How They're Doing...





Just realized I am really behind in updating this blog! The summer has been very busy so far with Vacation Bible School preparation and week, vacation with family, Dan's new job and I don't really remember what else! We have put a lot of miles on the car is all I know! We had a fun weekend in Pennsylvania with Martha, Dan and Justin... but I left the card for my camera at home and didn't get to take any pictures!! Both kids got sick recently and that wasn't too fun...thankfully it didn't last long. As you can see from these recent pics, they're happy and healthy now.

Carrie is talking up a storm!! She makes her own sentences which are anywhere from 3 to 9 words long. She climbs everything and most recently her crib. She is moving to a toddler bed now. I get to assemble that today and kiss my crib days good-bye. I'm a little sad about that, but I'm happy to see her developing and growing. She is STILL just 22 1/2 pounds. She eats well, but seems to burn everything that comes in. Skinny and long. I'm jealous :)

Drew is getting ready for first grade. He had to get new frames for his glasses yesterday since Carrie has done a number on his glasses one time too many and they finally snapped. He is so smart and has been working on addition, subtraction, multiplication, reading comprehension and more over the summer during our eye patch exercises. I'm excited to get back to a routine... but it will be hard to see him gone everyday. He and Carrie are still crazy, but getting along a little better I think.

Have a happy rest of your summer!
