It has been too long, dear cyberspace. So much has happened since my last update that I don't even know where to start. Nothing huge, but lots of fun little stuff that summer is made of. If I were to give an excuse for the lack of updates, which I know I shouldn't, the key culprit would rest with my lack of a digital camera. Our family camera badly needs a trip to the ER and part of me feels like my left arm is missing with its absence; so I have in essence, "shut down" when it comes to online stuff. We combed the drawers and pulled out our old, old, old camera which has helped me get through this difficult time. . . . but I get more blurred images then Kodak moments. OK, enough complaining.
Anyways. . . just a few highlights. . . . .
1. OUR BASEMENT IS DONE!!!!!!!!!! After 6 weeks we have an updated, beautiful basement that we actually enjoy spending time in! Amazing what a few little improvements can do. We still have a couple of "to-do's" down there, but all-in-all we are enjoying what feels like a whole new house. Thanks family for all of your help with the painting!!

2. Bergen's numerous summer activities (soccer, Rainbow Kids) are now coming to a close. It is a welcome break for me to enjoy some home time with the kiddos before preschool starts up again in 4 short weeks. Bergen has tennis for a couple of weeks in August for a quick "boot camp" but that is it. . . we are going to kick back and play with friends for the next month.
3. Annika is getting more and more mobile every day. She has become a pro at pulling herself up and cruising around furniture - which is very exciting for us. Walking is one of those things that we parents so look forward to, but the second it does we know we could have waited another week or two for it to happen! I know she will be a running machine in no time and I am enjoying every second of her figuring out the process ever so slowly and building strength to take that first step. . . someday. I am in no rush.
