Summer fun!

I had last blogged about Bugga not really being about the sprinklers.  Well, true to Bugga fashion he is willing to give it more and more tries and he LOVES it now.  Its really nice that we can sprinkle the garden and he can have fun while doing so.  :)  We also got him an inflatable pool that has a whale head that blows water out the spout and some sidewalk chalk.  This summer looks like we are all geared up for fun in the sun!

Another fun thing that we got him was this alphabet letter mat.  It has all the letters of the alphabet in a foam mat that you can take apart and put back together like a puzzle.  This is especially good because he's been watching this show called Word World, and they are spelling words and learning what sounds each letter makes.  They 'build' words with the letters and then they come alive as the word they built!  It's very cute and educational (and HE LOVES it) so everybody wins.  We have been working on these letters with him and what sound they make.  He is doing great.  He can recognize almost all the letters of the alphabet and can say about 10 of them.  Even though he's not really talking yet, I know that this is helping him out a ton.  He loves pointing out letters that he knows in signs and on whatever he can find. His favorite letter is 'O'.  :)  Smart dude!

Little Lu Bird is great.  She is such a sweet girl.  She has a bit of a snot nose right now, but is still sleeping and eating like a champ.  We are so blessed to have two great children.  I know that I had been saying towards the end of my pregnancy that I was done having kids, but watching these two grow makes me want to have a boat LOAD of kids... haha.  We will see what God has in store for us.  I know that we still want to adopt and I know that I don't want to have more kids then I can give attention too, so we will see.  :)  I love my kids.
