Olivia got a rocket kit for her birthday this year from jonny. She drew a sketch of how she wanted to paint it...hot pink and golden. They built it and painted it. They made a rocket launch pad and then we took it to the park and launched it! It was very exciting. Here is a messy little video of our first launch.

Here are some pictures of lincoln. He made a lotion beard..all by himself! And him playing with a new truck toy he got.

Thank you for leaving that slide of olivia on my bathroom ledge. It was a treat to find and makes me smile and cry every time i look at it. Slides are a beautiful thing..the light behind them brings them to life. Olivia and I were looking at it and she couldn't help but start to talk to the little girl in the slide. It looks so much more real and alive...I thought for a second myself that she may talk back to us. beautiful. We had a wonderful birthday party for her this Saturday. I will post pictures soon (as soon as they are emailed to me..hint hint). School starts tomorrow.
