Parties, swimming and negligence...

I am a negligent picture taker...

We have been busy the last few weeks, and I have not captured very many moments on my camera! Addison has been busy with camps, Olivia and Ella have been busy tagging along! We have spent time swimming with friends. Addison tried out Dance the last 2 weeks. She tells me she likes it better than gymnastics...I am not convinced. The dancing was just jumping around to music. Her friend Keyara went also, Keyara prefers gymnastics better. So when I told Addison that Keyara probably was not going to take dance, she said, "well fine I want to do what Keyara is going to do"!!! Nothing like being your own person! The comment was followed by a teaching moment. Addison was invited to a party of one her preschool friends that was at Xenon, which is a hairstyling school. She was having a good time until the girl curling her hair burned her! She was finished after that and did not want her to finsh curling her ahir. I talked her into it, but the curls was as far as it got. No updo or anything!

Poor Olivia still hasn't gotten to do anything yet. She desperatly wants to do gymnastics, or camp or something to be just like her big sister! Someone needs to convince her dad, and then plant a money tree in our front yard please!

Ella, well little miss Ella is growing like a weed. She now has 6 teeth and just tonight started taking some steps while pushing a chair. When we hold her hands to walk in front of us, she just collapses on the floor! She is sleeping much better, depsite the teeth invading her mouth and the terrible diaper rash they give her! We are taking her back to the doctor to see if the 3rd round of antibiotics did the trick to clear up her UTI. If not, well, I would rather not think about the if not. We really aren't sure. Our doctor was supposed to be visiting with some pediatricians and a kidney doctor this last week. Hoping for good news!

We spent Father's Day in York with TOny's mom and dad. We took the girls swimming while Ella stayed with Frank and took a nap. The water was a great tempature and the girls had a blast sliding down the turtle slide. Mamo had popsicles waiting for the girls when we got back and even Ella got to try one!
