All good things must come to an end and this summer has been full of good things. We spent our final holiday weekend at Castle Erie. JJ had a great time playing with their cousin Emily and as always they loved all the time they got to spend with Grandpa Dave and Grandma Jane.
Both James and Josie have grown up so much this summer. It amazing how quickly they learn new things. This weekend Josie learned how to use her feet to pick up her toys while she is in the jolly jumper. It amazes me now smart and resourceful she is - she must get that from her mother. Lol.
James has also become quite the little crawler. He still hasn't quite put all the movements together yet but he manages to get himself across the room using a combination of army crawling and rolling. I think we need to start baby proofing our house!
It has been so amazing having the summer off with Brian. He is such a great dad and our kids have really grown up in these two months because of all the quality time we've gotten to spend with them. Every morning Brian got up with the babies and played with them downstairs while I pumped. He would also give them breakfast if I wanted (or sometimes needed) so extra time to sleep in. He was genuinely interested in making there time fun and teaching them new things. He spent all day with them (with the exception of a few golf games) and even got up throughout the night to feed James. It's going to be a while before JJ can appreciate what a great Dad they have - but one day they will look back at their childhood and realize how lucky they are.
Here are a few more pictures from Lake Erie. Thanks for an amazing summer JJ. I am so proud of all you have accomplished already and I thrilled that I get to spend every day being your mom. You are growing up so fast. I love you more than you'll ever know.
