Sleep

posted this on facebook with the caption of Annika's current theme song...just kidding, but having difficulty falling asleep when really tired.

Caleb when stopping on his own to get out of the way of a car pulling up to a house: "I bet she thought, 'that kid is too little to be riding without training wheels!'"

Caleb is growing up. He is talking more like an adult, even cracks an occasional joke that we all laugh at.

Annika, always the jokester likes to get a rise out of Grammy by going up to her with her finger up her nose. She's not even a nose picker but Grammy can't help herself and always pulls Annika's hand away and says 'ick' or something and Annika laughs her wonderful belly laugh. It's continuous fun for Annika.

Yesterday my mom played wiffle ball with Caleb and he hit a few! Also Caleb was really proud of himself for walking across the wobbly bridge at a park without being scared. He went through a phase where parks totally got to him and he is very happy to have overcome his fears.

Hanging out with Grandma Evie in Park City



Caleb, Annika, Rodrick, Jules, Miley, Grandma Evie and I had four very fun filled days in Park City.  Highlights included a lot of bike riding (including Caleb's first time without training wheels), chasing dogs round, laying around watching the Tour de France, lots of coloring and Play-Dough, two failed attempts to go camping (one time the campground was full the other time rain/lightening), Saturday concert at Canyons, Park Silly Market, pictures with the bear on the bench, bouncy house, dinner at Aunt Marie's, baths with bubbles and jets, Cars 2, doing the actions to the Caleb the Cowboy song, BBQ hot dogs, and inadvertently taking late naps and staying up late.  All in all, a very fun few days!




Caleb and I stayed up a bit later doing this big dinosaur puzzle a couple of times.  Caleb is getting really good at puzzles!









  









Everyone says that Annika looks like Grandma Evie did when she was a little girl.
