We have had a fun and busy summer! We had visitors from Utah, and Indiana. We have visited Jonny in Ft. Wayne and family in Bloomington. We went to every fun thing to do in Cincinnati. Including the zoo, the childrens museum, the aquarium, the movies and kings island. We caught fireflies and let them go....many times. We sliped and slided and swam. I am tired. But the kids don't seem to be. They could go go go forever. Lincoln has learned to walk and he is in love with the new carpet on the stairs...he is up and down them all day and always want me to help him. Although he can fly up and down them with ease going backwards, He wants to lean how to walk down them forward like a big person i guess. Olivia got a letter from her new teacher...she is quite excited, and I am excited for her. She starts on August 19th...four days after she turns 5! She was telling me the other day how much she loves to think. " I love to just think and think and think" she claims.
We have been doing the summer reading program at the library this summer. Basically we just read like we always do...but on wednesday when we go to story time Olivia gets a toy prize! I love the library...we get new books every week. Puppet shows and crafts. And movie rentals .....all for free!
Our garden is starting to do well, We have lots of tomatoes on every plant. We have peppers and little baby cucumber starts. We have alot of carrots and a watermelon plant with nothing on it yet. I am so anxious to get the fruit and veggies from it. Olivia always asks "when its time to pick the tomatoes can i do it?" I am happy she likes the garden...she really loved when we planted. She found all sorts of worms and bugs. And now she gets to see what turns out of all those seeds she put in the dirt. It really is amazing.

Sorry to all friends and family for such a long time between posts. I don't have a lot of new happenings but i will add some great pictures and videos this time. It is finally warm and the kids couldn't be more excited. We get to eat dinner outside and play in the muddy garden...it doesn't get much better. Lincoln is still not walking, but he is thinking about it. He has started to push things around in front of him. He always gets quite excited about it too. Olivia is well. She had 4 shots at the doctor a few weeks ago. You may have thought by the sound coming from the examining room that she was having an arm removed. She Got her bike, and jonny ordered all the parts to make it new and fancy. It is coming along and will be so cute. She had decided on the color MAGENTA!
We were playing a few rounds of "Hungry Hungry Hippos" the other day. Olivia really likes playing this game, anyway Lincoln saw what we were doing and he got sooo excited and just started screaming and screaming and hitting the game board. He was quite passionate about the game. Sadly his Hippo never did win.
