Settling Into Summer

We've had a nice summer so far. The weather here has been great, so we've gotten to play outside most days. Here are a few of our highlights so far.

We got a pet rat and named him Stu. Amora loves him! It's the highlight of both of their days when Stu gets to come out and play. Amora tries to pet him, then chases him around the house, and Stu just runs away. At least she gives him some exercise.


This is one of Amora's favorite places to relax.


Amora is an outside girl. She's so funny. She walks up to this water spout (must be this one) and sings to it. Silly girl.


We have a pass-through from the living room to the kitchen. When I'm cooking, Amora will climb up on the couch and proudly say hello.


This is my view of her from the living room.


When Daddy's at work, we like to cook together. Amora is very helpful pouring the ingredients into the bowl and stirring the contents. She's already learned that those who cook get to sample the food.


She also helps by putting the muffin cups in the pan.


We went to the zoo with some of our new friends and got to meet the penguins. Amora thought they were pretty fun.


Amora got her own set of pots and pans. Here she is teaching Mommy the right way to cook.


She also got a new swimming pool. It's a great way to cool off and show off her cute little swimsuit.


We've had a great summer so far and have enjoyed exploring our new city. Next weekend we're taking a short trip to Utah to visit some siblings. Pictures to come!
