We're still alive!

Hello again...I am back from my summer blogging hiatus! ;) We've been busy having lots of fun. Let me fill you in on a little bit of what we've been up to! Hang with me, this is going to be a long one! Jake loves being outside so, for me, that means a lot of sweating!

He loves the water so one of his favorite activities is playing on the water slide. Here is some of the action. I have a feeling we will make at least one trip to the emergency room with this child.




We look at earth worms

Mow lots of grass

Abbie Kate, Jake's cousin, got to spend a week in Arkansas! We had so much fun that Jake did not know what to do when she was gone. We took a trip downtown for the day and did lots of fun things. At the Peabody, we watched the infamous ducks make their grand entrance into the fountain for the day. We were joined by Katy, Owen, Melissa, Tre and Mya.

If you have never had a chance to see the ducks for yourself, here is your chance




We also had a picnic, played on the playground and splash pad, had push pops and rode the trolley!





We made another trip to Chucky E Cheese and, thankfully, Chucky never made an appearance.

Jake loves horses so we used most of our tokens here.




The library had the Game and Fish commission come for story time and they brought along the mobile aquarium. The kids loved looking at the "fishies" as Jake would say.





There is so much more I could share. Jake is growing into a little boy so fast these days. He is talking tons more and is just so much fun. But, I will save that for another day. ;)
