Summer Fun

We are sooo happy to have our yard complete and Susanna is really enjoying the new grass. She has a lot of fun helping daddy with the yard work. She moves handfuls of pine straw and/or leaves from one spot to the next. And now that we have the new mulch, plants, and flowers she will have have fun discovering the bumblebees and other bugs!


It is funny to watch her and try and figure out her reasoning but it keeps her occupied and that's all that matters!!!


We have been spending most weekends at the pool and Susanna is loving it!

She is getting more comfortable with the kiddy area and loves splashing around. We just love watching her explore and are ever amazed at her comfort in the water! Miguel is confident she will be a swimmer just like him!

Miguel has been working on his summer projects around the house. First he installed under cabinet lighting, then rope lighting in the screen porch, and finally a hammock in the back yard. Recently he installed a gate in the yard fence and built another gate for the top of the deck stairs. It is soo nice to be able to close the deck gate and Susanna can enjoy being outside with us and not fall down the stairs!! He has been working sooo hard and everything looks great!!




In other news, I am now 13 weeks pregnant. The past 2 weeks have been the hardest by far! I don't know if it was recovering from our trip to San Diego or what but I have been more exhausted and drained than ever. Luckily Susanna is still napping twice a day and it is the only thing that saves me from breaking down and crying. As long as I get to sleep while she naps I am ok. I feel sooo bad for Susanna though... we usually have multiple park adventures and playgroups throughout the week but I have not had the energy to attend any lately. I can tell she is getting bored being stuck at home all the time. I have signed up to attend a playgroup this week and I sure hope my energy returns so we are able to make it. If it doesn't, you know where to find us.... at home, snug in our beds taking naps :)
