May 25: New Bike
M needed a new bike. We let her pick it out and she loves it so much. Each evening after dinner, we take a quick walk around the neighborhood. May 26: Hard Time Sleeping
M had the hardest time sleeping this week. She couldn't settle down in the evenings and was waking up super early. Twice she fell asleep in my bed with the lights on. Tonight, she had the drawers from my jewelry box on the bed and the jewelry spread all around her. May 27: Field Trip
H took the afternoon off so we could take M on a field trip. We went to Dauset Trails and Indian Springs. We had a great time together, exploring something new. M loved discovering new things and asked a million questions about everything we saw. At one point, she went up to a sign and said, "This is the coyote cage." We had fun looking at the picture and spelling the words. May 28: Our first daughter: Mocha
This is our 9 year old daughter, Mocha. She loves to go outside when we go out to play. After sniffing all the new smells in our yard, she'll find a sunny spot to rest until we force her to go inside.

I promised M if she'd sleep through the night in her own bed, I'd take her to the pool. Woohoo!! For the first time all week, M slept her normal 11 hours and woke up in the most precious mood. We had a blast at the pool!

This picture was actually taken May 31, but it works for Sunday, too. We're part of a small group that meets every other Sunday. This sweet girl's parents host the families at their house. M and GW love each other and enjoy spending time together.

M enjoyed her first day of swim lessons. GW is in the group next to her and a little friend, T, is in her group. She did everything her swim instructor asked of her and waited patiently until it was her turn again. I loved being able to spy on her when she was in a learning setting, under someone else's authority. I'm thankful they let parents stay today. I'm as eager as she is to see all that she learns in swim lessons.

Love this 'round -up' of the week. Wish I had more time to pop in more consistently.
