I love Summer!

Hi Everyone,

Joshua has been super busy enjoying the gorgeous weather we've had the past couple of days. We've gone to several graduation open house parties, celebrated Father's day with "Papa," played on the swingset, splashed in the pool and celebrated mommy's birthday all in one short week. Summer is the best!

Joshua is growing so quickly. He repeats everything we say and has been putting words together at a rapid pace. The other day we were downstairs playing and he set up his Little People house. He immediately told me that they were hungry for lunch and he fed them french fries, apples, pickles, chicken, peas, and bananas. As he fave the Little People the food he would say, "There you go daddy, there you go mommy, there you go baby." It was adorable!

He is also in love with the water (just like his mom). We spent the entire day outside on Monday and had a blast. He loves getting me all wet and chasing me around with a bucket of water saying, "I go get you!"

Joshua is also helping to plan for his 2nd birthday party. He wants to have Pooh Bear plates, a lot of balloons, cake and bubbles. He is even working on his dance to the Happy Birthday song!

We are also excited to get to know some new people this summer. We've joined up with a MOPS group in the area and are looking forward to Tuesdays at various local parks. It seems to be the perfect fit for both Joshua and his mommy as we get used to having our time together as daddy heads back to work.

Anyway, that's all for now. We have to work on making a memorial stone for sweet little Molly. She was Aunna and Uncle Chuck's "doggy" and she passed away last week. We will all miss her so much.

Have a great week everyone...we'll post again soon!
