Oldies but Goodies and New Beach Shots






















I have no idea where the summer went, but it is already early August and we are finally out of school. Summer school was over last week. So far, we've been to the beach, gone out to dinner, and a carnival. Still on the summer bucket list is seeing the Smurfs. I've spent a great deal of time doing house hold things that I don't have time for during the school year. Not glamorous, but needed to be done. Olivia and Aliette spend most of the day swimming in the pool and we've have a great July. So far, August has been a little rainy, but I'm sure there are still some good pool days left. Olivia loved art camp and VBS, while Aliette enjoyed getting her nails painted by the sitter. Aliette is doing great. She hasn't been sick since switching from a large daycare center to a private home. She loves her sitter and her speech is coming along. She has such a personality that make it so easy to love her.

Long overdo update















Happy 4th of July! As I wait for the burgers and dogs to finish cooking, I thought I'd post some pictures. Olivia had her gymnastics and dance recital in June, plus she turned 6! We went to Chuck E. Cheese and she had an awesome time. Aliette continues to thrive in the home daycare and her speech is coming along. Favorite pasttime is using the potty. Olivia is in art camp this summer while I teach. Anyone need a sculture or pot holder, just let me know. We went to the circus and swim most days at my parents. I'm hoping to get to both PA and VA this summer, but it isn't easy mobilizing a family of three.

Finally Spring: Daffadil Festival



















We miss you Nae Nae, my photos weren't like yours but I tried. Here are a few photos from our wonderful outing. Olivia went on rides, Aliette soaked up the sun and enjoyed every minute of her first snow cone. Aliette is doing great at her new daycare. She is having surgery on 18th. Hoping she will continue to stay well. Olivia is getting ready for her dance and gymnastics recitals. I'm looking forward to summer school and lounging by the pool.

South School Scholar





Olivia has loved every minute of kindergarten. Like many of her classmates her favorite part of her day is music and pe, but she has learned to read and write really well. I'm so proud of her. She entered the science fair and won a metal. Grandpa stopped by to say hello. Olivia was also chosen to welcome the parents to the Kindergarten concert. She memorized her lines. Such an amazing child. Can't wait to see what comes next.
