Beginning of Summer

Summer has started. Today we have already played in the playroom, taken naps, and played outside. Christopher is watching his iPad and Caleb is hitting balls off the tee and running around. I was on Facebook for the millionth time and thought maybe I should update the blog- that thing I used to be so good at keeping up with. Maybe that should be my summer goal. :)

Alot has been happening since my last blog update, but since most of you follow us on Facebook you already know. I am going to do my best to share pictures and not go on and on.

The first set of pictures are from our beach vacation over Spring Break. We went to Cape San Blas in Florida and had an amazing time. Nothing to do but hang out on the beach. There are places about 20-30 minutes away with things to do, but we didn't go to any of them. The beach was really all we were looking for. Christopher had a great time. He made friends with kids 2 houses down and they played almost every day. Caleb enjoyed his time to. By the end of the week, he seemed to have adjusted to the sand. He wore tennis shoes most of the time down there. He had no sand issues last year when we went.


















The next set of pictures are from baseball. The last time I posted, the baseball season had just started. Well, the Cubs went all the way to the championship and won! Matt was the pitcher for the team and by the end of the season Christopher had made his way to the second base position. He was quite proud of himself. Matt is also an assistant coach for the 5U All-Star team. Christopher is playing second base for them. He is getting so confident in his ability to stop grounders- I am hoping he backhands one and throws a runner out before the season ends. He is getting closer. 









And now just some randoms...

Sweaty mess after the playground

We hatched chicks at my school so Christopher got to hold them. 

First sleepover at a friend's house! 

Popsicles on the porch. 

Caleb before he went to sleep for his nap today.

Christopher sang karaoke for the first time. He chose God Bless America. 

Poor Caleb- so tired at dinner.

Caleb is obsessed with puppies- especially Puppy Dog Pals on Disney.

Christopher and his baseball buddy heading to the Braves game. 


In other news, Christopher graduated from pre-K in May and starts Kindergarten at St. Catherine's in the fall. You would think I would have pictures of that graduation ceremony.... 

I think that's life caught up in a nutshell. 
Happy Summer!
