Eeks...I'll do a better job with the blog!

Wow! Last one was May 3! Sorry about that. I'll take time this weekend to post some pictures. Maybe even some video clips! Where to start...

Ian:
Ian has a few more days of school left before he moves on to 3rd grade. Holy cow! His last day of 2nd grade is June 10. His reading has improved a lot this year and the homework can be a challenge at times. It's a good lesson to him that he has to work at it. He is very into technology and will try to get his time with it. He prefers the websites he is able to do at school, so that's good. Yes, we closely monitor it!

He enjoys being outside whether it's shooting hoops, playing baseball or soccer, running around, going fishing or helping with yard work. Definitely active!

With the help of his Grandpop...he is learning Psalm 23 for Sunday School. He knows the first 6 lines!

He had a great baseball season and we were so fortunate to have another great coach and team family. We love our #4!

He had his 8 year well check visit and he is completely off the charts for height and about 80th for weight. He is one tall and slender kid!

Gavin:
He graduated from pre-school last week and I have no clue where the year went with him. He loves to sing songs that he learned at school. He adored his teachers, Miss Cathy and Miss Sherene, and loved Miss Amy for Music and Miss Brenda for Bible time.

He also enjoys being outside and doing all the fun things that Ian does. He is definitely into sports, which we love!

He played soccer this spring on Saturdays and enjoyed that, but really liked spending time at West Raleigh watching Ian play ball. His time will come this Fall when he becomes a Riverdog!

He enjoyed spending Tuesday afternoons this year with his close buddy, Connor. I can't think Kim enough for the commitment!!!

We've had some medical situations with family members in the last month. Dad is being tended to here with his health situation and it's great having him stay with us. We've been keeping busy and the boys love having their Grandpop go places with them!

My grandmother is in a rehab facility after her broken hip situation. I believe she'll be moving to a different one in the upcoming week for a bit of a change. The boys have done a great job going with us for visits and pushing her around in the wheelchair.

The big news around here is that Ian made the Cal Ripken 7U All Star Team with West Raleigh. So, we'll be heavy into baseball starting June 1 and ending July 10. Pretty much each day with tournaments on the weekends in NC. Ian is very excited and we're fortunate he has this opportunity! I'm going to do the blog for the team and will post the address later.
