The Best of June

Emerson and I are happy to have Eleanor home for the summer- she is great at sharing toys and playing with her little brother

She loves to get in the crib with Emerson after nap

They are so sweet to each other

Although it looks like Emerson is escaping, he loves the attention from his big sister!

Our friend, Ethan, turned 3 and he had an awesome Diego birthday party- here Eleanor is showing us her clue cards

Emerson was showing off his new hat & hanging with his awesome Daddy

Check out Eleanor's bird feeder

Emerson is a boy with many expressions

And an independent spirit to get his own snacks

Eleanor had an awesome time at Vacation Bible School at St. Philip Neri- she learned some great new songs and the movements for them

Emerson has become more interested in the kitchen, which is always helpful when Mommy has to cook

Emerson got a new carseat and he really likes it!

Unfortunately, Emerson and his friend, Charlie, did not like the sprayground

But Eleanor was happy to be on the swings

These friends go to different schools so they don't see each other often, but when they get together it's like no time has passed

Eleanor took swim lessons at Winthrop & it really helped with her confidence- we hope to do them again next summer there (my favorite part was that it was inside- no sunscreen needed!)

Our neighbor, Princess Campbell, came over to play often & it made the summer so much fun!

June 24th was a happy day for Eleanor- the opening day of Cars 2, the movie- so Mommy & Daddy got a sitter for Emerson so we could take Eleanor alone to see it

Who's got a coffee filter on his head? This cute guy :)
