Sweet Pictures

Summer is certainly here and we are exhausted! This summer Megan started swim lessons and on the first day she did all kinds of "first's" like jumping in the water, putting her face in the water, and floating on her back. She really likes the lessons and there are 2 teachers for 3 kids which means it's basically a private lesson. She is also starting gymnastics and loves it too, she is constantly doing somersaults in the living room, complete with "ta-da." This week she has VBS at night so she has been exhausted...yet still fighting sleep.

Jacob continues to amaze us with his abilities and strength. He already hits and I fear biting is in his future. He can throw a small ball across the room and moves his hand like he's dribbling a basketball. Yesterday he did a perfect somersault which he practiced and practiced. It seems he is very persistent and sticks with something until he can figure it out...sometimes with stomping of feet and screaming but he gets there!
Here is Megan sleeping sound after a crazy busy day at Panera for a bagel, Menard's for playing (who knew they had an awesome playground for the kids to play on!), swim lessons, and VBS. Notice in the picture she is not just snuggling one friend...she's snuggling 4 friends (mommy penguin, baby penguin, Caillou, and flamingo)!
The kids helped put the silverware away. Jacob threw it in and Megan placed it correctly...until Jacob knocked over the whole thing and Megan feared for her toes!
I found them under the desk brushing teeth the other day...later in the day I realized Jacob turned off the power strip that goes to the computer.
Yet another smile...yet another sticker on his forehead...placed by sister!
