First of all - I transitioned to daycare in June. It took me a couple of weeks to adjust, but I love going to school and playing with all of my new friends. There are 4 others in my classroom and they are all girls - lucky me. My teacher is very nice and we get to play outside every day. I only cry sometimes in the morning when Mommy leaves for work, but I am always happy when she picks me up at the end of her work day.
Secondly - BIG NEWS - according to Grandpa Steve - I got my first hair cut. I sat still in the chair for the lady and she gave me a lollipop! I look so grown up and my curls are all gone.
Another big deal - I started and completed swim lessons. Miss Lydia was my instructor and I wasn't too excited about them at first, but by the end I enjoyed swimming with her. They ended the first week of July and I can swim and float now. I love the water and I especially love floating.
Over the past couple of months I have added quite a few words to my vocabulary and I love to repeat and imitate Mommy. We spend as much time outside as we can - either walking with Oliver or jogging. I love to dance to all kinds of music and Mommy just bought me my first laptop.
And finally - we took a trip to Atlanta over the 4th of July weekend. I had a great time hanging out with my cousins, aunts, uncles, and Grandpa Steve. I hope everybody is having a great summer.
Love, The Mav

One morning Mommy was cooking breakfast and she caught me up on the ottoman reading my book - I've been climbing everywhere since

In Atlanta at the pool - it rained every single day, but the sun came out for a few hours on our last day there, so we took advantage
