6-30-2012 Day 1 Michigan Cabin

I love having a Mamma's Boy

Food eaten off the ground is the best food.  (And one of the few things my picky eater will eat.)

This is for you Aunt Becky.

our little gymnast - quite a trick with help from Auntie Ann

Fruit is the best

check out little guy in his muscle-man life vest (and matching shoes)

Excited to go on the tube

Playing quietly together or plotting to take over the world?

Dash liked the fast boat.

Sadie, Mommy, and Ann

The sandbox was a hit with the Turner kids.

Might be future facebook profile picture???

Out with Grandma and Aunt Debbie.  She says, "Don't worry Grandma, I know that the tube won't flip over because I am on it."

The Duffys

 Love this pic.

Dash is really into his alphabet cards now and Paw Paw went through them about a dozen times.

This is how we found Dash when we finally went to bed.

6-23-2012 Jumping Frog Contest

Fun times at the Turner house - mouth full of teeth

Dash loves jumping off of these giant shapes.

At the frog contest, Sadie tried everything to get her frog to jump.  

Here she is singing.

Dash loved the playground

Sadie attempting the sack race.  The sack was way too big for her.

She gave up halfway through the race.

She really enjoyed hopping on the balls.

Daddy dropped us off and we waited while he walked miles to join us at the festival.

Sadie is picking out her frog.

She tried blowing on it to get it to jump.

After a few races, this frog was just too dang tired. 

(Or else he just liked Sadie so much that he wanted to stay with her.)

6-12-2012 zoo trip with grandma and June

June (I love my headband THIS way) and Sadie

I can't believe I let my little guy go up in the playground!  

Sadie was such a good big sister and helped him all the way.

June did not like the Alligator noises in the reptile house.

Dash very much liked to press the button that made the alligator noises in the reptile house.

Turtles!

Yeah there is Dash - ABOVE MY HEAD!

6-10-2012 We are so busy in June!

We met Grandma and Paw Paw and JUNE!!! at the playground in Delaware.

I can't believe that my little Dasher has bigger calves than June.

It was also Sadie's first swim lesson (She insisted on wearing the goggles)

Dash thought June was wonderful.

Sadie was tops in her class and even went off the diving board at the end of the 2 weeks!

Love this

The Duffy Clan plus E-Dunk and Mr. Nick all came over to help spread 10 yards of mulch.

Our house looks awesome now.

The girls.

Mulch makes everything pretty

They are either terrified or up to something.

Dash was very patient while Sadie had swim lessons.

May 2012 Videos #2

After practicing, Sadie's class had "free dance" and Dash joined in.

Dash plays catch with Daddy for the first time.

The Performance

Free bounce house at the ice cream festival.   I didn't notice - until reviewing the video - that Sadie trips her brother to make him fall.  

Sadie and Dash dance to the interesting singer at the ice cream festival

2012 May videos #1

Sadie entertained at Brian's house with her spin on "Take Me Home, Country Roads."  She has a book with the words and loves to "sing" the song.  Still working on singing vs. yelling

Sadie's Dance Class

Sadie's last day of school.  

 I had no idea she could follow directions so well.

5-30-2012 Sadie's Class Party and Last Day

I went to Sadie's Party at the end of school and she made me this beautiful bracelet.  She was very enthusiastic about having a pattern

Sadie and her friend Gracie

Sadie's class - 5 more kids than at the beginning.

Our daughter the giant.  Well, they can't say she is not tall enough to be in kindergarten.

Mrs. Valentino
