Hello Summer! Hello Beach!

Ian and Gavin enjoyed their first full week of summer vacation. My dad watched them. Ms. Jackson, a teacher at Ian's school, spent a day with them. They had two days with Cailean. They signed up at the library for the Summer Reading Program. There is no rushing in the morning. They are staying up a little later at night. Summer sure is here!

To help with childcare and to give them interaction with kids their own age, we signed them up for different summer camps. It's an adjustment to my schedule now that I'm at work 5 days a week. I know...suck it up. But, it's still an adjustment! The majority of the camps will be Y Camps (3 different ones for Ian...1 for Gavin), NCSU sports camps (2 for Ian, 1 for Gavin), VBS (evening one and a daytime one). Plus, Camp Mimi! Can't forget about that one!!

Ian lost another tooth, so I think that made it tooth #6. Not quite sure where it went...down the drain or in his belly! Ian reminds me a lot of my brother. His reading is more enjoyable if it's sports related. He can tell you the highlights of the sports news. Sports. Sports. Sports. He is very tall and is a bottomless pit!

Gavin is still into rhyming. You hear a lot of "pain and rain. They rhyme. pop and stop. They rhyme." He makes his bed and is very proud of it. He has the devilish laugh when using supersoakers.

Although I went to 75% status at work...I am still able to go on vacation next week with the boys that has been booked for a few months now. I'll leave you with the view from the balcony that we'll be enjoying in a few days. Looking forward to a few nights with a great friend and her boys!
