Ava has become very interested in band aids lately. She wants to put them on every scratch and scar. The other day when I was complaining that my shoulder ached, she ran away and quickly returned with a band aid. I explained to her that the pain was on the inside, but she just didn't get it. She tore the wrapper off and carefully placed it on my shoulder. Of course it made me smile and reminded me of how innocent children are. Wouldn't it be great it every hurt could be soothed with a band aid! Unfortunately, today, she really did need band aids. We met up with her little friend, Morgan, and her mommy at the splash park. They had a great time but after a dramatic wipe out on the sidewalk we decided to call it a day.
This has been a busy week for Jen. She's got two birthdays to celebrate in her family. Emma's was yesterday and Natalie's tomorrow. We had a great lunch at their house yesterday to bring in Emma's 10th year! They are growing up to be wonderful young ladies!
Alex, meanwhile, is as cute as ever! His latest milestone is pointing to his mouth when asked. We're working on nose, eyes and so on. He is so laid back and so sweet I could just kiss on him all day! I'm soaking in all his sweetness because I know this baby stage doesn't last long.
I hope every one's summer is off to a great start. Take care!

I love your blog and especially this entry! It is such a darling story! It is one that I will cherish and share with all my friends. I'm always bragging on my "godchildren". I have all their pictures in my office. I know that it is quite an effort to upload the pictures and take the time out of your busy day to journal, but it is so special. It enables me to get a glimpse of you and your little angels when I don't get over! Thanks so much! Love you all! Darleen
