Summertime

For a month I've felt bad that my current post was "The Scream." It turns out the boys had terrible sore throats which turned into terrible colds. Teething, on the other hand, isn't so bad. Between the two of them they now boast 10 teeth.

On a more positive note, after we recovered from the 2 week cold and restocked all of the boxes of kleenex in the house, we've had a lot of fun. Here are some of the highlights.


Sam likes to ride around the house in his backpack and do chores with me instead of taking his late afternoon nap. He loves to pull my hair and steal the phone from me but he is a very good listener! In this picture he's saying "Giddyup, Mom!"
Here are some pictures our our first family picnic. Mom and Dad didn't have time to eat anything and the babies' menu was oatmeal, applesauce and sweet potatoes.



Here my friend and I are still alive after kayaking on the Potomac. Supposedly downstream was going to be easier than up, but the current was so strong it pulled us in all the wrong directions. We finally figured out how to go in a straight line and made it back to the dock!

Life is good. The boys are sweet. I love my husband and summertime!
