Swimming Time!!!!

Well, the weather warmed up, so that meant one thing for us...Swimming Time! We got to get back in the water with our favorite swimming teacher, Miss Heather. We did great this year! We were unsure when we started (like always). We did great in the water and remembered everything we were supposed to, but we were just shy getting in. One day Mommy asked who was going first. We decided neither of us wanted to go, so we made Elijah go first! Ha! Mommy put a stop to that real quick, though, and we all had to take turns. By the end we were begging to go first! Here are some pictures from the beginning lessons this summer.

Elijah floating! He learned how to turn over so his face was up and how to float on his back. He did a great job. You can see in this picture he would get on his back and then stiffen his legs. By the end of his lessons he was floating like a pro - all relaxed!

A Good Day

One day in early May we got to run errands with Nanny and Papa, and then we all went to one of our favorite places to eat...Red Robin! Here are some pictures of our little outing with Papa, Nanny, and Mommy:

Elijah was happy to sit in his carseat. If you look closely, you can see that he has one little tooth coming in on the bottom! Here is Jonathan and Nanny:

Here I (Josiah) am with Papa!
We love that we live so close to Nanny and Papa and can do these spur of the moment little 'dates' with them!

More Birthday?!?!

Over a week after Mommy's birthday she decided to go and celebrate some more with her friends. We don't know why we weren't invited to go along...we like all of Mommy's friends, and we like to eat. Anyway, they went to a place called Ah-So, where they cook in front of you. They also ate sushi - Mommy said she actually liked it! We would have LOVED to go with to a restaurant like that. We think you should all tell Mommy and Daddy to take us there next time...

Here are Mommy's friends Miss Heather, Miss Donna, and Miss Amanda: And here are Miss Sheri and Miss Paula:
And this is the YUMMY looking dessert that the gave Mommy for her birthday. Really, someone needs to tell Daddy that we need to go there, too!!
