sweet nighttime baby
Diamond Lake beach. It's an artificial beach so the sand is great for building sandcastles
Isaac and Mr. Frog make a sandcastle
Ella has been covered in welts this week. Maybe we had a rogue mosquito in our bedroom one night? Glad we are getting new windows soon.
Addy's first day of first grade in our first-day-of-school-shirt. (I can't handle signs so I just use an adult shirt to show growth every year.)
Extra masks for Addy at school, complete with a sequin so hopefully she will be excited to wear them. So far she said she has not minded the masks one bit.
swimming lessons at the community center. Addy and Isaac are in the same class *to reduce exposure* and one other boy. The instructors wear masks and face shields.
Pink Princess half birthday cake for our princess
Complete with a jewel on top
She didn't want to be in her car seat and I didn't want to hold her. So she got to stare at me while I bummed around Menards.
Would you like your hair done by Addy? This is a mohawk.
Happy on Mr Hairy Legs
for how much of a pain our yard is, all the grass and trees are sure pretty, especially when they make long shadows in the evenings.
Ella came to join the morning camping crew
Kit took the kids out to lunch the day before school started. They hit up the classy "Liberty" restaurant for pancakes.
It's been so nice we had dinner outside a few times before the heat came back.
The still image does not quite capture their shivering, blue selves but they mostly like their lessons.
Cute video of Ella entranced by her own hand.
