Drew has been wanting a batman costume every since Josiah got one for his birthday. He had a great birthday with lots of toys like 3 transformers, teenage mutant ninja turtle, a few weapons, Star Wars figurines, and a light saber. This is all I can remember right now.

Lilly Kate asked me about a million times that day when she could have some cake. So she finally got some cake! I think she only ate the icing. She must be alot like her mommy.

Here's the birthday crew. Drew had a transformers cake! They did the slip 'n' slide and just ran around the back yard. It was a lot of fun! We celebrated a little early, so he's not quite 5 yet.

Drew & Lilly Kate had swimming lessons the first 2 weeks of June, and these are pictures from their last day where the parents get to come and watch what they have learned. They both did so good for Mrs. Paula. Drew's picture is a little deceiving because his form looks so good but he actually just jumps in and pretty much belly flops. It was pretty funny. He has really been wanting to swim without floaties when we go swimming, but he still struggles a little bit. But they have both improved so much because Lilly didn't even want to get in the pool at the first of summer. Now she swims around in her little ring and will jump in and go under as long as you hold her hands the whole time of course. We have been to Bro. Steve and Mrs. Darlene's pool a bunch this year, so we are getting a great deal of practice.
