Vacation Day #2

Tony and I eating by the inlet in La Connor, WA

Riley chilling at lunch time

Instead of trying to remember everything I did during vacationa and posting one long blog, I thought it would be a lot more fun posting as I go along.

Yesterday was day #2. Riley got to meet his uncle Matt for his first time and then after he left, my parents, tony, riley, and I headed to Walmart to pick up a few things and then off to La Connor, WA which is about 20 minutes from my parents place. La Connor is a typical seaside town in WA. It's actually an inlet that we are on that's why it looks like a river in the background. Tony got his fish and chips which he was excited about. Can't beat fresh seafood I guess.....I wouldn't know because I don't like it. I had some chicken strips, mom had a small bowel of clam chowder and a hot roast beef sandwhich, and dad had a giant bowel of clam chowder. My mom decided to let Riley try some clam chowder (don't panic people, just the broth part, he did not eat any clams). Now, if anyone knows what has been going on with Riley---he will not eat passed his cereal in the morning until his dinner at 7 pm. He still will not eat any snacks, eat vegetables, or drink anything at all. We have to force stuff down him. It's weird because he doesn't fuss until he is ready to eat. Of course we figured he would hate clam chowder but grandma thought it would be fun for him to give it a whirl....and he LOVED it. He ate one of the biggest amounts I have ever seen him eat. Once my mom ran out, he helped grandpa with his bowel and then we had to order a 2nd big bowel which he ate at least 2 tablespoons of that and we brought the rest home. I couldn't believe it. That was his first time eating people foo. He didn't get sick or anything. I was a little worried about the richness but he ate it right up and no diarreah. Strange....

After lunch, we walked around La Connor which is pretty small. We looked around in a few shots and got some icecream before we left. We came back to my parents place. I caught another fish and I think Tony caught 2. It was nice and relaxing.
