High: It was actually a beautiful day :) AND The weather held out for a Caribbean Night in our neighborhood :) And Claire hung out with her friends today :)
Low: It was our last swim class :) AND We couldn't make it to see our friends new pool :(
Today turned out to be a GREAT summer day!! We ended up being really busy and enjoying the summer weather.
Our day started with our last swim lesson:( Claire did amazing today (of course I didn't get any good pictures because I kept missing "the moment"). Today she had no problem GOING UNDER THE WATER!!! Miss Lauren taught her to blow bubbles out when her face touches the water, so she didn't choke at all and LOVED going under!!!
After swim class, our trip to Tim Hortons, breakfast, and our morning walk we had to clean out the pool because our friends Auntie Shannon, Ella, and Charlie were coming over to play. Here is Claire cleaning out the pool for her friends.
Daddy took this one (he is a much better photographer than I am). Just look at those curls, I am sooooo jealous!!!!!
Charlie loves Claire's drumset, so we brought it outside so he could jam (our neighbors just LOVE us!!!).
Ella and Claire liked to swim and play in the water.
After Claire's late nap Aunt Jessica and Giada came over and we headed up to Caribbean Night in our neighborhood. Auntie Shannon, Uncle Alex, Ella, and Charlie met us there too.
Auntie Shannon was having a BLAST!

Claire was LOVING Sponge Bob. I don't think that she actually knows who Sponge Bob is but she was loving this guy! She kept saying "Uppie Songe Bob, you carry me?" Claire also loved kissing him :)
There was even a game that Claire could play. Does everyone remember this one? Just pick a duck, aaannnnyyyy duck, flip it over, check your number, and .......WHOA I WIN!!! It's funny because I can actually remember realizing (as a child) "waaaiiittt a minute..........EVERYONE WINS...this game is stupid!" But, Claire was pleased as could be that she won bubbles (that didn't have a wand).
Claire loved all the yummy treats! PS She ate that entire ice cream sandwich and much more. This kid can eat, I can't believe that she only weighs in at a tiny 23 pounds!
When Claire wasn't looking Giada would try to steal her fruit salad!!
Claire and Daddy with their matching food stains!
Then the band started and it was time to ROCK!!!
Can you see my little Chicken, right up front with the big kids! At one point a group of 13 year olds walked by and Claire just followed right along with them! At another point, she was dancing and then just started running towards a stranger with her arms open (I almost had a heart attack). Turns out the stranger was just our Dr. that Claire apparently LOVES!!! It was really cute, she was super excited to see him. He gave her a big hug and very impressed that she remembered him. I know he can't say anything but I am pretty sure that Claire is his favorite patient :)
Overall, it was a great summer day. The weather was nice, we spent time with friends (even though we didn't make it to my friend's new pool - don't worry Carrie, soon enough you will be begging us to leave!!!), and ate a lot of yummy treats. It doesn't get much better than this!!
