Happy Summer!

We traveled down to see our dear friends, Beth and Jimmy, over the fourth of July weekend. Timothy traveled pretty good in the car- he did better when I sat in the back and he could see me. He slept like a champ in the hotel and allowed all of us to sleep in until 8 am! Beth had a bbq on Saturday and she and I had attempted to make a layered jello-cake in the shape of a flag. Needless to say Mark had to come and try to rescue it before dinner!

Annie and Sam loved swimming in the hotel pool and the pool at Beth and Jimmy's all weekend. I thought they would become tired of the pool since they swim at camp three days a week, but they didn't!

Fireworks were rained out, so we just hung out and chillaxed, playing Wii Fit (hilarious with the kids!), giving each other tattoos and going out to dinner. It was a wonderful, relaxing weekend.

As for Timothy, he is growing like a weed! He is smiling and laughing most of the day and putting himself to sleep. He is sleeping 5 hours now for his first stretch of the evening and getting into a nice pattern during the day. He is growing out of his 3 month clothes (sad) but it is fun to watch him grow- being able to bat at objects now, follow noises with his head, interact with the kids. Moving from two to three kids has been one of the easiest transitions of my life!
