Augustine's Weekly Wee-View

Augustine's Weekly Wee-View
*This will be a review of the past two weeks...we have been traveling and hosting visitors and have gotten behind on blogging!

1) We spent the weekend of July 16th in North Carolina visiting Daddy's friend, Clint Dempsey, and his family. Clint just got back to the US for a few weeks after playing in the World Cup! I went on my first boat ride, watching Mom and Dad wake board, and Elyse (Clint's baby) gave me my first kiss (...on the cheek!).

2) Gaga, Nana, Uncle Joe, Uncle Steve, Aunt Mary, and Aunt Angela came to visit for the weekend. We went out for a few big family meals with them and spend Saturday afternoon at the park by the lake. All of us went to Daddy's game Saturday night, but Mom and I left at half-time, like usual. Aunt Tessa stayed with us last night, as she flew in to meet the rest of the gang at VA Beach. I am blessed with many aunts and uncles!

3) Mom bought me a new toy! I admit I have lots and lots of toys, but they have all been gifts, and I am out growing many of them. My new toy makes lots of fun sounds and music...and even teaches me Spanish! :) When the music comes on I shake my head to dance. When I get older, we can put legs on the toy so I can stand up and play with it.

4) I fed myself a "puff" for the first time on Monday! It is getting easier to get the food into my hand...and even to bring my hand to my mouth...but the tricky part is getting the food out of my hand and into my mouth! I need a lot more practice!

5) On July 20th, I went swimming at an outdoor pool for the first time and loved it! The sun is really not my thing, but the shallow area was shaded, so it felt like a big bathtub! I splashed with my arms and legs, played with my ducks, and lounged in my floatie.
