Fun in the sun!

Man, it's hot. My car thermometer has reached 107 degrees. Yuk. Kaycee and Haylee have had a lot of fun playing in the pool and on the slip-n-slide in the back yard.
We packed a picnic lunch and went to Miss Mindy's community pool a few days ago and had a great time.








Kaycee is going to Buddy Camp at our church. It is a Tuesday/Thursday program for kids to pair up with a buddy and practice reading for an hour so they don't lose any skills over the summer. She is doing very well. They want to bump her up to a 2nd grade level already. She FINALLY lost her 4th tooth a few days ago. She got up the nerve to let Andy pull it. She's known for a while who the real toothfairy is, but decided she would still like to pretend anyway. Somehow, the price of teeth has gone up since I was a kid. Hmmmmm!

Haylee's birthday is coming up. On August 4th, she will be 3 years old! It's hard to believe. She will be having an "Ai-weel" (Ariel-Little Mermaid) cake and she is just thrilled. She goes around the house singing "Up where they walk, up where they run, up where they staaaaaaay all day in the sun" at the top of her lungs. On the way to church today, she burst into her own rendition of "How Great Thou Art". It was SOOOOO cute. She got all the words right, too and was so proud of herself. That was short lived as she got VERY upset when Kaycee tried to join in. Clearly, it was HER song. It ended with mommy saying," ok, now NOBODY can sing!" KIDS!

Here is a sample of what we heard in the car:

We've enjoyed getting to know baby Caleb better. Caleb is the son of Andy's business partner. He is so sweet! Even with his little retainer in (which can't be comfortable), he's so easy going. I believe his first surgery is scheduled for sometime in September. Kaycee felt so grown up being able to hold him all by herself.
