Camping

Everyone enjoyed camping at Lake Easton this weekend: soccer, baseball, a 2-mile hike (Alex walked by himself!), the beach, jumping around in the tent, the campfire, and marshmallows (sometimes Julia couldn't wait til they were roasted). Then, Alex went to his first movie - Cars 2. He really enjoyed it.

Summer is here! We have been:
-- swimming (indoors)
-- playing baseball
-- playing tennis
-- playing with Brock and Cayden
-- playing soccer
and getting outside whenever we can.

Alex has become obsessed with the ipad. On the ipad, he has mastered some math and phonics games and has learned a lot about the solar system.

Julia has been talking about going outside, shoes, socks, more, yes, no, Mommy, Daddy, Alex, what is hers, and she used the pronoun "I" for the first time on Sunday. She hid Daddy's socks and then laughed as she ran away while saying "I go".

The kids gave Daddy a nice candy bar and card for Father's day. Julia got distracted and tried to eat it.

Worst Invention Ever...

...Crayola colored bubbles. Alex and Julia had fun making a giant mess outside this afternoon.


They also had fun yesterday waiting for Dad to cross the finish line of his 100-mile bike ride and at Gabe's party at Little Gym. Julia especially loved jumping and tumbling. She loved it so much she set up a little mat in the garage and practiced her somersaults.
