Sunshine at last








We have been in Florence for a week now and today was the first day of sunshine. Of course this meant that we had to take full advantage and fit in as many outdoor activities as possible even though it was still quite cold. We started out the day at the park. Henry was screaming and would not eat or sleep and so we loaded him up, drove to the park and stuck him in a swing. This did the trick because after his first swing adventure he nursed and fell sound asleep in my arms on the park bench. What a kid.

Next up was the hike to Hobbits Beach. Once again Henry was screaming and unable to sleep at the house. There is far too much action with a four year old and a two year old cousin around you see. This earned him another car ride and once again it worked like a charm. The car ride landed us at the trail head of Hobbits Beach. Grandma makes a great tour guide. The hike was unbelievably beautiful. The beach was great too but so cold and windy we didn't last more that a minute. This little walk was so rejuvenating for the both of us.

Gotta love the Moby wrap! Although yours looks like a different version then the one we have. I love Henry's little hats! He is so cute!!

The boys are so handsome...all of them, what studs. I am wishing I was with you to enjoy all the green beauty, but I hate the cloudy cold.
