To Uncle Tim...


David would like you to know that he has been practicing his bull fighting skills. Every few days David wants to "gull fight like Tin." I believe that he may be ready for a rematch when we see you for Jenica's wedding. Thanks again for showing him so much around the farm!

Baptism

This past Sunday the Farnham clan officially became members of the Church of the Good Shepherd. David was baptized, or committed to God by Kyle and I (a.k.a. baby dedication for all you non-Methodists). We're happy to be a part of our new church!

Children's Museum

Thanks to Mammy for taking us to Seminole's Jasmine Moran Children's Museum on Saturday. David absolutely loved all the vehicles he could climb in and drive. He also enjoyed the train ride and the pirate ship! We'll definitely be taking him back!

Happy Birthday!

We recently had a party for David's 3rd birthday. His aunts, uncles, grandparents, and great-grandparents came over to the house for cake, ice cream, and presents. David really enjoyed the activities.

We started the day by giving David our present to him (a bathtub pirate set). This meant a rare morning bath so that he could play with his new toys. I took him to the bathtub to show David how they worked, and when I turned around he already had his pants and underwear off!

We met my parents at our favorite Guatemalan restaurant, Cafe Antigua. After David's nap people started to arrive, and the party began. It was our first time to throw a birthday party, and we really had a good time.

Until next time,
Kyle

Let's go to the pool!!!

Well... what is a summer without a little time at the pool? We decided to sign David up for some pre-school swimming lessons at the Mustang pool. David started off in the beginner's class because he was too shy to put his face in the water on the first day. It worked out for the best because he was in a class with just one other girl; they both learned really fast (floating on their backs and bellies, blowing bubbles, submerging their entire bodies, and kicking.)
And like a good parent, we practiced what he learned in class in our little pool at home. (Is it too much to ask for parents to do this with schoolwork?!? Oh well, don't let me get on my soapbox.)
David really enjoyed the frog water slide in the main area of the pool and the toys/rings that his teacher would throw out for them to collect. David has enjoyed his time in the water, and before we knew it, he will be swimming laps and breaking records.
