...is flying by.

Summer is in full swing.

Enjoying ourselves at Wheeler Farm with Jasmine, Astrid, and Thomas.

Ruby and Astrid excited about their twinner nalgene's....and Thomas being his cute self.

Petting the animals...Ruby and Astrid had no fear of the animals.

Ruby brought her own "video camera" to document the outing.

Ruby loves her cousins. She' always asking when she can go play with them.

Ruby took her first session of swim lessons. Overall, she did well. Still not a big fan of putting her head under or blowing bubbles. She was always quick to tell Ms. Lauren up front, "I'm not going to blow bubbles." It was a positive experience and Ruby wanted to go back each day...success in my book. Thanks to Jess for inviting Ruby! We had fun with cute Graham and Owen.

It doesn't get much cuter...

Ruby showing off her new bike riding skills...while insisting on wearing my sunglasses and wearing her backpack.

She told me she was going to the "movie featre"

McCall and I were cheering her on saying, "Looks she's really riding" so when the incline was too much and she ran out of steam Ruby replied, "Ope, I'm not riding."

Made it to her destination...the pretend movie theatre. Enjoying her pretend movie and swig of water. We have been pretending all day long, around these parts.
