i loved every second of this summer with my kiddos. we had so much fun rotating between the pools, parks, splash pad and the lakes. olive was finally big enough/brave enough to play on her own and enjoyed trying to keep up with steel and pais.

pais was such a good swimmer and hardly/never had to use floaties. steel was getting there by the end of summer too. we would spend the evening riding bikes and playing until dark in our yard. normally throwing together something for dinner right before bed. 

i was also pregnant this summer and playing outside made my first part of pregnancy fly by.
