Summer has began!!!

Let the summer time fun begin! I'm so looking forward to all the fun the summer brings. Playing outside, trips to the cabin, boating, time at the beach, going to the park, playing with lots of friends, vacation bible school, soccer/t-ball camp, planting flowers, pulling weeds, riding bikes, water guns, oh, it will all be so much fun!!

Farm School Picnic

Sydney loved going to preschool at the Children's Farm Preschool this year. It is so up her alley; being outside so much and being able to help take care of the animals. Whenever I've asked her what her favorite thing to do at farm is, she always says the same thing; riding the horses. Personally, I think holding the baby kittens is a very close second. She made some great friends in the class! She is sad she can't go there all summer. I decided not to do the summer camps they offer this year, and try some different activities.

Happy 6th Jacob!

Really, Jacob you are 6! Wow! Over the past year, Jake has grown and matured a lot. He is amazing with Regan, douting on her really. He is always checking on her to make sure she is happy, and has what she needs. Jake is always wondering what Papa is doing next door. Jacob is really excited to put his new fishing pole to work this summer! Grandpa Doug, we'll be up to visit soon, and you can teach him the ropes again.

Swimmers....

Year 2 of Level 1 swim classes has come to a close. I shouldn't say "year" maybe more like session. Sydney doesn't like going because she doesn't want to get her face wet....She is the front of the line in the picture below, Jake is happily smiling in the middle...

Jacob loves it, and has improved a lot and will even put his face under water (as long as he has goggles on) The teachers did a "train" to end the session, it was cute. The kids loved it!!

Jake is ready for more swimming classes, Sydney needs a break.

Babies sleeping

This is how Regan insists on going to bed lately. She seems to notice if she is missing a baby, which is even funnier....I snapped this shot after I tucked her in, I just couldn't resist...

Cousin Fun

My dad is back in MN today, so two of my sisters came over to visit and see my Dad and let the kids play. I didn't get any pictures of my nephew, Andrew. But he was in the mix as well. We all had so much fun and enjoyed meeting Donna. Times like today make me look so forward to summertime fun!

Well Checks

The girls had their well check doctor visits last week ( a little late) Both girls are doing great! And are very healthy. Regan has finally caught up on the growth charts!

Here are the stats:

Sydney (4yrs3mo): Height 41", 50%. Weight 36 lbs., 50%. And she can see and hear just fine....phew! At her 3 year appt, she was 50% percentile as well...steady eddy.

Regan (22months): Height 34", 75%!!!!! Weight 25.5 lbs., 50%

Huge improvement here, at her last dr. visit, in October (15mo), Regan was only in the 25% percentile. (the appt. before that only 5% percentile) Regan normally eats as much as her big brother at most meals, so you would figure she would be catching up one of these days...geez!
