Happy Birthday Nana Baiba!  We decided to play with selfies and blow raspberries all the way to Baltimore.

 Later in the week, we hung out with Rachel and her daughter Farah and the two of them tore into the kitchen cabinet and the salad spinner became a hat, the pots and pans were drums, and the measuring cups were just too much fun.

Beautiful sunny day, so we went down to the pond and I built a little snowhorse for Kadin (who promptly jumped on it and whacked the horse's head off).

We got yet another bike carrying option for Kadin - the WeeRide, a little chair that mounts in front of the adult rider.  He LOVED it, since now he could see everything and even feel the leaning of the bike and try to grab the handlebars and "help out".

A bit of indoor fun after Story Time at the Library.

Kadin hangs out with me at the EMS station, and loves running around with the Run Reports Box, which is like his own little suitcase!

I bought some chalkboard tape and drew a little portrait of our family to inspire Kadin to use it.  He promptly scribbled all over it and then broke the chalk into half, tried to eat it, and proceeded to scribble over the wood bench, the stairs, and the walls.  My little artist!

Yay, back in Alaska.  It's nice to be back home, and it's now light out til 6pm which makes me happy. It's also a lot easier to get the blog done when I have only 6 photos to chose from vs over 200!

Vrrooom, Vrrooom!  He loves pushing all of the buttons and pretending he's flying fast through the snow!

Handsome boy with a dog bowl top hat.  We LOVE being silly together these days!

We went to Fortuna and the Arenal Volcano area and did some nice hiking at the base of the volcano. Kadin loved climbing up the jagged lava trails.  By now, we've realized how fun a hostel/hotel is with a pool and try to find one at every place we stay!

                  

Our last stop was one of my favorites - a little beach called Playa Hermosa, not too touristy, lots of Tico visitors, and a mellow ocean to play in.  Kadin made friends with a little girl about the same age and they loved running around and showing each other how to do different things.  Too cute!
