The Good Life

Ahh, we are back at home in KC. I love my home. I love my friends and I have missed them. Lots of updates..First of all, Joel is sleeping in his new big boy bed (pictures will follow) and second, we bought a new camera to replace our broken one. Thirdly, I go back to work next week. While I love teaching and I am so excited to teach with my good friend Liz this year, I am sad to not be spending every minute with Joel. He has been so much fun this summer. The time just went so fast. Here are my favorite things about this summer with Joel:
1. "Mommy, I poopy"
2. Eating "snak" with Joel at the table with both of us in "big char"
3. Watching Joel climb up the big slide at the park
4. Cuddling on the couch watching Blues Clues in the early morning, learning our shapes and colors
5. Coloring with markers and watching Joel color on his "niples" (he just discovered them one day)
6. Swimming...so cute..Joel actually lays down in the shallow water and pushes himself around with his hands and screams "I swimming"
7. Taking walks and having Joel point out birdies (by the way, he no longer calls them "boobies')
8. Impressing people at restauraunts with his knowledge of his alphabet
9. singing and swinging
10. Hearing Joel say "Jesus loves me" for the first time

Ah, Life is Good.
