At the beach in Stonewall this week
Very tanned Thom all ready for bed with his carebear -same one I had when I was little!




1st time siting together in Jeff's car in April -look at the other pictures to see how big Beth is!

Summer is almost 1/2 over I realized today! I was putting away laundry in Thom's room and had to remove some clothes that no longer fit, then it came to me only about a month and a half till Thom starts school (they stagger the start for kindergarden). Wow! Am I ready? I going to miss having him around everyday, he is my big helper with Drew, Beth and getting things I might need. On the flip side, he also argues with his sister and is another person that I am cleaning up after during the day. I am going to miss everything! This chapter of his life is about to end and he will be going to school for the next 13+ years. I am glad that kindergarden is only 1/2 time so I get baby steps befor the everyday full day starts.

Drew is growing like a weed 18lbs and counting and over 26 inches long. Definatley no newborn, he really sped through that stage! He loves; chewing on his hand, fingers, toys, whatever he can fit in his mouth, also holding his feet and talking to them. He rolls over back to front by holding one foot and tipping to the side them letting go of the foot and he's on his tummy! His favourite ryme is patty cake and just in the last 2 days he started laughing for ring around the rosie.

Beth is trying to hold bigger conversations with us and loves to talk about her cloths and acessories- like her honey bee bathingsuit, horse PJ's, Dora pants, monkey purse, basically anything thing on the clothes.Beth runs thru the house to find Jeff and me then start the show and tell! She just this week reaaly started loving the pool! Previously she would only go in with a death grip on Jeff or my neck-now she gets her life jacket and floater and crys when it is time to get out of the pool!

Such changes in all the kids in a small time period!
