Summer

It FINALLY feels like summer here. We're headed for our third straight day of oppressive 90+ temps, and while I love summer and try not to complain, I wish Norah liked the pool a little better. Poor girlie gets so red and sweaty when we play outside because she refuses to go in the pool and cool off. She's also figured out that if the big girls can climb up the slide the wrong way, so can she. She's already figured out how to get to the top of the playset slide, so the big metal slide won't be far behind.

Norah has so many words it's scary. She just keeps popping out new ones, I'm literally afraid of what she'll repeat next. I never worried about that with Hannah until she was MUCH older. Just shows how two kids from the same family can be so unbelieveably different.

Yesterday morning the girls and I headed to the hospital to visit Mimi, their first since she was admitted last Monday. Mimi was in good spirits and looking well, and Hannah enjoyed the visit and didn't seem so overly confused about what everything was and if Mimi was ok. They colored and played with some toys and Ella and Lily, and before we left I got a picture of all the girls and Kate. So if I ever boot up the other computer and download my camera I'll post it (with Kat's permission, I know how some people are about hospital pictures).

Oh that's right! I forgot you had to do EI with Hannah because she was a tad late talking. And look at her now! If she's a chatter box I think you might have to watch out for Norah. At least they'll have each other to talk to. And I'm so glad the girls got to visit their sweet friend while she's in the hospital.
