I guess it’s only fair that Jimmy has adopted the girls’ birthday scooter, since they appropriated all his birthday toys!
Look how well he does, for only one day’s practice:

Sitting on a hill is great…
Sitting on a hill making funny faces is even better! We ran into some friends of ours at the library today and decided to take a group hike at a nearby park. My girls were ecstatic that not only were they going to get to spend the afternoon with their beloved friends, but they were going to get to tromp through the woods in dresses! Here are the kids midway through the hike – sweaty and loving it!
Although I’ve been there plenty of times before, my friend showed me some trails that were new to me. She even showed us where the wild raspberries were growing: The fun of the afternoon could only be expressed by twirling across an open field! Jimmy practicing blowing bubbles:
Here’s an old video of the girls demonstrating their bubble blowing techniques. They were roughly the same age as Jimmy is now (2.5 years old): We’ll see if Danny demonstrates a similar lack of bubble skills at this age – I guess it’s harder than it looks! We hit our favorite bike trail Sunday night, and the kids all rode their big-wheel trikes down the path as fast as their little legs would carry them. See them way down there?
They wouldn’t stay still long enough for a decent picture! Danny was eager for his turn: Afterwards, we had dinner and ice cream outside where the kids enjoyed picking flowers (a.k.a. weeds): Notice Becky’s shiner on her left eye? Poor kid knocked into her brother’s hard head the other day. Good thing she likes the color purple! It’s been hot here. Really hot. And the hole in the backyard isn’t quite cutting it! So we found some water. And an ice cream parlor. So now our bodies are cool and our tummies are full. That’s a good combination! |
