Well, we are still enjoying summer and have gotten ourselves into a nice little routine! The older kids continue to go to camp three days a week. It's been a month and they are still loving it! This is the second year going to this camp and everyday they come home smiling! Annie and Sam are both taking piano lessons with Mark on Wednesday nights. Here is Annie practicing, I must admit since Sam is catching on quickly she has been more motivated to practice!

This picture of Sam is typical, leaning over the pack-n-play helping Timothy fall asleep. Both of the kids are awesome with our new bundle. Even when Timothy is sleeping, they have begun changing their bear's diapers and feeding the bears and moving them around from the bouncy seat to the swing to the crib to their arms. They are getting some good parental practicing in! Sam is enjoying camp 100% more this year. I think it is since he is older and more confident. He is taking karate now, and is one stripe away from moving from white belt to orange belt. He can't wait!

As for my little man, he is a dream! He found his thumb at 8 weeks and since then has begun sleeping 10 hours at night (usually 6 pm to 4 am). (Notice he is always on his tummy!) His vision must be improving since he notices Annie sitting next to him in the car and he watches me move around when I am not holding him. He is a smiley boy and loves a good conversation (and coos back!) His favorite lullaby is Edelweiss from the Sound of Music.

This last picture is pretty random. We have a couple chipmunks that have lived on our property for 3-4 years. These guys come right up to the patio step and torment our cats. Here is one, relaxing on the rocking chair, enjoying the hot summer evening! ;)
