Catching up!

Needless to say, it's been awhile. I was doing so well there for awhile, then Jesse had to start studying more, and I rarely got the computer. Which, is really just fine with me! We have been busy these past few weeks. We made a trip to the farm, play outside all of the time, and are looking forward to Cristian & Carlee visiting. Because Jesse will be in SF all week at school and the construction of our apartment will be wrapping up, the 4 of us are heading to the farm! Here's Maverick opening a package from his Oma Carola. Each time he gets a present, he is figuring out more of what he is supposed to do. Today he had the packing tape stuck to his fingers which was pretty funny. He got a new outfit and a beach ball! Fun!
Maverick and I lounging in green. My favorite color.
Maverick's new playground is the bunk bed. He loves to climb up there and discover all of the mysteries of his future bed! We had used it for storage, so we had to do some quick cleaning. He'll be scaling the sides like a monkey in no time.
Fun days outside! It's hotter than blazes and so humid we can't hardly breath some days. We might as well play in the sprinkler. That's what summer is for! At first Maverick was a little timid, but soon enough he realized it's more fun being wet. Maverick enjoys putting rocks in the stream to make the water spray all over.
Notice the front of his shirt is sopping wet, and his back is dry.

Sprinkler drops keep falling on my head! He was just glistening with droplets of water.
More water.

Riding in the wagon at the farm. Cristian & Carlee answered his every whim. When we got to the farm, Carlee asked if Maverick could have a popsicle and I said yes. He came out with a red one. Five minutes later he came out of the garage with a blue one. Shortly after, he came out with an orange one! I asked Carlee, "What are you doing?" She said, "He likes them!!" Of course he did, and he had her wrapped around his finger. It was hilarious!
Pulling the ancient little red wagon.
The kids filled up a cooler and the wagon with water. Maverick worked for an hour moving the water back and forth. I don't think I had ever seen him concentrate so hard. Luckily it was hot because the water was CHILLY!
