Around the House

Oops!  So much for more frequent blogging.  Where did June go?  I did a separate post with our June adventures, but here are a few "around the house" shots of our daily life:

 We resurrected the blow-up pool we bought while we were in Trinidad

 Play-doh is great for rainy day fun

 Nicholas got his yellow belt in Tai Kwo Do!  It's great to see his improvement.  He is so proud of himself now that he can hang on the rope for a full 10 seconds.

 Can't wait until they are old enough to vacuum for real!

 Both kids love Lego right now, and Nicholas especially loves making Lego airplanes.

 Claire is crazy about shoes and always has to have a pair on, or her slippers around the house.

 Ants on a log!  I never liked this childhood staple myself., since I don't like celery or raisins.  Nicholas likes all three components though, so I thought it would be big hit with him.  I was surprised that he was really skeptical at first, but once I convinced him to try one he gobbled them all up!

 We are a waffle-loving family.  Nicholas has now decided that rather than choose one topping, he'll have a little bit of everything:  peanut butter, Nutella, jelly, and butter with syrup!


Claire, on the other hand, is decidedly a Nutella fan!

 Nicholas is starting to write his letters... "N" for "Nicholas"!

Loving the homemade snow cones (in a bowl)

Claire, too!
