The lazy days of summer….

Well, it’s been a while since I have posted anything…sorry about that! It seemed
Iike we were waiting forever for the summer to start and the once it did we have been busy enjoying it! So, this is a catch up post to say the least. I am also posting this for the iPad for the first time…if its as easy as I hope it’s, it should bode well for more frequent posts in the future. So, what have we been up to? We’ve been out on the boat somewhat, but the weather doesn’t always seem to cooperate on the weekends…Sophie is trying to learn to ride he bike without training wheels and Max has his own big boy bike as well. It’s a good thing as the little balance bike he was riding was so small for him his knees dragged on the ground! We’ve been to my folks house or some picnics/dinners/garden walks, and spent some time at the beach as well. Max has started swim lessons now and just the other day was able to swim about 5 feet all by himself-so we are getting the slowly. Phew. I can’t wait until both kids are strong swimmers! Sophie is swimming off the boat without her lifejacket, but only when Mark or I are in the water with her. Both kids also did some summer camps too…Soph did a really cool camp through the pacific science center that was all about dinosaurs and archeology and Max did one about bugs. They both seemed to like it and now, the school supply shopping has been done and we are less than 3 weeks away from the start of school! So, with that, here are some pictures of what we’ve been up to!
