- Taking care of the garden and enjoying cherry tomatoes and cucumbers (and lamenting the passage of the unfruitful broccoli and heirloom tomatoes)
- Playing on the new playset and "treehouse" (a plastic playhouse recycled from our neighbors' boys)
- Playing indoors A LOT (that is, avoiding the heat!) - like at the new Children's Museum in Short Pump (not a museum at all but a nice and cool indoor play area)
- Taking swimming lessons (Alex)
- Turning 2 (Claire)
- Playing soccer (Alex - through Richmond Kickers at his daycare)
