School's out for Summer

Mia enjoys her end of the year picnic at Mandala....

...and then spends her lazy summer days while her brother finishes out his school year hangin' in his bedroom and eating popsicles in the backyard.

A day in the (very rough) life of Mia!

Summer Swimming

We spent a lot of time at the club swimming again this summer.  The kids love going to swim, but also are particularly fond of the lunch menu and treats (Mia thinks that the free popcorn is about the best thing ever).

During their last week of summer vacation, our friends Aidan and Bailey came up to swim with us.  We loved having them visit and hang out with us.  It is hard to believe that school starts for them next week, and for us in just a couple of weeks.  Where did the summer go?

Taking a swim break to enjoy some ice cream treats

Yum!



 Sharing

 Now Bailey somehow has Aidan's popsicle, and is also sharing that with Mia.

 And Aidan's eating Bailey's...but Luke, who smartly picked the Ben & Jerry's bar, is staying out of the sharing and keeping his ice cream to himself!

Popsicles

Such a perfect summertime treat...this was Mia's first

Is Spring here to stay?

Let's hope so because Luke is fully enjoying these outdoor afternoon treats!

We've had such a long, wet winter - I think we're all ready for ice cream, popsicles, and some consistent sunshine!

Oh, and yes, that is Luke sitting in the Bumbo chair that we have out for Mia. He likes to (re)try all of the baby gear out.
