Kyle has been on leave since Monday, and doesn't go back to work until July 9th. We are enjoying our time together and sleeping in (or I attempt to sleep in). We had wanted to go back to the states, but due to Gunnar's passport not getting here in time we are stuck. There is plenty to do and I keep bugging Kyle to go traveling around here, but he is still holding out that we will get Gunnar's passport this week and be able to head to the states. So in the meantime, we have been hanging out and Kyle has been doing career planning. If the passport isn't here by tomorrow, I think we will start making our plans for a trip to Italy and Switzerland. Technically Gunnar needs a passport to go there, but the borders are open, so we can just keep our fingers crossed that there are no random checks!

The other day Gunnar got Kyle really good. I didn't think to take a picture until I had already started to help clean him up. I warned him, not to jostle the baby as he had just ate...hmm, someone didn't listen. His face was covered, and he wouldn't hold still for the picture.


Oma got her first swimming lesson session with Kyle today. Poor doggy!


Suesse is a really good swimmer, but she doesn't really like it. Today, Kyle took her way out there. She wasn't thrilled.


Here is Kyle and the doggies. I am pretty sure Oma had hypothermia, she was one sad puppy after her swimming lessons.


Here is a picture of Gunnar and I out at the lake. We didn't brave the freezing water. Soon after the picture we both got all bundled up!
