This summer has flown by fast. We are already back in school and looking forward to fall. We spent most of the summer inside hiding from the heat. It was just too hot to take a newborn out. We did manage, however, to make a trip to Deanna Rose Farm. The girls love the farm and had a great time hanging out with cousins. As always, they enjoyed feeding the baby goats, riding the little tractors, and seeing the cows and chickens. This trip I let them ride the horses for the first time -- it was a big hit. Technically you had to be at least three years old to ride, so I stretched the truth so Piper could ride. Which was all fine and dandy until she almost fell off. Again, mother of the year.
As always, a great group shot.
We were also able to get Payton some swimming lessons. Last year we tried hard to get Payton to put her head underwater. We even tried to bribe her, but nothing worked. So we decided she needed some swimming lessons just to help her be comfortable in the water. She now loves putting her head underwater to see how long she can hold her breath, picking up toys from the bottom of the pool, and jumping off the side. So thankful for an amazing and patient teacher. It turns out Piper is our little fish -- she has no fear. She wasn't taking lessons, but she was in the water the whole time swimming around and jumping off the sides.
