I can hardly believe it is the end of June! Our summer is slipping away and will be gone before I know it and I will be sending Caden to kindergarten and the girls to preschool two days a week.
Since my last post, Caden has had a whole season of t-ball. He did so great and we were all so proud to watch him experience baseball for the first time. He wanted to run after EVERY hit ball, and had 100 times the running power of any kid on the team! That was a bit of a problem when he was playing pitcher and would run out to the outfield to go get the ball and would get to it before the outfielders would. We were very proud of his gung ho spirit! I would much rather have a kid that ran after every ball then stood there and did nothing like most kids did. He was very alert and in ready position.
Right now we are just trying to keep as cool as we can because it is over 100 degrees this week! Caden has been at Science Camp every day this week and it has been an awesome experience and we look forward to next summer!
For Father's Day, Caden, Greg and I went to the waterpark in Galveston- Schlitterbaun and were there about 5 hours and had a BLAST! We can't wait for the girls to get a bit older and we can take them too. Caden could ride almost all of the water slide rides since he was 42 inches. One of the highlights was body surfing! All three of us took our turns and did pretty well for our first time. Earlier this week I was out in the sun too long and got sun poisoning... not fun.
The girls are learning to say more words and we can have actual conversations with them. Harper is the most understandable and she reminds me of Caden how she speaks so well. Addison understands what you are saying, but sometimes it is hard to understand what she is saying. Emery as usual is right in the middle.
We entered the milestone of potty training about a month ago. They wear panties when they are home, but I still put them in pull-ups when we go out in public because I don't want to worry about accidents yet. I feel like I spend half of my day in the bathroom with the girls and will be happy when I am out of this phase of time.
Well, that is the June update. In July we are going to Steamboat, Colorado to escape the Houston heat for a week. In August we are going to the Bahamas to build sandcastles with the kids and try to relax. We cannot wait for our summer vacations!
