Summer Fun

My sister, Becca, e-mailed me the cutest pictures of Bianca, Brandon, and Nate. After a long time in the pool with your cousins there's nothing like a snack. The 2 B's (Bianca & Brandon) sit with Nate on 1 towel and enjoy popsicles.

It's funny at Aunt Bec's house Nate-Dawg eats the popsicle and at our house he uses the popsicle to draw on his legs and on the cement.

Ready for the Summer Olympics

Monday the 16th: Nate and I traveled to Upland to hang out with Aunt Bec and Brandon. The boys, aka the little fishies, were dying to go into the pool. My sister told me to have Nate hold onto my hand and let him guide himself in the water. She and I took turns doing this. Nate was loving it.
Wednesday the 18th: I took Nate-Dawg into the pool at our house. And guess what? He let go of my hands and started swimming on his own. Of course, he has a special swimsuit that has floaties in it! But he did it!!!!
He is so proud of himself. He goes everywhere in the pool. Even in the deep end (sp ?)...scary!
I have video...I'll post tomorrow of him swimming with Dad!
Nate's definitely ready to join the swimming team for the Olympics. Swim, Nate! Swim!

My amazing kid

I just couldn't wait to tell everyone about Super Nate! I'm beaming with pride and excitement for him. Today after his bath he wanted Ringo (our dog), so I told him to whistle and say Ringo's name. Instead of whistling he actually said, "Whistle, Gigi"! Gigi means kitty and doggie. Needless to say Jerry and I can't get enough of him saying, "Whistle". We keep asking him to say it. He sounds so adorable.
I'll try to get it on video tomorrow and post it as soon as I can.

Nathan's 18 months old

On May 19th Nathan went to the doctor ...Wahhh! He still cries when we go, but is very brave when he has to get his shots. He got his MMR shot and we found out that he is off the charts for his height. He weighs a wopping 27 lbs. and is 33 1/2 inches tall. Wow! Doctor Joshi couldn't believe his height at first so he had to be measured again. Again, he measured 33 1/2 in. tall. After his appointment Bianca & Brandon, (cousins), came back to our house. We spent the day swimming...it really cheered Nate up! His next appointment is 4 days after his 2 year old birthday. That seems so far away, but I know it will come fast. Time always goes by too fast!

Nate's ouchy-a- bonkers

May 30 was like any ordinary day at our house. Shopping, haircut, and running around like crazy! Until, oh, about 6pm! Jerry, Nathan, and I were outside enjoying the nice cool night when we heard Nate cry. My poor little Natey-pooh fell on the sidewalk in the backyard. I ran to him and saw that he was bleeding from his mouth, nowhere else, thank goodness. I brought him in the house, washed his mouth off and saw that his front teeth had bit the bottom of his lip. As a result of this Nate got his first FAT LIP.\

Nate was so brave the day after his ouchy happened. It was hard for him to eat or drink, but he kept trying. He also let me put Neosporin on his boo boo. No ice for him, though! Dad got a cold beer out (wait for me to finish) and Nate held the can to his mouth....the beer wasn't opened. Just another introduction to being a boy!!!

Fun with Jerry, Kristen, and Nate!!
