No pictures this week.

Well I haven't posted much this week. We've been having a great time enjoying the nice weather. The kids have been staying up way past bedtime since we have been going for late walks and then hanging out watching the fire flies dance around. Tyler has now become a pro at the slide. Before he would climb up the ladder and then want us to carry him down. Now he'll climb up the ladder and go down the slide by himself! Alana has been doing awesome on the swing. It took her a bit to get the hang of the 'pumping' thing but now she flies on it.
They still love drawing with the side walk chalk and blowing bubbles, though Tyler prefers to eat the bubble wand rather then blow the bubbles!
We have gone swimming a couple times in our neighbor's pool which Alana loves and unfortunately I think Tyler has taking after me with the 'water thing' He kept saying "No No No No" as he was in the water (life vest and all) with a death grip on my neck and his legs wrapped so tightly around my waist I could barely move. He was all smiles sitting on the step but don't get him out in the middle of the water. Daddy will have to work on that with him.
Alana has been coming up with stories like crazy (reminds me of what I was like growing up) the latest had to do with Tinkerbell meeting Pooh bear and him helping her find a house. First it was a book but she couldn't live there, then it was a jar but that wasn't right either. Then they found a perfect place in Piglet's house....a crib! We never know what she is going to come up with next. She even does different voices for the different characters! She will some day win an Oscar or and Emmy!
Tyler does his share of acting as well. He would 'sneak' in the room and jump up yelling "SURPRISE!" and when we do it back to him he says "oh!" and puts his hands up by his mouth acting shocked. These kids are crazy! They do keep us laughing though.

Well I shall end this now, I know reading isn't as much fun as looking at pictures. I hopefully will be taking some more soon to post. I hope everyone is well!
