It has been a fun summer! We were all a little bummed when we got back from Minnesota-- it was just soooo fun being with everyone. Thankfully, we had July 4th to look forward to! McLean loved the fireworks and playing with all the other children. Claire did well too! She slept in my arms through the fireworks.

Little Miss Claire sporting one of her July 4th outfitsMcLean had his first visit to the dentist. He has been with me before, but this was his first trip to have his teeth "checked and counted." He was a little apprehensive and wouldn't get in the chair without sitting in my lap. So, most of the exam took place in my lap :) I did get a picture of him sitting by himself for a brief moment!
What would a trip be to the dentist without visiting the bakery afterwards? My dad always took us to the bakery after our visits to the dentist as children. My parents went with us to the dentist and we went to the bakery afterwards. McLean got a purple smiley face sugar cookie. We came home, napped, and then headed downtown to the new "Splasheville"--which are fountains in front of the court house designed for water play. There were a lot of children there and it was 91 degrees at 5:00. McLean was apprehensive at first, but warmed up as the night went on. He never ran through the water, but did splash by putting his hands in. Maybe he will be more comfortable next time!
Mimi held Claire the whole time--I actually ended up getting in with McLean!
