Most nights Jimmy tends to tackle Anna's bath time while I clean up from her dinner. It's a nice system because I get some peaceful tidying time and, according to Anna's screams and giggles, Jimmy is way more fun giving baths than I am. I often hear him spelling out words with Anna's foam letters - a difficult task because there is only one of each letter. He was pretty proud of this concoction (one of the O's is actually a zero) - sounds like a good band name, doesn't it?!?!
This Saturday we packed a picnic and headed to Arrington Vineyards. We've never been there and have heard from friends that it's a great place to go. Next time we go, we'll definitely partake of the free wine tasting and live music; this weekend we opted for the kid-friendly version of lunch and a walk through the vineyards - fun!
We also had a great Sunday celebrating Father's Day. We took Anna to the local rec center pool for the first time - she loved it! She splashed around in the shallow end (as the pictures show), and she also loved swimming around with Jimmy and I in the deep end. She kicked her little legs and put her face in the water and smiled the whole time. Do I see swim team in her future?!?! I was calling her my little guppy the rest of the day.
You see the open mouth in all these pictures? You know what that is? Pure glee. Anna spent the whole time in the water shrieking her happy shriek. She got lots of smiles from other pool-goers.
What a great weekend celebrating summer and the great dad Jimmy is to Anna!
