of Bavaria.

Sunny but chilly day at a different playground

Two boys swinging

Isaac screamed when I took him off the swings so others could have a turn

More swinging

"Mommy, I'm all the way at the top!"
