Our last full month of summer was a blast. Both boys went to “camp” at our church and we all went to bible school. Zye graduated to the “big kid” room, Jill was a craft teacher and Tace got to play in the nursery. It was a lot of fun. We played with our friends, played on the slip ‘n’ slide, went to the science museum and celebrated the 4th. Tace turned 21 months and Zye turned 5 1/2, which to him is HUGE. We bought school supplies last week for Zye, who starts Kindergarten on August 20th. Jill & Zac are a little sad but also excited for him. Zye is just SUPER excited to go to “big school.” Today, this last day of July, we have started potty training Tace. We started at 8am and it is now 5pm. Several accidents later we have actually made it in the potty 5 times. WOOHOO! I think Tace may be swimming in juice by now but he is doing great. He even stayed dry during nap time. Hopefully by next month’s post we are 100% daytime potty trained.

School is out and our fun summer has begun. Now it is actually half over. The last week in May we visited the Great Grandmas and then in June Zye’s whirlwind summer of activities began. He had basketball camp, football camp, safety town, t-ball, the library reading program and lots of fun playing with friends at the pool on the slip & slide and just outside riding bikes. Tace was happy to tag along to everything and be a “big boy” too. We are enjoying the not too hot weather and having a break from school for a little while. In July both boys will start their Summer Camp at MDO two days a week and will be going to their babysitter’s house 1 day a week so Mommy can work. We hope everyone else is having as much fun as we are this summer.
