Way Behind
Let's just say things have been busy, and it will continue to be that way until summer is over! Let's see - what has happened in the last month. The highlights are Arianna finished Tball and she had a great time. We saw definite improvement of her skills. She thinks that she wants to continue next year. We have her signed up for youth association soccer for the fall. She is continueing her swimming and is working on improving her distance swimming.
She finished school on the 19th. She actually missed the last day of school because her great grandma made an unplanned visit to Michael's parents house. She has seen her in almost 2 years, so we made a quick trip over so the kids could visit great grandma.
This week she is attending a summer camp. It is a great camp! they pick her up between 8 and 9 and drop her off between 4 and 5. They have have 2 scheduled activities a day and lunch at a park. The activities she has had so far is playing at a park, swimming, movie, bowling, water park. She is having a great time and the cost of the camp is great. On Sunday she is having a special treat - that is going to a Jonas Brothers concert.
Ethan is doing well. Learning more things every day. He knows his letters and the sounds that they make, and he is counting above ten. The problem area for him is potty training. He is not interested in it. He is starting to get more interested, but he is not where I would like him to be. At least now he is more aware of when he goes potty - we just need him to want to go sit on the potty before he goes. We will keep trying.
July is going to be pretty crazy for us. 4th of july we are heading to Michael's parents house. Michael likes to get out of town on the weekends for relaxation and his parent's house is nice and quiet. Then the weekend of the 11th is Michael's birthday. I am taking Michael to a farm dinner near Salem and the kids will stay with Gaga and Papa for the night. Then the next weekend we head to montana for a week. We are excited for out trip there to see my family. We are planning on having a picnic with my aunts and uncles that I have not seen in a while. We are also plannning on spending a day or 2 in yellowstone on our way back. Michael is looking forward to bringing home flathead cherries!
Then we get home, Michael's sister should hopefully be here with her daughters. They moved to Guam in October. If they are here, we will see them and Arianna will stay with grandma for a week so that she can spend time with her cousins. His sister is planning on being here until like teh 10th of August. Then at the end of August we are going camping at Cape Lookout near Tillamook. This is the weekend right before Arianna will start 1st grade. I am guessing that this summer is going to fly by!
I will try and upload pictures soon. We have been bad - many are still on the camera :(.
