Start of Summer

Sorry it's been so long since I last posted. My summer didn't begin until a week ago and in the past week I've tried to get caught up on all the doctor and dentist appointments we've been putting off for me and Sofia, in addition to throwing in swim lessons and still showing our house... Needless to say, it's been very busy around here.

One afternoon, Sofia put several of her stuffed animals to bed. They were covered with a blanket until I moved it to see what was underneath.

Swim lessons. She's now ready for the next step; swim lessons without Mommy!

Thanks Reese!

After Daddy got home on Sia's birthday, we took a trip to Build-a-Bear where Sia picked out a pink flamingo and named it Amingo.

We ended the day with cupcakes!

The next day Sofia got to play in her new flower sprinkler twice. She (and Daddy) had a ball.

Time for hide and seek.

Hint: She's hiding.

Our happy dog.

Can you tell she ate a cupcake with pink icing?

Sia's birthday party was at Chuck E Cheese's. She wasn't so sure about things when we first arrived.

Last "game" before time to leave.

Sia's last official day with her in-home daycare provider was on Monday. She's been with her for 2 years. We'll miss you!
