Catch Up Post

I have not been the best blogger lately. It has been an incredibly busy couple of months so I am having trouble keeping up with the blog. I usually try and get a few hours on the weekend and draft posts and schedule them to post during the week. But in July weekends have been booked and then finding time during the week has just not happened. So this is a mish mash post of a bunch of things in the hope that I can catch up.

Ally and Becky went to the zoo and saw not only the typical zoo animals like the gorillas and lemurs, but also a bunny rabbit and “the largest slug Becky has ever seen”.

Becky got her hair cut and wanted to remember how to style it so she took a bunch of pictures of herself.

The quilt was made by Becky, Beth and their mom Debbie – it’s a baby gift for cousin Jake, his wife Kim and their new baby Aidan who was born on July 4. The 3 of them have mailed the quilt and pieces back and forth and it was truly a collaborative effort.

Ally got new pajamas it was tricky to find her among all the pink on her bed!

Our public libraries have a great series of summer programs for kids where they bring in all kinds of entertainers and acts for kids. Its all for free. One day after camp Ally and Becky met Willow and her mom for the Reptile Show.

Ally is growing up so fast – long hair, amazing gymnastics skills, she is talking up a storm, and has grown an inch since January!

It has been a very busy month.  August promises to be fun filled as well.
