A couple weekends ago we had a cookout with our neighbors. Here's Emma and Anna playing in the pool.
And here's Leif and Drew - who kept running and doing cannonballs into the pool!
Last week, I took the kids to the Birkdale Fountains - and they loved it!
It took Emma awhile to actually touch the water. She kept running around it, and checking out everyone's snacks. But she got daring and got wet after awhile!
Here she is trying to figure out how to get the water in her bucket.
Pure excitement!
Last weekend Drew had soccer on Saturday morning. Chad volunteered to be one of the parent "tigers" where the kids chase them and try to get the red "tails." Here's Drew chasing him.
And here's Drew working on his dribbling.
This was by far his best practice - he was paying attention and doing really well the whole time - and he was breaking a sweat!
They have drink breaks several times - and he loves to use his Cars 2 waterbottle Aunt Judy sent him!
And they always finish up practice with every kid making a goal!
Then after soccer, we headed to Raleigh to celebrate Olivia's birthday! The kids (and Chad) had a blast climbing and jumping around at the party.
Here's Drew and Gracie (Olivia's BFF) jumping together. =)
This past week, Drew has been going to Vacation Bible School in the evenings. It is at the church that he will be going to preschool at next fall. He LOVED it! Tonight was the final performance, and the preschoolers did a few songs with singing and dancing! Drew (of course) was very serious, but he did really good following along. (he's in the front with the striped shirt.)
The video won't upload right now...I'll post it later! It's very cute! Drew's FIRST performance!
One night while Drew was at VBS and Chad was out of town working, Emma was being so silly, I had to pull out the camera! She used to use sign language to say "more" and "all done." But all of a sudden she started nodding her head! It was really cute, and of course she wouldn't do it as dramatically as she was before I got the camera out!
Her favorite song is "Old McDonald had a farm." If you sing the song with her, she'll say the "EIEIO" at the appropriate time!! haha

She knows A LOT of words and phrases...just can't say them yet! If I tell her to do something ("go get your milk." "Get your shoes and sit down so I can put them on.") - she totally understands and does it! She might be a little smarty pants like her brother, but just hasn't been as vocal as he was. But here she is being silly...and her dress was REALLY messy...so that's why she's half dressed!
