lincoln city

we're in lincoln city through monday. z is doing well sleeping in a big boy bed. the second room has a queen size bed that's really high, so j lined pillows under the covers along each side. we've had fun swimming & exploring the beach. this afternoon we went to get ice cream (well, j & z... the dairy aggravates my cold), but z cried after a couple bites. he doesn't like cold things. i had gotten a cookie, and z ate most of it. we've watched monsters, inc twice now, and started cars this evening (we brought both movies). it's been fairly restful, although it's sometimes a challenge keeping z from destroying this place. the condo is a bit of a disappointment this time. the hot tub on the balcony will not go below 103, which is too hot for z. the hot tub in the pool room is not filled up for some reason. the pool was colder today, so i skipped swimming (and napped - yay!), but j & z had fun. we brought our blow up turtle, which z hadn't used since the very first time we took him swimming in bend. both j & i had fun lounging on it, while we took turns with z. tomorrow we'll go to the aquarium in newport.
oh, and we finally got our tax returns back from the accountant (i had submitted all the information way back on feb 1st!). yay for a refund, but boo for giving the government an interest free loan. estimating taxes with my self employment is pretty difficult, and last year we owed a lot, which wasn't a nice surprise.
