New Experiences

This week has been full of new experiences for all of us! I'm going to start with Morgan and work my way down the list.


Morgan-
She attended "camp" for the first time. When I say camp I mean, I dropped her off at 10am and was back to pick her up at noon. She loved it! It was a dance camp, and at the end of this week all the kids put on a little performance for the parents.







Olivia-
Has been using the big girl potty with more frequency. She also is telling us when she has to go/gone. To all of you out there reading this who don't have kids you won't understand just how big of a deal this is. Having two children in dippers in a major pain, not to mention dippers are not cheep.





Issac-
He was able to sit up in the shopping cart on our latest trip to Costco. I did have to put a receiving blanket around him, but he loved it! I don't think that I have ever see him smile more at the store!



Me-
I held my first garage sale with a friend this weekend. It was a lot of work, but it was fun to get rid of things that I no longer need. It was also fun to spend time chatting with a girl friend.

Luke-
Ran his first 10k last weekend. I know it wasn't this week, but it's his most current new experience. He really enjoyed the run and is already thinking of what he needs to do to shave time off his mile, so that he can do his next race at a faster pace.

Picture Update

Isaac is feeling better, and back to his normal happy self! He is working on sitting up, he also is not doing so well with the nap thing. I think he just has to much he wants to see during the day!
Morgan and I had a rough start to our week, she was having a very hard time listening. But we have worked through this, she has been listening and obeying wonderfully the last 2 days! She had so much fun at the zoo yesterday, and today she enjoyed playing with friends at Out of This World Pizza. She is also very excited that we are going to Rose Festival with the Ihde's tomorrow night!
Olivia, she continues to be a handful, but in a good way. She is so full of energy and wants to do everything that Morgan is doing. She loves to climb, this week it's been onto the kitchen table. She also had fun at the zoo yesterday, she really liked the animals. This picture is her new smile. If you ask Olivia to smile this is what you will get, I know it's priceless!
I have been enjoying having no agenda during the week, but am looking forward to the start of summer activities. I have been continuing to run 3 days a week, and am finding that I'm enjoying the time alone. My sister Jennie will be in town next week, I'm very excited to see her and my niece Abigale!
Lastly Luke has been working so hard around the house! Our dinning room is finally finished and he has made some really good progress in the master bath. But I think he has made the most progress with our yard! He has been doing such a great job at balancing everything that needs to get done around the house.

On a side note we had family pictures taken last weekend. The photographer was wonderful and I can hardly wait to see our pictures.
