Block Island

Another trip to see Grampa and Beth before they move into the condo for the summer!

We met them on the mainland, and took the boat together.  Asa kept Grampa moving.



Asa liked to walk up to where we were sitting - into the wind, curls flying.

It was a great, relaxing weekend - we had breakfast at the airport diner, where Asa got a pancake as big as his head.  (didn't get that picture - sorry!)


Asa also got into the water up to his knees - shoes, socks and pants included.  What can I say - throwing rocks into the water is so exciting, it's easy to forget where you are!

Possibly his favorite moment, however, was when we walked up the road to where new houses are being built.  Excavator!  Truck!  Crane!  YAY!



And then - icing on the cake - on the walk home, we found some construction debris that we took with us, to dispose of it properly.  Among the nails and such, Grampa found this metal rod, perfect for drawing in the sand:



All this play tired a little boy right out... which led to a heartstring moment for Mommy and Mummy.  Behold: Asa's first time in a big-boy bed.

It's astounding how they can be so big and so little at the same time.
