Summer Fun

I've been so bad about blogging lately, so I'm uploading tons of stuff for you. We've had a fun summer so far. We have mostly been playing outside when it's not TOO hot. L&D love the water table and sprinkler. Plus we went to the pool for the first time this summer last weekend. They have almost outgrown their little boats we have for them, so we'll have to get new ones eventually (or floaties)! They liked the baby pool, but poor Libby got scared when her face went in the water a little. I hate to see that happen!

Last Saturday, we went back to Great Country Farms for blueberry picking. They hadn't fully ripened, so it was slim pickings, or so we thought. It was HOT and buggy, even with bug spray covering us. But we managed to come home with 3 pints and they are delicious! Already made a batch of Lemon Blueberry Muffins from Deceptively Delicious (snuck in some squash this time). Yum!

Yesterday we went to the public library for the first time. L&D had so much fun. They loved the big stuffed animals and kept kissing them, which I just had to let go out of my germ-o-phobic mind. They don't understand the concept of quiet, but I think most kids were loud like them. Thank goodness! We're gonna try and sign up for some fun library story times and music shows soon, so that should be fun. I was so proud of both Libby and Drew. Drew picked up a book and sat at this table to read all by himself! And Libby took her time looking through them on the floor with me. Thank goodness for cell phone cameras! They're growing up so fast.
