Busy week back

~Cicadas are interesting, LOUD and stupid bugs. I especially dislike getting peed on by them while playing in the backyard. I'm looking forward to having all the birds back in our yard.
~On Tuesday, James started a month of summer school. He was so happy his friend Finn was there.
~Hannah, David and I enjoyed a trip to Walk about Acres on Tuesday. We saw peacocks, emus, turkeys, ducks, pigs, goats, cats and kittens and the honey bees. Then we went to the store and enjoyed honey icecream. It was a fun time with friends.


~On Wednesday we went with the Kiffes to the spraypark. The kids had a fantastic time playing in the water. I sat David beside a spray spout and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He kept putting his hand in the water and when it sprayed him in the face, he just started licking his lips. We seem to have another water baby.:)
~James woke up yesterday morning and when I asked him if he had a good night's sleep, he said he had "a great sleep!". He then proceeded to tell me about his dream of South America and how Daddy asked him to push him into the snow.
~Yesterday, I took Hannah to the ceramics store in town with some other MOPS moms and she painted her own piggy bank. They had a guinea pig that she especially enjoyed petting. I think that she might be most excited when she gets to take it home next week.
~David is starting to get the hang of his jumper and what it does. Our doorways are low, so he doesn't get much of a hang to get some really good jumps.
~We had a nice time visiting with new friends last night and enjoying their fresh from the farm lamb dinner. Hannah and Mark really liked the lamb. Perhaps we can add it to our dinner menu at home.
