Crayola Factory

I always have these big plans at the beginning of the summer...day trips and such. Before I know it, summer is close to an end. We never made it to the Aquarium or the Philly Zoo, but we did squeeze in a trip to the Crayola Factory. Now I have been there before and have been "underwhelmed", but I decided to give it another try since the kids, especially the boys, are so into drawing right now. They had a blast. Thea drove there...turnpike and highway driving. Very nerve wracking for me but she did well. We're headed to Ocean City NJ tomorrow for a week. Then its back to school time, YEAH! Charlie is starting kindergarten. I'm not quite prepared for that. He's been a really good buddy the past 5 years. I hate to give him up...:(

Sea Isle City NJ

Kriebel and Wertz cousins Sea Isle August 2007

Went to Sea Isle to stay with my sister Joan and her family. We were supposed to stay for just 3 days...ended up being 5 days. Thea was in Atlantic City with her friend the same week and she called us to say she missed us so Dave picked her up in AC on Wednesday and she joined us. It was a lot of fun!!! Thanks Joan and Eric! We're headed to Ocean City on August 25th for our annual week at the shore...just us Kriebels.

Growing like a weed

Even though she is still a peanut (just 13.6 lbs) she is rolling all over the floor, grabbing everything, getting ready to sit. I just want her to slow down! Its not fair that they grow so fast!
