Man, I come up with original titles don't I?
The last few weeks have been crazy!
-Addi graduated from pre-school. The program was super cute and of course she was a beautiful little graduate.
-Mason finished Kindergarten. It was such a great year for him. On his Kindergarten exit test he scored a 96%. I'm so glad that he ended up at that school. We aren't even worried a bit about sending both he and Addi there next year. It will be nice to have them both at the same school.
-I had another ultrasound and baby Schenk is definitely a boy. We have been buying items here and there to get ready for our new addition and I got all registered at Target. We need darn near everything now since we got rid of everything after Addi out grew it. But I am having so much fun checking out all the new stuff. There is so much out there that I will not be able to live without. I don't know how we managed without a "Bumbo", a baby sling, a papsan bouncy seat and Soothie bottles. But I can tell you that we won't be living without them with this baby. Mason and Addi get so excited by every little
thing we purchase and just love to lean on my belly and talk to their little brother. They have both felt him move and think it's so cool!
-Mason lost another tooth. It's one of the top front ones. The other one is loose too and so very crooked. I call it his "bubba tooth". hahaha! I crack myself up! Pretty soon he is going to have 3 missing teeth. When he looked at himself in the mirror with the missing teeth he said, "Oh my heck, I look like a big boy now."
-After only 12+ hours of work from Chris and 3 friends, we got our playground up. We had to get a dump truck of topsoil to fill in all the holes in our yard. Then the fellas spent all day Memorial Day outside in the terrible heat working to get it together. Mason and Addi are thrilled to have their own park to play at. Addi inaugarated it by taking a header out of the swing the 2nd day it was up. We have some mulching to do around it but we are so excited that we have our own outdoor
entertainment now.
-The parks and rec department in our town rocks. We have a park with a Splash Pad. It's a bunch of fun sprinkler type things for the kids to play in. We have already visited twice this year and plan to spend lots more time there. You just can't beat free fun that tires the kids out too.
-I did 3 photo shoots in the last week. Things have taken off for my little business. I am so excited and am having so much fun.
That's it for now. I hope everyone is enjoying their summer!
We went to an arcade/mini golf/go kart place on Saturday. We had a ton of fun even though it was a balmy 95 degrees plus humidity. Addi was too hot and Mason was hungry so we had some issues with grouchiness, but Chris and I had lots of fun. We ignored the whining of our kidlets and just played and laughed. Chris totally cracked me up during the go karts. He had to take each kid seperately since I can't go. I loved watching him go and have fun and actually laugh. It's so good for him and I love to see it.
