Hey loves. How is your summer going? We have been home from vacation for a few days. Suitcases have been unpacked, laundry washed, and everything put away. I feel like so much has happened, new routines, and fun things going on. Let's do a quick life lately update beyond vacation.
Ella
- Ella played trumpet for the past year and decided it wasn't for her. She now wants to play flute. We returned the trumpet and rented a flute. She had her first private lesson yesterday. So far she is liking it.
- Ella had a playdate and sleepover the day after we got home from vacation. No pausing to relax it was straight onto summer fun.
- On vacation Ella had all the real smiles from ear to ear. She is getting to the age of not wanting to do stuff as a family (not liking her siblings) but this trip you could tell she really enjoyed herself and was awesome with her siblings.
Austin
- Austin started Title 1 summer school yesterday. He missed the first week while we were on vacation. The goal is to give him a little extra bit of school to help with his reading and we will continue to work with him throughout the summer
- Austin started his summer speech therapy. He goes once a week for 30 minutes for 6 weeks to continue working on his speech.
- Austin's end of the year field trip was to the zoo. I got to chaperone. It ended up being a lot of fun. I loved seeing him interact with his friends.
Anna
- Anna is still asking every day to go to school. It is sad that I have to tell her no. I know one day this will change.
- Anna did awesome on vacation with using the potty. She only had one accident while she was napping, but otherwise did great.
Random:
- On our road trip Ella and Austin played this find and seek card game a lot.
- I bought these new sandals for vacation. They were so comfortable to walk around in.
- Our dishwasher sprang a leak while we were on vacation. (Thankful for our house sitter who cleaned up the mess and turned off the water supply.) Temporarily I will be hand washing. and we needed a dish drying rack. I am loving this one.
- We signed up for a CSA produce every other week this summer through a local organic farm. We pick up on Saturday mornings and you never know what you are going to get. Last time we got eggs, bok choy, broccolini, salad and a few other things. This makes me have to meal plan and grocery shop differently to use the fresh produce first.
Thank you for stopping by!!!!! If you are new here,
Feel free to follow along.
XOXO
