Catch Up #5 - The Rest of July!

 We're going to get caught up really quick...in just a few more posts I hope!
This one is the rest of July.  We unpacked, we enjoyed the hot summer sun in the backyard, we settled in to our new home.
 Brushing teeth in the kid's bathroom!
 Our huge new BBQ!
 One of the perks of our neighbourhood - The Ice Cream truck makes regular passes!
The girls know that The Entertainer tune or It's A Small World means the Ice Cream Man is close!
 Our south facing backyard gets all of the sun and no shade...sometimes a girl needs a parasol.
 Cara showing off her jump roping skills.
 We celebrated Daddy's Birthday with a cheesecake.
 Cara mastered the swinging rings at our playground in the first week!
 Breakfast with Grampa Howie.
 One night after eating supper outside a dragonfly landed on Cara's face! 
 Our first backyard firepit fire!
 Smores for all!
 We found this little guy in our yard - at first we thought it was an injured bird but no! It is a baby robin who hasn't learned to fly yet.  He hung around for a couple of days then was gone.
 We have been to Calaway many times - Gwen is tall enough for more rides this year.
 We even went with Freya once!
 The girls spend many days cooling off in the pool.
 We went to one of the city wading pools and cooled off too.
 Cara and her friend from kindergarten Kyla had a great time.
 There were many hot days so we used the pool a lot.
 Gwen did some face painting with markers.
 We painted Gwen bedroom - super pink!
 Ice Cream truck came by again.
 Cara mastered the fireman pole.
 Gwen slept in her room - pretty in pink.
And we went to the zoo with Leah and Sidney!

July was fun - next up August!!
