Davis' Farmland and Scusset Beach

playing in the sand bar at Scusset Beach, Cape Cod

This week Mommy and Layna went to Davis' Farmland, where Layna spent a couple of hours running and playing at the splashpad. She was in heaven ! Afterwards, Layna got to see a bunch of farm animals: goats, lambs, baby cows, piglets and pigs, ducks, chickens, and a lot more goats!

Mommy and Layna joined Grandma and Grandpa Robidoux for another trip to the beach (Scusset Beach). The water was refreshingly cool, and shallow due to lowtide. Layna let Mommy take her into the water with Grandpa. She let him dip in the water and she practiced her kicking and swimming. When the water final was all the way out, the sand bar appeared which is where Layna frolicked and ran and splashed in the water ! Grandpa found a star fish for Layna, which she wasn't afraid of because she didn't understand that it was an animal. She thought it was just a thing; like a rock. She would pick it up and put it down and drop wet sand on it. Also, Grandpa found a crab to show Layna. She was cautious about it, but also got pretty close to it. The one place that Layna can spend all day at without taking a nap and without getting cranky is the beach. We had a lovely day with Grandma and Grandpa.

Also, Layna ate corn on the cob for the first time. Mommy was impressed at how well she did. She was actually taking bites like an adult and eating it all up !
Today, Grandma and Grandpa Robidoux took Layna to a small hot air balloon festival while Mommy napped before work. They told Mommy that Layna behaved, and enjoyed watching the balloons go up; she would say "woah" when they would light up. Also, there was a playground where she went down the slides non stop. It was a pleasant evening with the Grandparents.







Mommy went to get the camera and when she turned around
this baby goat was nibbling at Layna's dress !
