Happy 2nd Birthday, JOBY!





Joby turned two on July 20. Justin was able to get away from school at a reasonable hour (4:00), so we went to a community pool in Edmond (about 20 minutes from our house). This pool has slides, rock climbing wall in the water, kiddie area, sprinklers, and lots of people. Joby was slow to warm up to the water, but mostly enjoyed jumping in to catch a water fish. The picture is of Joby and Justin having a snack, while I change my clothes to go eat dinner.

Before we left NC, we had a party for Joby with our parents. My mom, Kim, made the baseball cake, which Joby didn't eat, but was very delicious. Thanks, Mom! He was very excited to see his Thomas the Train backpack filled with lots of goodies, like cars, books, and snacks. Thank you, Gammie! It came in very handy on the plane ride out. Grandma & Grandpa Olsen gave Joby some books and his first puzzle, which also came in very handy on the plane ride out. Thank you, Grandma & Grandpa!

The neighborhood pool sounded like a fun thing to do. Did you climb the rocks? Did you guys ever buy a big wheel for Joby for his birthday? I wish that we could have found one when we were there so that you didn't have to be bothered to do it. When you get one, could you send a picture to see how he likes it? Mom
