Juneberry

Juneberry Album
Ah, finally summer! And, just to prove it we went strawberry picking about an hour north of Seattle. It was a blast! The girls endured the car ride and learned quickly to pick only the red berries. Once they figured out that they could eat the berries, watch out! I think they each ate their weight's worth. Thank goodness Grandpa and Mimi were in town the next day. Mimi and Audrey made strawberry pies. Otherwise, I don't thing we could have eaten all the berries we picked.

Junuary

So, the end of May and beginning of June continued to be on the cool side. I just had to laugh when the cashier at the grocery store said, "It's always cold in JUNUARY!" My kids were wearing coats to the playground. I (Mama) escaped to Dallas for some time with friends and the heat. It as 100 degrees the day I left. Hopefully, summer will get here soon.

Other milestones for June were:
We finally complete enclosed Piper's crib with a tent. She was having a hard time staying asleep and would get our attention by throwing all of her pacifiers out of bed. Now, nothing gets out and she's waking up less. She has, however, now taken to waking up at 6am. That's just too early for Mama! Daddy graciously packs her up in the jog stroller and takes her for a run. THANK YOU!
The girls are starting to play together more. Audrey's so cute, trying to explain how things work. And, Piper's so eager to do everything that Audrey does. She even threw her sippy cup back at Daddy because she wanted a cup like Audrey!
Audrey got a big girl bike with training wheels. Mama scored it a the consignment store for $35! Keep your fingers crossed, no wipe outs yet.
