So today Allison wanted to take off her vest and swim. First she had been practicing with it on, having Derek stand away from her and she would stick her head in and go. Then when it was off she stuck her head in the water and off she went! I was pretty shocked, but earlier in the day I did make a comment to Derek that it seemed like she was really close to being able to swim without her vest. Guess I was right. Anyway, Derek went and got the camera for us. Here she is. Also she starts swimming lessons tomorrow....
Our photo blog to keep our family and friends up to date with our lives, travels, and Alli's milestones.

Lots of pictures!
This is Allison and her teacher on her last day of preschool (the 3 year old class).
Allison is working hard on her Father's Day gift for Derek.
The final product. It's a pen/pencil holder for his desk. The little white circles each have a letter to spell out "DAD".
Here's Derek posing with it after he opened it on Father's day.
Silliness in Las Vegas. We were just goofing around taking a family Self-portrait.
Allison, Haley (trying to get her turn sucking on the sucker), and AJ watching a DVD in our hotel room.
Got their attention - for a second that is.
We had a camp out in our back yard on July 3rd. Here is Derek roasting marshmallows, on the grill. I guess we should invest in a firepit?
S'mores!!
Mommy and Alli in the tent. I wish I could say we made it all night out there, but my air mattress went flat and Alli woke up at 2am and asked if we could go inside. So Derek was the only one to make it all night, and that is only because he was too lazy to come inside.
Happy Birthday America!! Here is what it would look like if America had a child.
Giving Grandma CoCo a kiss while hanging out at the 4th of July celebration (at my old high school!!). Few more hours until the fireworks start...
Allison going down the bouncy slide at the fireworks celebration. No Fear!

Wow! She did such a good job swimming! I took Kara's floaties off at Mom and Dad's the other day, she thought I was trying to kill her!
