Just Hanging Out

ah, the lazy days of summer.....

Actually, these pictures were taken around 10:00 in the morning, after feeding April, showering, breakfast, folding and putting away laundry, putting April down for a nap, Chloe's breakfast, changing into 'real' clothes, more laundry, unloading the dishwasher, and feeding April again.....

So maybe not too lazy, but still wonderful :)

Chloe was hard at work on a drawing....in between stares across the street to the roofers working at our neighbors house. April was happy in her bouncy seat watching the world go by.


Simple joys:



I asked Chloe to show me her drawing:

and then I asked if I could take a picture :) Here is her masterpiece:

Looks like a great day so far! Isn't it amazing what a mom gets done by mid-morning?! I have been meaning to comment on your blog for several posts now, but my thoughts fit equally well for this one -- both girls are beautiful and I am excited to see you guys in a few weeks! :)

Spring has sprung?

This week has brought some strange weather! On Saturday, it was freezing while we watched Peter's baseball game - it was the "late night, under the lights" 8:00 pm game. and my toes were numb when the game was over. Then, Sunday was beautiful weather to watch soccer! April scored TWO goals in her game! We had a silent-auction at a church lunch on Sunday to raise money for the Youth Group Missions Trip. Peter bid on a cooler full of interesting flavored soda-pop....and he won! The first one he tried? Pickle Pop.  For a few years, our neighborhood has been the area of choice for a few mallard ducks to nest. The momma duck picked my neighbors' driveway this year...it seems like Spring must be coming if there are eggs!

Camping Trips #2 and #3

At the beginning of August, we went on a camping trip with my immediate family. We had great campsites, right next to each other, and had fabulous weather. Chloe had a great time hanging out with her Aunt Laura, Uncle Bill, and Aunt Michelle: She also loved my dad's cell phone ringtone: Who says you can't eat great food while you're camping? Check out our dinner feast on Saturday night....Corn on the cob, cheeseburgers, grilled pineapple: Chloe had her first taste of the "beach" when we went to the lake one day. It was the first time she was in the sand, and I think she really liked it! When looking back at the camping pictures, I realized that Chloe wore a lot of hats on this trip: We got back from a Cousins Camping Trip on Sunday night. (Almost) All my cousins got together for the weekend and we had a great time. Another camping trip with good campsites and this time we just had okay weather. It rained Saturday night so everything was a bit soggy on Sunday ...
