Summer Starts (June Part 1)

With the school year behind us, both birthdays out of the way, and the pool calling our names, we kick off summer!
 
The goggles were a big hit...even when nowhere near the water:

Patrick went on a short business trip and the kids were so excited to have him home they decorated our door.  I moved their adorable art to the interior of the door so they could stay up longer: 
We potty trained Caroline.  After potty training Maggie I was in no rush to repeat that disaster again!  I put it off.  And put it off.  And....put it off.  Finally Patrick "suggested" I give it a try.  Two days and it was done.  Hooray for Caroline! She really saved my sanity.

A quick shopping trip with just Maggie.  We stopped to play in the spray ground and eat some Red Mango frozen yogurt: 
We spent a CRAZY amount of time at our local pool.  Morning swim lessons were just the beginning.  We would do hours a day.  I figured they needed the exposure to the water and, maybe by some miracle, they would become fish. 
Trips to the library: 
Patrick decided he wanted to cook his own Father's Day meal.  Little did he know it was going to be like a million degrees outside!!  He told me afterward that although it was tasty he'll not be doing that again.:
