Summer is going by so fast - soon it will all be a blur! Finally the weather is cooperating and we've been able to have some really nice lake days!! Hope you and your families are enjoying the nice weather and making some wonderful memories of the Summer of 2009!
Matt and Andy have been keeping us busy 3-4 nights a week with baseball games. They both love to play and enjoy being with their friends. Feels like we're constantly washing uniforms, filling water bottles, and eating our meals out of concession stands! But let me tell you Ana is becoming quite the sunflower seed spitter - she can crack em and spit out the shell all by herself, but make sure you're not standing too close to her or you'll for sure get some spit on you. We need to work on that part I guess.
Ana's first fish!! Can you see it in the picture?? Look closely or you might miss it. She was pretty proud of herself! She is going to keep Grandpa quite busy with stringing her line & putting the worm on her hook!
The kids are enjoying the new tube - Matt likes to get it rocking and eventually to flip over - Andy doesn't like to ride with Matt - Tina did get on the tube, but was pulled by Dad behind the paddle boat which is just her speed - and Ana LOVES to tube behind the boat!! And she LOVES to go FAST!! This little girl has NO FEAR!! I'm not sure if that is good or bad...
Ana had a wonderful birthday party! Actually she had TWO wonderful birthday parties! The only problem is she now thinks she is five - at her party on the 19th she was 4 and loved to hold up 4 fingers and tell everyone she is now 4 yrs old - at her party on the 21st she confidently held up 5 fingers and told Grandma she was now 5. Smarty pants, she had two birthdays so of course she should be 5!!

Oh I totally understand the BRAVE thing...Bruke doesn't have a scared bone in his body!! He loves everything that might be dangerous! I cannot wait to show Bruke this blog about Ana. I wonder if he might be shocked that Ana is getting to do alot of the fun stuff he is getting to do...I think sometimes he is thinking he is the only one that might have sibling rivalry and had to change everything that he knew from Ethiopia. Love your blog!
