Summertime and the livin' is easy

Our summer, like most, went by very quickly. Most of our days were spent getting settled into our new home and routine. We've made some new friends, visited some new places and started new projects.

Roman is growing and changing everyday. He's still a great sleeper/napper. This is good news for me because it give me time to clean up after he's torn through our house. This is a typical view of our home after Roman has "explored":

He just loves pulling anything and everything out of cabinets and cupboards. Sheesh....

But, he also loves playing outside:

(Side note: our child does wear clothing on occasion)

This is the first summer I had a chance to spend multiple days at the pool. It's been great fun because Roman loves the water! He has no fear- which has been a blessing and a curse. He's more than willing to play in the water, but eventually he gets frustrated and wants to swim without my help. Um, no. 

We've also manage to sneak a few hours in at the beach. This past trip was overcast, but we had a good time. We even managed to get a few snap shots. 

Our weekends are usually spent BBQing with new friends and attending our new church. The church is Horizon Baptist and we joined a few weeks ago. It's a young church with a smaller congregation, but we are enjoying getting to know everyone. There are many younger families as well so there are plenty of children for Roman to play with and learn from. I'm glad we have a great church for him to grow in for the next 4 years.

And that, folks, is our summer in a nutshell. I hope you all had a lovely summer as well!
