Possible fossils, but we are new to this!

My kiddo is super into fossils at the moment and the best place for us to look is the Blakeley Formation in Seattle.  We spotted a few interesting things at low tide but we have no idea if they are fossils or not!  Any help would be appreciated!

Welcome to TFF from Austria!

 

In the first pic I see many recent barnacles; the brownish part seems to be a tectonic breccia of some sort.

 

Second pic shows - in my opinion - some mineral growth in a crack, with one of the rocks bordering the crack removed. Or maybe some kind of recent organism growing on the surface of the rock, I am not quite sure.

 

Summary: At first glance - no fossils.
