Happy Anniversary

Will and I got to go out and celebrate our anniversary last weekend. We had a great time, and it was so nice to enjoy a meal - just the two of us.

We tried to get a family picture before we went. However, Seth just wanted Barb to hold him (Barb was taking the picture).

Mid-June through early July

Summer is just rolling along. We enjoy riding bikes in the morning before it is too hot, swimming and playing at the YMCA. I caught the twins in the chair together - it's not too often they climb in here together, but it happens. They also ate a few meals at the little table. They did really well the first couple of meals. Then they wanted to get up and wander around the kitchen. Of course Nathaniel had to eat with them also. He is the kindest big brother and wants to be with them, no matter what they are doing. This morning he was awake and reading in his bed when I came upstairs to get the twins up. He said he was ready to see his brothers. He loves them so much.

Nathaniel and Seth. Seth laid exactly like Nathaniel was on the floor.

Seth loves cake

Seth loves cake. We made Will the cake for Father's Day, and now Seth asks for it all of the time. Any baked good that might resemble cake is called "cake." If he sees tupperware that looks like the tupperware we stored the cake inside of, he thinks cake must be inside. If he doesn't like what he's having for dinner he asks for cake.

The boys are saying many other words too.
-outside
-hippo
-blanket (sometimes blanky, but sounds more like "kiki")
-no
-Barbara
-stick
