Baby Anders is now 2 months old! Time is flying by. He can roll over from tummy to back and is "talking" all the time. According to Nils he can say "Hi", "Oh" and "Bye". We been managing to get both kids into bed by 8pm and Anders is sleeping until about 4am, eats and goes back down for another 3-4 hours. Can't ask for more than that at 8 weeks.
We've had a very busy June/July. We took our first camping trip of the summer to LaConner. It poured rain the entire weekend. Nils had a great time flying his kite. Here's some video of him running around the field "flying" his kite.
Nils has also been taking swim lessons for the past couple of months. He loves it and this past session it all made sense to him - if you kick your legs and use your arms at the same time, you actually move! Here's a little video of him doing the backstroke all by himself! This video was taken at the beginning of the session and by the end, he could backstroke about 20 yards unassisted.
We had our annual 4th of July at the Pei's party. This year we had sun and 70 degrees! The fireworks show was as awesome as ever. Thanks to everyone that made it to the party! Same day and time next year. Nils managed to stay outside this year for the fireworks and loved doing sparklers. I think he did about 30 of them.
We took the kids to the "Touch A Truck" event in Seattle sponsored by the Junior League. Nils got to fulfill his dream of sitting in a firetruck. He even got to wear a fire helmet. You have no idea what this meant to him...you can tell by the look on his face!
See you next month!
Brad, Erin, Nils & Anders
