Can you select the nap skipper in this picture?
















If you selected Soren, you are correct!  This was the dinner scene at our house, but it wasn't the food, because everybody else cleaned their plate, so it's all Soren.

(Karla is writing in Blue.  Thanks Jared for updating the blog tonight after capturing such a great picture of Soren asleep at the table!)  Well, I just got home from work and found out that this nap skipper and his brother were awake until 10 tonight and eventually had to be separated because they kept each other awake.  I guess a little power nap at the dinner table only fueled the fire.  


Unfortunately, it seems as if Soren won't be taking that afternoon nap nearly as long as Einar did.  I shouldn't be too surprised though since Einar still sleeps in until 10am (like he did this morning) and Soren is ready to go most mornings at 7am sharp.  Completely different kids.

Over the past couple of days there has also been a ferry ride to Lummi Island, running through the sprinklers, and other fun activities.


Ferry rides can start off as a bus ride.  On Tuesday we rode the number 50 bus as far as it would take us to Gooseberry Point.  Then we hopped on the little ferry that would take us to Lummi Island.

Einar playing in the sand.

























Wet after a little sprinkler action across the street.



















R.J, Gabe, and Einar doing some gardening work.  I paid these gardeners with fresh peanut butter cookies.  I think perhaps they got the best end of this deal since I still will have to go out there and finish up the job =).  At least I got to eat some of the cookies too!

























Einar and Soren helping Jared with his homework.  Jared actually had  a physics homework assignment where he had to figure out stuff based on a 35lb kid and a 50lb kid swinging.  That is exactly what the boys weigh right now so he took them to the park and took pictures of them swinging and include the pictures in his project.  I hope he gets extra credit for including accurate models!
