Fun with the Heidricks!

The Heidrick family (Jeremy, Julie, Blake 3 1/2 and Natalie 9 months)are in town, visiting from Ventura. I think they brought some California weather, it hasn't been this warm and sunny since maybe November? 
Jakob loves Natalie, of course, he loves babies, especially super cute ones!
Blake is a total boys boy, all about swords, guns, knives, Peter Pan, and pirates! Jakob was in for some schooling on pretend sword fighting (he doesn't get to do this as it's not allowed at preschool and we haven't really done it at home). Jakob and Blake are pretty different, but they got along really well, considering! 
Mark and Jeremy have been working, so the Moms and kids played a bit on Monday and Tuesday. Hopefully we'll all be able to get together at the end of the week!

Jakob and Natalie
All 4 on the Merry Go Round (Sarah and Natalie's first ever ride on the Merry Go Round)

Jakob and Blake carrying a "Captain Hook Sword", as you can see Blake was quite determined to carry this, Jakob was stalling b/c I asked to take a picture.
All of us (minus Natalie, who was napping), looking into the sun!! Julie was the only smart one, who brought her glasses!

Loved the photo's of Sarah and Natalie on the merry-go-round. They look fascinated by the ride and movement.
I am sure you must read bedtime stories to them.
I am the author of a new children's book, which features a merry-go-round. Perhaps the children would like one of the 10 stories in the book.
