Summer Fun

John and AJ in the pool. AJ's first "real" time where he didn't scream. The water was just the right temperature. - June 20th


Our unexpected guest that showed up for a mid-afternoon swim. This snapping turtle took John almost 30 minutes to get out of the pool. When I saw him, I don't think I could have gotten AJ out of the pool any faster. I was pretty scared, I know, pathetic.


AJ's first trip to the Manheim Pool-- June16th. Needless to say, we paid 9$ for him to lay on the blanket in the shade and laugh the entire morning. At least he kept me entertained while I got some much needed sun. (June 16th)




AJ's first roll-over from his stomach to back. Obviously not a happy camper... thrilled that it happened on John's birthday; June 25th. He has been rolling over quite a bit from his back to belly which I hear is a lot harder to do. Way to go AJ! :)

Graduation

Miss Maura graduated from her highschool in Maryland on June 2nd. The graduation ceremony was huge and the auditorum was packed! AJ did a great job and only really got fussy around the end although we did watch Maura walk and get her diploma. She looked beautiful! She chose to then go to lunch to Volt. It is a restaurant in Maryland that is owned by someone on Top Chef. The food was amazing and "Textures of Chocolate" dessert was out of this world. (textures of chocolate dark chocolate: ganache, chocolate caramel, raw organic cocoa... YUM!) Congratulations Maura! Off on a new adventure! We love you!
