Summer!

Summer seems to be upon us, and what better way to escape the heat than running through the children's water sprinklers at the Botanical Gardens? Christian and Finnan had a ball splashing and screaming in the water. Jude crawled happily around on the side. (Poor Elsa had come with us but didn't feel well and went home early.) I suspect we will be spending a lot of time at the gardens this summer!

Blog Update

My computer has been in the shop for awhile, so I'm quite behind on my blog posts. I'll attempt to catch up over the next week. I've decided I want to use this blog as sort of a diary of our days, so I hope to start posting much more often. Also, I just got a really cool camera and I'm dying to post all of the great photos! Here are a few new pics of Christian.




Airplane Birthday

Instead of having a party for Christian's second birthday, we decided to simply invite his little friend Finnan and his brother Jude to the park for a small celebration. We went to the Peachtree DeKalb Airport, a small, private airport with an airplane-themed playground. Everyone had a great time. The planes take off right next to the playground, which fascinated the kids. We even got to see a helicopter take off! The kids played on the playground, then we had lunch and cake. Happy second birthday Christian!

Being a pilot is a serious job!
