How time is flying! I can't believe that summer is just about over, but we have had so much fun. It's amazing how much Hunter has grown, and what an integrated part of our family he is. He is so laid back and relaxed, and just goes with the flow. And now that he is finally on a much more regular sleep/nap schedule we all seem to have slipped into a better grove.
Owen has really learned to LOVE swimming, and has gone from totally afraid to jumping in (with
swimmies on). It is truly amazing what a few weeks of swim lessons has done for Owen. Hunter also is in swim lessons, and loves splashing and playing. I hope he never develops the fear that Owen has spent this summer overcoming. Owen also had his first day of the school year. Camp was a lot of fun, but he was very excited for school to start and have all his new supplies, back pack, lunch box (both
Phinneas &
Ferb) and a few new t-shirts. He is so proud of himself, and we are so proud with how much he has accomplished in the last few weeks alone!
Hunter went from just able to sit up, to fully mobile. He's not quite crawling, but that doesn't stop him, he can sit and turn in circles, put weight on his hands and legs like he's about to crawl, army crawl, and even starting to pull himself up to standing... although he's quite the wobbly mess on his own. But it's amazing how quickly he has is losing his
babiness. He's also the best "eater" in our entire family. He will eat and try anything. Nothing stops him, doesn't matter that he doesn't have any teeth, he manages to chew and swallow with no problem. There are too many foods to mention that he eats, but he's moved away from a lot of baby food, and trying more table foods. Right off of Mommy's plate. Weird that my baby eats grown up food, but my 3.5 yr old still won't eat much variety at all... As they say each boy is different!
We had a wonderful first family vacation in Ocean City. We stayed at the Marriott Courtyard on 15
th street. I was very concerned about all being in the same room, and worried about sleeping, but it ended up being a non-issue. The kids were so tired by the time they went to sleep each night they probably could have slept standing up. It was such a nice trip, and we have so many fun adventures, bike riding on the boardwalk, playing on the beach, mini-golf - many rounds, dining out at restaurants!, swimming in the pool, riding the rides, so much more. Hard to believe we were only there 5 days, we did
SOOO much!
We are very blessed as a family, and truly enjoying every minute together.
