update

I haven't really felt like updating our blog lately, so I'm just going to post a few things so that I don't get too far behind.

Harper feeding ducks at the park.  She is wearing her swimming suit under her clothes because there used to be a splash area at this park, but it was broken :(

On Wednesday mornings I have been trying to take the kids to the farmer's market in Santa Monica.  It is so much fun and there is a wonderful stand that sells baked goods including these amazing chocolate walnut cookies.  It was probably the best cookie I have ever had.  And it was big (and rich) enough that we all split one.
We had to take Tom to get a root canal in Westwood last week.  While we waited for him, we went up to UCLA and walked around.  Harper got tired so here she is taking a little break.  Her red shoes are the same shoes that she wore for Halloween when she was Dorothy and they STILL FIT.  She definitely did not inherit my big feet.
Jonah has been loving Tom lately.  They are so sweet together.
Almost every afternoon we walk over to the mall by our house and they kids play for a few minutes.  They have this play structure that is kind of like a treehouse and Harper loves it.  You can kind of see his bottom teeth in this photo.  He seems happy to finally have some teeth and puts them to good use when he is eating.
On Thursday my friend Rachel invited us to come over to her place and play in a little pool.  The kids loved it.  Rachel has a little boy Dean who is the same age as Jonah and they are so funny together.  Jonah is cruising on the furniture a little and will occasionally stand on his own, but appears to have no interest in walking.  Harper didn't start walking until she was 15 months and Jonah will be 14 months on Monday, so I think he will probably start walking around the same time.

Looks like you're having a relaxing summer. Except for the root canal, of course! I'm sorry to hear about that!

Kids are growing up fast!
