Summer Lovin'

A few things I've been having a blast with this summer...

  • We enjoyed our mini-vacation to Memphis and Hot Springs. I can see why the Memphis Zoo has been rated as one of the best in the country... it's very nice!

  • While we were away on our mini-vacation, my sister-in-law had the audacity to go into labor. So we missed being there for the arrival of Baby M!


She is tiny... weighed only 5 lbs, 12 oz at birth! My girls have dolls bigger than that! But Baby M is much cuter than any doll.


  • The girls did really well in their swim lessons!




I think we may have a future Olympic diver on our hands!


Or maybe not.



  • I can't believe this summer is almost at an end... school starts back in just 19 days!

How has your summer been?

Hey I think that dive was awesome. Much better than I'll ever be able to do! And I so want to go to the Memphis zoo someday.

Love the diving video. Makes me want to go swimming in a pool... we've been living in pond water all summer.. not complaining, but there's somethin about a pool...

Only 19 days!! Wow. I feel like our summer has just begun! We're headed north for vacation on sunday! Can't wait.

School doesn't start til September around here.

Awww sweet baby!!
You were about an hour and a half from me when you went to Hot Springs. I haven't been to the Memphis zoo in years....maybe next year.

Susan said...

I think I'd like 19 more days. Mine go back on Wednesday....

What a sweet baby girl!

She did a better dive than I ever could!! Oh and as I was scrolling down I saw your tweet from yesterday - "big hairy monkey balls!" LOL! I've never heard anyone else say that, thought my group of friends were the only ones. Hope you had fun at the concert.
