I can't believe summer is almost over!! But we have enjoyed every minute of it as far as going to the beach, celebrating 2 birthdays, playing with cousins, Vacation Bible School, spending lazy days eating popsicles, and swimming in Mama Tom's pool. And now we/I are ready for fall, cooler weather, watching the leaves change, football games, Halloween, etc...sorry...I love fall.
As for the kiddies : this year as Olivia enters kindergarden, we have decided that since our future is so uncertain along with the area that we live in, that it would be best for me to home school Olivia. And surprisingly, the process is easier than I thought. I am very excited to be able to teach Olivia and use non-traditional/creative teaching methods as well. Olivia is happy about "Mama" being her teacher, but a bit unsure as well. So I hope that I can change her uncertainty and excite her about learning from me at home. I know that she will miss being with her friends (especially Ansley) but we will keep in touch and plan play dates as often as we can.
Lucas is as active as ever and getting so tall! His speech continues to get clearer and I love having a conversation with him now. We are still working on potty training and God bless him, we're considering therapy for the pacifier. Hahhahha! He only gets it when he's sleeping but it will be MIA very soon. If he's not playing with his gazillion supply of cars and trucks, then he and Olivia are playing in their room. At least temporarily and then the crying and complaining starts. Hahhahaha! But the playing "together" just started this summer so it's fun to watch them play house or pretend Lucas' crib is a castle. The latest hilarious story about the kids was when they were playing in their bedroom together and Olivia brings Lucas out for me to see. She had put one of her dress-up bridal costumes on Lucas. So to shock and scare daddy, we added the matching dress up shoes and purse. Hahahha! And of coarse, there was no camera in sight....
Have a safe and fun Labor Day weekend and I will have pictures up soon!
