Swimming time

I haven't been blogging much lately 'cause nothing remotely exciting is going on. Here's some of that non-excitement.

We got a bigger inflatable pool for the balcony this year. I finally blew it up so the kids could play. It's starting to get warmer. It was overcast this day, but still muggy and over 80. And it only gets hotter from here.

Matthew wanted me to take a picture of him sliding on his belly. He never really committed to the belly sliding, but he liked posing for the pictures.

Anna wanted to get in on some of the picture taking too.

A little bird landed on the building next door and the kids were trying to coax him over by yelling, "COME HERE BIRD!!" at full volume. That didn't work, but when we left a few pretzel crumbs on the wall he came over for a visit.

Anna watches the bird too. After she saw the bird liked the pretzels, she kept asking for more pretzels and then chucking them over the balcony. We stopped giving her pretzels after that.

This reminds me of curious george who watches the bunny. . . . Matthew and Anna are keen observers. Mom K
