August Fun

We have done a lot this summer. It amazes me everyday how quickly children change. Elijah is like a little sponge. Elijah learned how to blow his own bubbles. I can't believe my 2 year old can blow bubbles, however we go through them rather quickly when he is in control of them. This bubble session ended up with the water hose and Elijah was soaking wet after that.


Elijah loves riding bikes. Our landlord gave us a little girls bike that is way to big for Elijah but he loves to be pushed around the yard on it, so I thought lets try a smaller bike with training wheels. The only problem is, it is hard to teach a child how to peddle this way. So we went and got Elijah a tricycle. A tricycle is much better because the peddles move when the wheels move so the child can witness what to do. Elijah loves his tricycle!

Elijah loves to go to the pool, however he is not fond of the big pool, he likes the baby pool best. Well, we don't like to always be in the baby pool and after having swim lessons this past spring we have been trying everything to get Elijah to go in the big pool, but no luck. This next picture is Elijah with his new water wings on. He is actually trying to get hem off in this picture. Maybe next summer.
This last picture is one we took at Nolin Lake. Troy decided since gas is so cheap we would go on a Sunday drive. Anyway, this last picture of Elijah is of him sitting on a rock at a camp ground by the Lake. I think it is so cute. You have to be quick when taking pictures of a toddler!
