Swim Swim

We spent our first two weeks in June doing swimming lessons at Auburn Aquatics. Sophie loved them this year! We had a full class and she got to have most of her friends join her. Her favorite parts were the singing, catching the balls, and leaning off of the side as if she was "jumping in." She slowly got use to the kick board and loved it the last two days of class and she's still not a fan of floating on her stomach or her back. We had a blast!

 Last Day of Swimming Lessons


 Daddy even got to do swim lessons one day! 

 First Day of Lessons! She wasn't too thrilled about her lessons. 

 Getting ready to leave for our first day of swim lessons! 




Sweet Friends!

Sweet Summer Time

Sophie turned 17 months yesterday! Time please slow quickly down! She's literally into everything! If I'm going from room to room cleaning or putting something away, she stays right there with me and I love it. She can find pretty much anything in any room to entertain herself. She is such a joyful, observant, babbling sweetheart! I love watching her imaginative play. We have had such a fun and busy summer together. I'm soaking up all this time with her. Here are just a few exciting things Sophie loves to do currently.

She loves to play outside and blow bubbles. She loves to swim in her little blue pool and yell for Augie to come inside. She goes, "Augie, come on!" It is too precious! She even helps mommy crate the dogs before we leave to go somewhere.





She loves to climb in and out of the laundry basket with her baby Sophia or other baby. She's a climber! 


She cracks me up during dinner preparation because she helps mommy by taking out bowls and spatulas and "cooks."


She loves to carry purses, buckets, etc. around the house and outside. She LOVES to put items into her purse, bucket, etc. and take them out. She will carry her baby or stuffed animal around by the neck, along with a purse or even a ball. She helps mommy clean the floors too. :) 



She also loves to sit in her chair or on steps. She likes to sit anywhere she can squat down to.



As you can see, we are really enjoying our summer together! We especially love it on days when daddy isn't working and he gets to enjoy all the fun activities with us! We will share more of our summer adventures...

Southern Love,
Tricia
