So happy for our summer days. Here the kids are having fun in the pool. They would never get bored of this, but this time it was different as they got a little cold after about an hour, as the sun started to go and come again. So they didn't mind coming out.



The kids had a lot of fun with these foam letters in the bath tub, they played forever, more than one hour. The letters are a part of Emily's present for being a big girl and going on the potty. She has been potty trained about a week ago and she is doing great, just an accident every once in a while. She learned it in one day, with a couple of accidents in the following 3 days, and even now an accident every once in a while when she is too busy playing and forgets about it. But it worked so much better than we expected, we are happy for our big girl. She is so funny how she asks for her candies and knows it's her right. She always gets them after she goes potty, because she deserves them. The way she asks is "I want a red candie" or "I want a yellow candie" or "I want 3 candies". :-)))

Their feet after a loooong bath
We had some very special days with Joyce before she left to AK. It was nice she had some good time with the kids, who enjoyed her very much. They played together, went for walks, read together etc. These first 2 pictures are good bye pictures, and Emily was so funny that she didn't want to say Good bye, she just said "No good bye" several times, her cute way to say she didn't want Joyce to leave. But... auntie Joyce couldn't listen to her plea unfortunately. We'll miss you auntie Joyce, and we'll talk with you in the meantime. We all love you!



Some interesting things that happen at the table at our house...
