Summer seems a little daunting with 4 boys 5 and under. It's not like we can just go hang out at the pool (the 5 of us), since really no one swims yet and C is a loose cannon so to speak. So we have had a week of VBS which D, D, and C all got to go to. They seem to enjoy it. They learned about the times of Jesus around the time of his death on the cross. They got to go to a "marketplace" and carve soap, make instruments, see small animals (ie goats, bunnies, etc), make pottery (also known as playdoh if you are 5 or younger), and so on.
Next week the 3 bigs are taking swimming lessons at a friends house nearby. I'm hoping for a reality check for #3 and confidence for D & D. They are quite excited!
Then it will be off to Grandma and Papa's for a week. Grandma will fly down and drive up with us and daddy will fly up to drive back with us. We are really excited about that trip. We will get to practice swimming in their pool!! Among other things we love about Grandma's.
We have playdates most weeks with some new friends and some old friends. We plan on hanging out in our yard with our new "slip-n-slide", playing with our pool and water table (if mommy can tolerate the mud pies and the mess we somehow bring in the house), a new little climbing playset from our friends, trips to the library, splash pad, children's museum and who knows where or what else!! It will be fun! We will post pictures as time goes on!
