Busy summer days....




We have been enjoying the last part of our summer (where does the time go anyway?!!!!) but keeping very busy too! The girls have completed swim lessons recently....Allie is now ready for Level 4 next year...woohoo!.....Lauren completed her last year of preschool classes...yeah!...and Katie and Mama made it thru the Mom & Tot program with flying colors....oh yeah! : ) We all had a good time and were able to enjoy two weeks of nice weather and great mornings started off in the pool for our lessons! : ) Let's see....what else have we been up to??? Well, Jason decided we needed a bigger "baby pool" so we are now the proud owners of a 10 foot wide and three foot deep inflated pool in the backyard. It's just about perfect for now. We have bigger dreams for someday in the future....but for now, this one is wonderful! : )

What else is new.....the start of school is quickly approaching and with that comes the preparations for Lauren to start kindergarten...besides that meaning school shopping for fun stuff, that also unfortunately meant that she had to get her shots for school.....they were "not fun at all" (her words!) but she was great and is now very proud of her accomplishment! Allie has been to several of her friends' summer birthday parties and Lauren has also had a few opportunities for some play dates with friends. Another big event at our house recently has been the moving of Lauren and Katelyn into a room together, Katie getting out of her crib and on to sleeping in a big girl bed with her sister and Allison now being able to enjoy having her own room! Auntie Amy & Uncle Jim offered to watch the girlies (all three!) for us for a few days so we decided to surprise the girls and while they were gone, we switched their rooms out and repainted and redecorated them as a total surprise! They couldn't believe it when they got home and our hard work got alot of compliments and thank yous! Here are a few pics to enjoy....off to swim in the pool tonight with the family before calling it a night....hope you are enjoying your summer as much as we are! : )
