Summer Shots

We have a new summer routine, I ride as fast and safely as I can to pick up Tatum from day care on the bike. As expected, I always have cool "aqua" (yes, she is saying aqua now) and snacks. The first day I went to pick her up on the bike I quickly realized that we needed to add a front basket to the bike to carry my work things and her day care things. So off we road to our local bike shop to add the trusty well-used front basket. It took a while for the installation to happen, so Tatum roamed (ran) the open rows of the bike store. At first the service guys were a little apprehensive about her frolicking near bikes, but she soon won them over with her crack up laughs and giggles. Because really, now that she walks there's no way to keep her in place let alone in my arms. One bike guy engaged her by playing peek-a-boo throughout the store. It won't be long before she's on her own two wheels (with training wheels of course).


Oh yes, Tatum's new found love. She opens her drawers, rummages through her clothes, selects a garment, and puts it on her head. She may play peek-a-boo with the shirt/pants/cover-up or she just may sling it over her shoulder and continue playing around the house. She finds it hilarious, and frankly, so do we.



MMMMM - Watermelon. Tatam may only have four teeth in her little head, but two front top teeth and two front bottom teeth are all you need to enjoy the pleasures of cold watermelon on a hot summer day. MMMMM!
