Summer Lovin'

Now that summer has finally shown up we are soaking it up. He have taking the girls geocaching (which Emily refers to as treasure hunting), played outside, gone to the park, taking countless walks at night. It has been much better then last summer when it was too hot to be outside.

Both Emily and Eliza love being outside. Eliza started walking! A few steps here and there at the end of May/beginning of June and has became a full fledged walker by the end of June. Eliza also loves to climb on any and everything. We have to keep our eye on her because she has become quite mischievous. She likes to eat the rocks from our landscaping and can climb up on the kids picnic table we have. Liza loves to clap and play peek a boo. Her little personality is starting to come out and it has been so much fun seeing how much she has grown and changed just in the last two months

Emily is doing everything full steam ahead. So much so we have had several bumps, bruises, and scratches already this summer. We keep reminding her to slow down a bit. She loves to play princesses and make believe. She has also become quite the drawer. She can spend a lot of time with her doodle pad drawing people. They have become quite intricate and she always remembers when she is drawing mommy to include my glasses. Emmy has developed an excellent memory and soaks up everything.  She is definitely turning into a kid these days. She has an excellent vocabulary and loves learning. She recently moved up into the 3 year old room and loves it.

We are all looking forward to more summer nights, trips to the park, and afternoons in our little pool. We want to take in as much summer as we can because before you know it it will be fall!
