Summer Of Swimming

Another fun summer with Chenoa's besty. Chenoa loves her swimming on her swim team. She mostly loves all of the qaulity time with her best friend Tara. I love hanging at the gym daily. Tara's mom Chris and I get to work out and hang while our girls do the same. You can't go wrong with that!

Kylee's Birthday Party

June was so overwhelming with the move and the start of summer. Kylee's playgroup was kind enough to allow us to turn a playgroup day into a birthday party. It was so last minute it was nice to have everyone be up for it. Kylee was so excited to have her party. We chose a water park with a playground for maximum fun!

We Bought It

Well we made the big plunge and committed to our first home. It is a bit scary when you are actually signing the papers. Thank goodness our agent met us there and even helped watch the kiddos while we signed. We are so happy we bought this house and are busy but enjoying every minute!

Mango 1st Park Trip

It seemed like we waited for so long. Mango couldn't go to the park until he had all his shots. The first day we took Mango to the dog park he was the only small dog. He ran so fast I had a hard time keeping up with him with my camera!

Busy Summer

Well I have been so busy I haven't had much of a chance to blog. We are all moved into our awesome house. Chenoa had a great swim season and now things are becomeing a bit quiet before Chenoa starts 2nd grade in a couple of days. I have missed some important events. Because of this it may take me a while to catch up.

Before we moved into our house. We took the girls on a trip to the beach. We had such a wonderful time. I can't wait to go again!

Summer at the Gym

Well the thought of moving towns is a little hard to comprehend. Since the move is at least a month away. I was thinking changing gym's may be an easy transition if we start in the early summer. But with swim team season starting now. I have been in a toss up. I would love to start Chenoa in a team in our new town. Maybe she could meet some new friends in the area. However, after going through the options and waiting for the last possible minute to make a final decision. We decided to wait until the end of the summer to switch teams and gyms. Through the move and all the paper work it may be easier to do the extra 10 minute drive to the gym after we are moved in. It's better to get settled in and then make another move.

Our summer will be full of many exciting adventures. Chenoa will be swimming five days a week. I have my classes planned out. Marc has his routine. And Kylee heads to the gym about 4 days a week. They teach her songs, the ABC’s, Sports, and she comes home with projects like these.

The girls and I are so happy when we head home from the gym. I am sure the extra couple of months won't hurt anything:)

Potty on the Potty

Kylee and I as usual headed over to the bathroom so she could sit on her potty. We brought books so maybe she would sit for a while. I promised her I would read her Clifford books to her today so we started with those. After we finished the Clifford books Kylee wanted more. She ran to her room to get her Dora books. When she sat down she opened her book. Before we could start reading she looked at me and said "uh oh." Then she looked down to see herself going potty. Kylee looked concerned like this might be bad. Then I screamed with joy, I gave her a high five followed by a hug and a cupcake. I am pretty sure she understands now that I want her to go potty on the potty. We are potty training from here on out.
