Summer

We have been doing somethings this past summer and I, Sharifa, am so sorry that I haven't posted a lot. Because I haven't posted for a few weeks we have a lot of pictures to post. We were able to go up to Idaho one weekend in July to spend some time with the McClaskey family at a reunion. That would be my aunts, uncles, and cousins. We really had lots of fun with my sister and her kids, plus all of my cousins' kids too. After the reunion the kids and I stayed at my parents house for the following week and enjoyed the fun that we had. We got to experience Daisy's first hair cut and she did pretty well, if I do say so myself. I came home to go out on a date with Steve to see Batman The Dark Knight Rises premiere for free!!!! It's was so awesome!! Then we were able to spend some time at Steve's parents house and had some fun with our nephew/cousin Beckett. He is such a cute little guy and we brought Ethan's old Buzz Lightyear swimming suit and it looked so cute on him. I hope you will stay and look at all the pictures and please feel free to make comments on the cute/funny pictures!

 Daisy enjoying a nap with the soft lamb. So very peaceful.

 Start of Daisy's very first haircut!

 She is getting a little scared, but she did pretty well for her first haircut.

 Ethan doing good for his second haircut at a salon.

 He was sort of used to it by now. He was funny at home cause he didn't want to mess up his nice hair duo.

 Daisy going to go swimming! 

Ethan and Daisy enjoying the pool and warm weather.

Steve thinks we should hang this picture on the wall. What do you think?

 

I really love this picture, but Steve thinks her head looks to big for her body. What do you think?

  We really love this picture. It seems like she is saying, "Are we done yet? If you're going to keep torturing me, here is what you get~~!!"
