July 2014

We've been enjoying a gorgeous London summer!  Although we're all kind of wondering how we're going to manage in the California heat this summer.  London has been having a heat wave and we have all been extremely hot in the 80 degree weather.  I think we're going to have a tough time getting used to the 90 to 100 degree temperatures in California.  Maybe this means we have finally acclimated to the London weather :)

Eating lunch and feeding the ducks at the Serpentine in Hyde Park.

Trying on big brother's tennis gear.

My boys :)

Cooking at Purple Dragon.

Trent turned six months old this month.

Ask any ex pat living in London, the absolute worst part about living here is the washer/dryers (usually combined).  It takes forever to do a load of laundry and even after running it for most of the day, we still end up having to hang clothes on the drying rack to finish drying them.  But, at least someone likes the drying rack :)  Much to my dismay, Trent is already completely mobile.  He positioned himself under the drying rack all on his own.  He's not crawling yet (but I'm guessing that is coming very soon), but he maneuvers himself around and then rolls to where he wants to go :)

My lunch date at the Natural History Museum.  I took Nathan to see the Woolly Mammoth exhibit.  We made it through about 1/3 of the exhibit and then he saw a giant saber tooth tiger and a scary bear-like thing on its hind legs looking ready to attack and he decided he did not want to go any further.  He insisted we turn back around and go out through the entrance.  At least we made it far enough to see Lyuba, the preserved baby woolly mammoth that they recently found!

Nathan picked out Trent's outfit and shoes!


Saying goodbye to my friend, Emily, who is moving back to the States next month.  We went to the Mad Hatter Afternoon Tea at the Sanderson Hotel.

Enjoying a sunny day in Hyde Park.  Chris and Nathan rented a pedal boat.

Trent and I relaxed in the shade and tried to keep cool!

After his boat ride, Nathan was ready to toss around the frisbee.

Enjoying a babyccino at breakfast.


Nathan and his best friends at football.

Working out with Daddy.


Beating the heat.
