June 2013

We were so busy this month and got lots of pictures because I’m not working!  It has been so awesome.  I can sit and read novels outside while the kids ride their bikes, or read on the couch while Eli naps and Halle plays with friends.  I can bake with Halle, we call them Treat Tuesdays.  I can have dinner ready everyday promptly at 5:30 when Jared walks in the door, and that dinner will have multiple courses including fruits and veggies.  I know we’re eating healthier, and I’m enjoying taking my time cooking meals.  So, here’s what we did in June, with the exception of our trip to Alaska.

Aunt Janae fostered a pregnant chihuahua. She had 3 puppies which Eli named Blackie, Eli, and Paepa.  Halle didn’t want to hold them, then she finally got brave enough to hold 1, then 2, then all 3.  She go to watch them nurse and thought that was pretty cool.

What a fun month! I'm excited to read about Alaska! That's really cool that your kids got to watch the baby birds grow and learn. Good to see you're using your egg cartons!!
