Hot Summer Days



Lots of walking going on here @ the Forster residence. Sydney amuses her self all day long by walking around the house. She particularly likes carrying a sundry of items with her...including, but not limited to potatoes, balls, shoes, plastic rings, baby jar lids, etc. She has her balance down fairly good, and it seems to really put a kink in her style when she falls. Good thing diaper butts are nice & padded! Other than practicing walking, we have inflated our small pool, and now that the weather has finally warmed up, Sydney & I hop into that every afternoon. Our neighborhood park has a pool which we also have visited. We are participating in a neighborhood 4th of July parade on Friday--stay tuned for pictures of our decorated stroller!


We celebrated Jude's 59th birthday on Sunday, with dinner & Slip n' Slide @ the Murray's. Sydney, Ryan & I were the only takers for the Slip n' Slide, and I have the bruised knees to demonstrate why adults really shouldn't be hurling themselves down on the ground onto a plastic path that lands you in ice cold water. However, it was fun...until the bruises started to hurt & turn ugly.


Steve has officially returned to his former/current job in Fire Prevention--we are excited about this cause it means a shorter commute & a bit more flexible hours. Linda is coming up from CA on the 13th to visit, and then the 4 of us will drive to Coeur d'Alene to visit with more of the Forster family. We love going to CDA, and this will be Sydney's 2nd trip! She was 1 mo. old when we traveled there last summer, and I am hoping this trip will be a bit more relaxing for us all!
