SUMMER FUN........AND RASPBERRIES










Happy summer, Everyone!! Wow....June flew by!! We have been busy with lots of summer fun!! As of yesterday, Isaac's baseball season came to an end. He did very well!! As you can tell by the video, he can HIT that ball!! He has also completed sixth grade, and is officially a 7th grader. I know, I can't believe it either!!

Joey made it to Indiana safely, without any problems, on June 21st. He was extremely excited to meet his new little brother. So far, Joey is the only one that can consistently make Sammy laugh. Joey will be in Indiana until July 30th. He is looking forward to spending a lot more time with his Dad.

Matthew has been very busy!! Unfortunately, he has been busy at work, and not in the "Man Cave" with his ham radio equipment. Did you notice the picture of the tower? I believe Matthew's words were "it is a sight of beauty!" He gets all choked up about it. Let's see how many more contacts he can make with this antenna set-up.

And last but not least, Sammy. Sammy is growing hand over fist. He weighs in at 15.2# and is 24 inches long. For those of you that are keeping track, that means he has gained 9# and has grown 4 1/2 inches in three months. I haven't even started feeding him Miracle Grow yet, I promise!! He is hitting that fun stage of smiling, cooing, the beginnings of laughter, and don't forget the raspberries. He's a pro at that one!! I am enjoying every minute!!

Well, I believe that wraps up June at the Andrade house! I look forward to updating you next month! Please, take care, keep in touch, and remember that we love and miss all of you!!

Love,
The Andrade Family

P.S. I am sorry about the lighting in the Sammy video, but it was almost bedtime.
