You can't have a summer without swimming!! Every Monday my sisters, mom, and I go to the pool. The girls have also started swimming lessons, Kylie asked "mom how much longer do we have to take swimming lessons?" I said, Kylie, if I threw you over the boat into the lake would you be able to stay a float? "No!" Ok then when you can swim in the lake with out a life jacket on then you can be done with swimming lessons. "Mom, that will be FOREVER!!" We love our Kylie:) 
Finding new and fun things to do with this little girl. Bella is sooo happy and playful. She smiles, laughs, grabs objects, (as you can see), loves standing on her legs, and sitting up and looking around.
We've been taking lots of trips to the canyon. We usually grab a pizza or some hot dogs and enjoy dinner where it is nice and cool. Then we play in the river, catch bugs, and play games together. It's a lot of fun and time we get to spend with Nate.

We hope you are finding lots of things to keep busy this summer too! Although I have to be honest I am anticipating school being back in session, then I will have 2 girls gone all day, and a preschooler half a day Wahooo!! It's hard keeping these munchkins busy all day without spending a ton of money. Life is a lot cheaper when school "entertains" them :)

The Living Planet Aquarium
Since Nate is so busy with work and school during the week, we try to do something really fun on the weekend. This week we took the girls to the aquarium. It was a lot of fun, they had sting rays that you could touch, penguins that were so cute and playful, and exhibits that you could touch like starfish, hermit crabs, lobsters, etc. Then of course every kind of fish you could imagine. The sharks were cool too. We had a lot of fun and so did the girls.
If you have never been I highly recommend it, it's in Sandy.
(The flash on my camera kept showing up in all of my pictures, so kinda limited;)
