Aarastas and Sarsosari

We've had a busy last two weeks--mostly cause of swimming lessons. Arwen sure did like them and it was so fun to watch her do things like "chicken, airplane, soldier" on her back! Noah is glad they are done because they interfered with his nap time.
Last weekend the kids and I went to the beach with Aaron and the youth in the ward. The kids all learned to surf and played games. We brought our little tent and the kids played in there and also played in the sand (well one of them ate more sand than he played with). I found a little baby sand dollar that was whole! I was pretty excited.
This last weekend we went camping down on the coast. Aaron "won" a free camping trip by putting his name in something at the county fair. It was a time share for campers. It was fun enough. They had a lodge, a swimming pool, a play ground and lots of other things. We had a fun time and look forward to camping again this weekend at the ward camp out.
Happy Anniversary Bill and Marsha!!
Happy Birthday Meghan!!

Arwenisms:
Arwen stood on top of her bean bag and said, "Look. I'm a dangerous girl."
We were at Costco with some friends and we were eating hot dogs. Arwen always takes her hot dog out of the bun to eat it. When her friend Jake unwrapped his hot dog, she grabbed and took the hot dog out of the bun for him. He cried and I put it back and told Arwen that Jake ate his hot dog like a human, so she needed to stop. A few minutes later I looked over and Arwen said, "Look mom. I'm a human." She had put her hot dog back in the bun.

Noahisms:
I'm not quite sure that Noah will ever crawl. He gets around just fine only because he army crawls everywhere. It's very slow, but I guess it works.
Noah is almost weened. Yea!!!! He sure is the messiest eater in the universe. He has to spit every bite of every thing I give him out into his hand to look at it first (even milk from his sippy!!).
