Some of my favorite pictures from the last month. Summer is going fast, we've been really busy. Nathan completed 4 weeks of swimming lessons, he's becoming a little fish. He is diving down to retrieve things from the bottom of the pool, better than mommy already. He is also on a t-ball/coach pitch team at the Y. He is not yet passionate about baseball (passion is still trains) but he does enjoy it and is doing well. He is also loving riding his bike, still training wheels, but can go all over. I was so proud of him the other night at the Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo. Though a cautious little boy, he did the prelim round of 'Mutton Bustin'. He was trampled but didn't cry and is up for a re-ride. Not sure if he was actually on the sheep as it left the gate; he had a tear in his jeans so maybe he got hung up on the gate. The video is terrible because I forgot about the camera to see with my own eyes if he was okay, but here it is.

Whitney loves being outside. She enjoys riding on the seat that sits on the handle bars of my bike. She thinks swimming is a lot of fun and loves flailing around the kiddie pool and jumping to us in the big pool; even off the diving board as she is pretty fearless. Sad to report that we are still potty training. She has the potty mastered but the other is yet to happen very often. As of right now, I'm pretty sure one of her passions is singing. I asked her if she was going to be a singer like Grandma and she sung back her response 'I'm gonna be a singer like Grandma'. She still blows us away with her advanced vocabulary. She is starting to give up nap time a couple times per week. Not in a big girl bed but loves to sleep in Nathan's bed, maybe she'll get her own soon.
