Yard Bird Breakfast

So, we're sitting at breakfast with Grammy a few days ago at this place in town called Yard Bird. The tables there are all set next to each other and one side of the seats are old church pews all pushed up against each other. There are four men at the table next to us. Emma is sitting between me and the man at that table who happens to be the son of someone Grammy knows. So, Grammy strikes up conversation with this man (who happens to be a decent looking guy dressed semi-professionally). Then, this man says hello to Emma. Now, I don't know if you've picked up on the fact that Emma is not Little Miss Friendly when it comes to strangers, especially male strangers and little boys for that matter, but she's not. She usually clams up, hides her face, or says something very rude about how they are creepy or weird looking. Well, not this time. She says hello and proceeds to show him her nail polish and fully engage in a two minute conversation with the random man about her nails and the colors she likes, etc. When she finishes and let's the man return to his meal, I say to her, "Emma, that was very nice! I thought you didn't like boys!" And she looks at me and says, "Welllll, I like BIG boys." Oi. That kid.

September on Facebook

September 1: And, that's TWO kids training wheel free this month! Yay, Ava! Took the kid like 2 min to get this!

September 10: Averaged 10:38 on my 3 mile this morning. So pleased considering 2 weeks ago I was at an upper 12 to low 13 min mile! Think the slightly cooler weather is helping immensely! So nice to walk out the door and not feel like I am under water!

Happy Fourth of July!

Happy Fourth of July! We got up this morning and put on some festive clothes and tried to snap a few fun pictures for the Fourth. Don't you love the headbands? They're one of the things I think the children will look back at and be like, "Mom, what were you thinking?"

Later in the afternoon, we headed over to Miss Rose's house for some swimming and snacking with Grammy, Pa, Uncle E, Uncle Ian, and Miss Rachael.

When we were done swimming and eating, we headed over to the island to watch the fireworks from Nana and Daddy Bill's dock with Aunt Carey and Uncle Nick and their kiddos. It was fun, but it was dark, so I didn't get any pictures. We had a really great time, though I think mosquitoes may have tried to carry off Avery! They sure do love him!
