Cabin Fun!

The last week we have gone from cabin to cabin. It is the best! We swim and fish on the dock all day long. We play hard all day, take a little snooze in the afternoon and stay awake till the moon comes up. It doesn't get any better than this.

I managed to stay on Shamus back for a short while.

Here we are fishing on the dock in our pajamas at the P cabin.

Here is Bub fishing at the M cabin. Another beautiful day in the sun. This is where we spent the 4th of July. We watched an excellent fireworks show!

Sunbathing - good thing Mom cakes on the SPF 50.

Bub has come a long way. He used to not want to touch any sand or grass. Now he smashed sand all over his face and lays in it. Silly Bub!

Our trip to the Zoo

Here we are looking at the Bald Eagle. It is huge and it can spread his wings way longer than we could reach! He calmly sat there on the branch looking at us.

Here we were checking out the beavers.

What a fun day at the zoo. After a long afternoon of checking out all of the animals we decided to have a yummy ice cream treat. Bub got chocolate his favorite. I got strawberry, Mommy got orange and Daddy got mint. They were so big that none of us were able to finish the whole thing.



When we were checking out the underwater sea creatures Daddy lifted us over the water so we could each touch a sea urchin. They feel neat and they move like grass under water. Even Bub decided to give it a try.

Turtles and Minnows

Daddy left a surprise for us when we got home one day. He had a turtle in a bucket on our back patio. We played with it for a little while and Mommy held it so we could touch it. The bottom was so colorful and it is called a painter turtle. He seemed a little scared so we decided to let him go in our river behind our home. Punk named him brave.
Later, we went for a long walk and checked out the little river for minnows. We live in a fun spot to explore.

Happy 85th Great G. P

We sure did have a good time at Great G. P's 85th birthday party. It was a beautiful day with light showers sprinkling down every now and then. But that was ok, it gave us a fun reason to play with G.'s umbrella. She has the neatest willow tree that we loved playing in.

We had such a great time up the cabin for the long weekend. We road up in the camper with lot's of family and it was super fun. We sure are lucky kids that we have 3 cabins in our family...spoiled!

Happy Mother's Day!

We had such a fun weekend with our mommy. Saturday mom and I went to our mother daughter banquet. The food was delicious and I had fun making crafts while she listen to some lady talk. Mom says it was way more than just a "lady talk" so if you want to know more I guess you'll have to ask her about it. We spent the weekend up at G. & G. M's.

Sunday we came home to spend family time at our house. That' s our favorite!
We love our mommy and she knows it!!! She is one lucky lady...with how much love Bub and I give her (along with daddy)...I don't know what she is going to do with even more love from #3.
nothing to complain about that's for sure!

I would like to say Congrats to Bub!! He gave up his nuks and potty trained all in one day. He is going 2 weeks strong and mom & dad can't even believe it! He grew up before we could even turn around. We love you, Bub.

Five

Going to preschool sure is fun. I am in the front room (4 & 5 year olds) and Bub is in the back room (3 year olds). We learn new stuff every day. Right now Bub is really working on his colors, shapes, patterns and alphabet...which he knows all the letters and their sounds! We are working on stuff a little more advanced like writing, reading and numbers. Speaking of numbers check this out-

A 6 piece chicken nugget, Bub eats 1 = 5

My age = 5

3 kids on the monkey bars and 2 on the slide = 5

Books we would like to read before bed (7) minus what mom says we can read (2) = 5

The age I will be when I start kindergarten = 5

1 cereal bar for Bub and 4 fruit snacks for me = 5

2 days home with dad and 3 days at daycare = 5

Dad, Mom, me and Bub + 1 = 5
