We had to cancel to the Minneapolis trip because of the virus, but we still wanted to get away from home. I found a place at a "resort" in Ottawa, IL. It had a pool and access to a river- and even better - the Farahs came as well!

You had such a great time with your cousins!

Day 1 - Hike Day-
We visited Starved Rock park, saw a waterfall, and sand stone.

Day 2- Boat Day
You had so fun - but you didn jet ski and we made you get on the tube, you cried the entire time -  I was surprised!

Day 3- Resort Day
Lesley had friends visit and you has so much fun with the Teresa's little girl.

 Movie night - 

Day 4- City Day
We saw some public art, ate lunch and ice cream out - fun times in a small city!

Then you insited on getting matching dresses for your cousin - thank goodness for Walmart clearance -

It was a perfect - Covid vaca!

Summer of TN Waterfalls

 Most (all) weekends we have nothing to do; so we started visiting TN waterfalls! We all got hiking shoes - I guess we are hikers now. :) It's been fun and I love how exploratory you are.

4th Birthday

Milestones:
There's a trend- 3rd child
- get breakfast by yourself
- turn on tv by yourself
- take shower/turn on by yourself
- get completely dressed by yourself
- make nutella/pb sandwich by yourself
*We are going to try and tackle swimming and bike riding this summer.

Favorite food:
Refried beans, edamame, tortilla chips, any cheese, and blueberries

Favorite activity:
Swimming and dress up. You can't have enough dresses, heels, make up- anything super girlie.
Then on the other side- you seem to be the most sporty- you have gone on runs with me, almost running an entire mile!!

Favorite show:
Anything Carter is watching, which is probably inappropriate. You like "No Assembly Required" and "Ninja Warrior". You refuse to watch anything that has cartoons. Recently, you really enjoyed watching Hulk with Daddy! And then pointed out at a park that the moss on the rock was "Hulk green". Goodness...

Quarantined life also had you pick up some phrases from us and your older siblings - like
"Oh my freakin god."
"Dang it!"
"What the freak"
"Seriously..." (with attitude)
Sorry, dude.

Love you lots buggie, bug-a-boo, Junie, Junebug, Juniper, and JB!
