Excitement in the Pepper house this July:
Abigail is walking! She picks up her baby dolls and carries them around, patting their backs. She loves playing "Ah-doo" (Peek-a-boo) and helping me to cook and paddling/kicking around the pool in her sea star. And she loves being upside down.
Betsy is swimming! She said she wanted to learn to swim all the way across the pool this summer, and she did it. Now she wants to spend all her pool time doing cannonballs and jackknifes into the deep end. A huge improvement over the beginning of the summer, when both kids spent their entire pool time clinging to me like kicking barnacles.
Other assorted fun this summer:
Playing games. Uno, Sorry, Candyland, Tell-A-Story.
Getting outside with friends. Playdates at Lake Montclair, camping trips to Camp Hebron and Prince William Forest Park, exploring Brookside Gardens.
Spontaneous summer fun. Movies in the middle of the day with my dad. Living room dance parties. Picnics in the park.
Planning upcoming summer fun. Crafting up a storm for a baby shower we're throwing. Dreaming of our upcoming trip to Maine. Plotting birthday party fun for all of our August babies.
And since the end of this month will mark our 7th wedding anniversary, Matthew and I are hoping to go out on an actual date soon. Without the children.
