What We Have Been Up To Lately

It's been a little crazy around here with all of the end of the school year party and activities. Noah and Nathan finished up last week.  Luckily we had their party a week early since several of their friends were out of town for the last week.  Unfortunately, the strep throat bug hit  our house and Noah missed his last week of school.  Poor guy even missed water day.  Abby and Noah were sick for most of the week last week with fevers and vomiting. (Yuck!)  Nathan got sick later in the week but didn't have strep.  I think he  just had a little bug.   Abby missed her ballet dress rehearsal.  She went back to school at the end of the week.  She still missed her field trip because it was outside and I didn't think she was quite up to it. 

We're still working on potty training.  They will go for days with no accidents and then the next day I might have  10 pair of wet underwear by the end of the day.  They seem to do better at home when they are in their routine.  We have at least got over our public restroom phobia.  I can actually take them somewhere without a pull up.  Hopefully this summer we will be completely potty trained.  I mean it's only been a 5 month process!  :) 

Abby has a big week.  She had her luau yesterday but it rained and was cold.  The kids still ate and had a good time.  She will be having her kindergarten graduation ceremony this week and her class will be singing a song.  Personally, I would just like to leave her in kindergarten for a few years.  She loves it!  I always worry so much about the transition of the next year.  Hopefully, we will get another great teacher.

I'm gearing up for the big summer.  I am hoping for the first time that I will be able to manage all 3 kids at the pool by myself.  I've bought some books so we can have a little  "school" time each day.  We are going to do the summer reading  program at the library.  All 3 kids love going to the library.  I love that it is small and 2 minutes from our house.  The librarians are very sweet there and seem to like my wild crew.  We have swimming lessons planned.  Hopefully, we can squeeze in lots of playtime with cousins and friends.  Personally, I cannot wait for the beach!!!!!  A book, a breeze and my toes in the sand!!!
