Fun & Family

It's been a busy weekend. We finally got Amanda's feet impression in plaster, something we've been meaning to do for weeks. Eva's been asking for "Auntie" and "Bandit" all week, so we went over to Nanci's house and let her get her puppy fix. Bandit and Cleo were getting worked up by the neighbor's dog, so Eva shook her little finger at them and sternly told them to "hush!" She wanted to swim once she saw the pool, so Nanci got her swimsuit out and took her into the water. She had a blast playing with a raft and beach ball, and started to get brave enough to try and push off by herself, only to grab onto Auntie the minute the water got near her face. Amanda was sitting in my lap near the pool when Aunt Nanci accidentally drenched us while trying to splash Bandit, who was barking again. Later, poor Eva got her first fat lip when she tripped over my foot and put her teeth right through her upper lip. It's healed up pretty well already, thankfully. The next day the family got together to celebrate Grandma Geri's 75th birthday. It was the first time baby Amanda got to meet Uncle Larry.
