Summer fun!

Things have been very busy around here! I'm finally starting to get a bit of my energy back and am able to keep up with the housework for a change. Jack has become a little toddler tornado in the past couple of weeks and just goes and goes and goes. He practically runs everywhere! Just a couple of days ago Jason and I watched him run, full-speed and head-first, into one of the end tables in the living room. He cried for just a second or two and then was off running again!

We've been spending lots of time going for walks (in the morning to avoid the heat) swinging on the swingset, running in the yard, and playing with Jack's newest toy - a sand and water table, courtsey of Yaya (thanks Mom!). Jack just loves to splash in the water and dump it all down the front of his shirt. He also likes to destroy anything that happens to look like a sandcastle. Saturday he even had his first taste of sand... and he went back for more! Blech!

Here are some photos from the past week or so. Enjoy!

Watermelon is goooood. Mmmm...
