Happy Father's Day, Peter, Gumbo, Grandpa, and Pa! We had a great Father's Day. First we had breakfast with Gumbo, Bee, Katie, and the Carvilles. Then we later had dinner at Zea--Betsy wanted ribs. She loves ribs.
We have lots of birthdays this week--Happy Birthday, y'all! We celebrated Katie's, Jama's, and Bobby's birthdays on Tuesday night at Jama and Pa's. Although Bobby was in Australia, we felt like he was there because we skyped with him.
The last day of this session of camp is Friday. Then there is a two week break before the next session. Betsy has absolutely loved camp; she swims, paints, reads, and plays with old and new friends. Since Lawson is now in a big girl carseat I can pick Attie and Lawsy up after bringing B to camp, and we can have adventures. We took them to the Children's Museum last week, and they had a ball and it was nice and cool in there. The girls went wild in the new Little Winn Dixie.
Last weekend we went to dinner at Ninja and both girls liked their sushi and squid salad. Ninja has the coolest plates for their kid's dinners; they are little Japanese airplanes. After dinner we had gelato--as per the sign in Gelato Pazzo a small serving only has 4 grams of fat and 131 calories--I sort of can't believe it, because it's so yummy.
On Saturday Peter went fishing with Grandpa, and Attie and I took the girls to JCP to have pictures taken. The pictures came out pretty good, but usually the girls are hysterically crying yet the pics are great. This time the girls were great, but the pics were OK. On Saturday night we had dinner with a bunch of members of the Green family. We had such a great time catching up with everyone, and the kids had so much fun playing together.
It is so so so hot. Yesterday I walked B to camp, and by the time I got home I was dying. This morning I got up and went to the Park at 6. It was 83 degrees, but it was a lot cooler than it was yesterday at 9.
We had birthday PJ's with Katie, Attie, and Lawsy this morning. It was so much fun to hang out. The girls kept taking each other's water and fooling with everything and generally having a wonderful time. Love you, Katie--hope you had a nice dinner tonight!
Sadie highlights--she has started to climb on things (yikes); she says "uh oh" a lot (very cute); she has a tooth coming in (finally); she is still just about to walk; she loves dancing; she calls Betsy and Lawson "Betty;" she loves my Cooking Light fettucine alfredo; she loooooooooves milk; she says ball, book, brush, and happy.
Betsy highlights--B is not fond of the heat--she screams it's hot as soon as we get in the car then freaks out when I turn on the air and yells, "no air!" even when I explain every time that the air will cool us off; B is a great artist--much, much better than I was at her age; sometimes she'll ask me something and say, "Tell me da troof."
