So many accomplishments!

Wow!  Summer has started and that means our crazy schedule has begun!

Last week was Bug's first week of swim lessons ever!  He was a trooper with four days in a row - he was AWESOME the first two days....so happy, loved to be in the water.  The last two days were a little bit colder, so he was a bit fussy, but he hung in there and had fun with his teacher, Miss Emma.  We have swim lessons all summer, so hopefully he'll be a pro by the end!  The first week he was the only kiddo signed up, so he got a private lesson instead of doing the mommy and me class that we anticipated.  I'm curious to see if he will be the only one again for this week.

Peanut did her first week of summer swim lessons last week too.  She missed one of the four days for gymnastics (which will happen most of the summer, but we knew that going in), but did a good job for the other three days.  We really need to work on putting her face in the water and I think she will be ready to pass the level she's in pretty quickly.  It's just a matter of how long it takes her to get comfortable going under the water.  We'll see I guess.

Speaking of gymnastics, Peanut was invited to the shooting stars class, which is the advanced gymnastics class for kids ages 3 and 4.  We are so proud!  They basically work on the same stuff as the other class, but are good listeners and direction followers, and have a slightly better grasp of the basic gymnastics elements (beginning cartwheel, forward roll, etc).  Way to go Peanut, we love you!  No matter what sport you choose to play, or what activities you choose to be involved in, we will support you 100%.  Follow your dreams and give it everything you've got <3.

Peanut is doing so well with her letters and letter sounds for school.  She can't wait to start Preschool and I'm certain she'll do great.  We might have a rough transition with being away from home and without family, but she's going to rock Preschool academically.  So very proud of our smarty pants!

Buggy is getting more teeth, walking like crazy, crawling up the stairs, babbling all over, and causing all sorts of chaos in our home, but he is the sweetest, most loving little boy ever.  He gives tons of hugs and kisses and cuddles, and is the happiest little guy.  He loves to eat and is constantly asking for food.  His favorite food is bananas and his favorite toys are balls and dishes and dolls.  His laugh is contagious.
