JULY

All ready for the 4th of July!!

We have been keeping plenty busy swimming and hanging out around the house. Colbie is getting so big. She is sort of army crawling...scooting on her belly by pushing her toes along the floor. It is pretty cute! She is also trying tons of new foods, spinach is the most recent. She loves her baths and the grass (sounds strange but she dives for the grass!). Averie is a swimming fool. She loves the pool and swims all over. She would spend all day in the pool if she could. She also has started having "rest" time instead of nap. We put paper and craft stuff along with puzzles, books and her easel in the guest room. She can do crafts, color and play during naps. If she is tired she can rest on the bed in there too. Baylor is doing great! He loves digging in the dirt and riding his bike and his tractor. He is a helper too with tools and working in the mulch with daddy. About two weeks ago we went to Put-In-Bay and had a wonderful time. Pics coming after I do this post... we rode the Ferry Boat and took a golf cart around (the kids two favorite things). We also went to Perry's Cave, the butterfly house and did about 5 of 18 holes of mini-golf (it was HOT!). We got yummy ice cream from "The Chocolate Factory" and discovered a place to play in the water (but the kids were napping when we found the water so we just kept driving around). We had a picnic and the kids played on the playground. What a fun day! They are already talking about going back with grandma and grandpa and getting an 8 seater golf cart. Ha ha. So, now it is the end of July and we are planning a camping trip for the 5 of us. We are taking off tomorrow for our usual place. It should be fun or at least an experience! :o)
