A busy month ...

It's been a while since we last posted on our blog. I thought I would give you a quick update on what's been happening this past month ... (in no particular order).

Gavin and Annika had their first ride with Dad on the sea-doo. Gavin LOVED it, Annika was a little apprehensive.

Being close to 8 months pregnant, I took Annika on the tube. Don't worry, Mom, Andy Sr. drove the boat very slowly. No attempts to buck me off this time.

Annika turned 4 years old! We had a fun day ... and then the stomach flu the next ...

Annika had her friends over for a fun Birthday party -- pool, slip n' slide, sandbox, swing set, lunch and butterfly cupcakes ... and then a 101 fever late that night.

Andy's parents moved from Texas back to Seattle. They are temporarily living with us. The kids love having them here ... and we do too!

Got to visit an old friend in Utah. So fun to catch up!

Had a Bjorn Family reunion at Bear Lake. The week went by too quickly. It was great to be together again and play at the lake and pool.
Finished the patio in the back. More plants are in (thanks to Andy and his Dad) and chairs set up to watch the kids play on the swing set. Grandpa and Dad also taught Annika to swing on her own!!

And last, but not least, Andy turned another year older ... 35 and looking great!!

I think that covers the month ... besides the 100 + degree weather we have been having, blackberry chopping, doctor's appointments, park and lake fun, and play dates. Baby is growing stronger and stronger and now it's time to get ready for her arrival September 21st. We are all very excited!
