More picking...

Last weekend we did some more berry picking. This time: Blueberries. Less messy and quicker to pick and stuff in your mouth than the strawberries we picked a few weeks ago ...
I thought Ben might actually help us fill our buckets, but as you can see, he mostly stuffed his mouth full of them. His bucket occasionally had about 10 berries in it, but then he would promptly eat the 10 that he just picked for "later".
We got about 4 lbs of berries for $1/ lb. Pretty good deal! But we had to leave before I would have liked, because we couldn't stop Ben from eating them (literally) non-stop.

We had some of that great Northwest summer weather. Finally! - after record highs last week and near record lows earlier this week we were rewarded with 80 and party sunny, so we blew up the old shark pool. Ben played for an hour and a half. His poor little toes were quite pruny by the end of his splash session...

Here's a video of Ben singing London Bridge...
...and another of Ben's future career plan, in which he says he's going to make "money's" to buy bananas.
No big plans for this weekend. Maybe I'll get my car washed...
