Picture and Video Update

Another week has come and gone in HOT St. Louis.  We've taken the kids to the zoo twice lately.  Since it's so close we can get there when the doors first open and stay there for a few hours before we start to melt.  They LOVE it there and we're so thankful that it's free! 

For those of you wondering about Haune, he's been doing well with his classes... just adjusting to a rigerous study schedule.  He sure puts in long and hard hours as he is breathing, eating, and sleeping Greek.  He is 1/3 of the way done with class, but who's counting?  He'll have a mid-term coming up next week, so many more hours of studying are ahead for him!

Early last Saturday morning, we thought the kids needed to get out of the apartment for a little bit so we took them to another neighborhood park which was absolutely beautiful and fun for little and big kids alike (see below).  Although we're unimpressed with St. Louis' severe heat/humidity, we are quite impressed with its' impressive and established park system.

I neglected to upload this video in my last post of my happy little guy:

Someone sure had fun...

... just a kid at heart!

Happy as can be!


Julia's been spending a lot of time playing princess dress up.

Our sweet neighbor girl, Sasha, likes princesses too.

She dressed herself this time.  (She's wearing 4 different skirts!)

The sting rays at the Zoo were a huge hit --they come up to you and glide right under your hand.

For my bird girl.
