Beginning of Summer!!

This marks the first official week of summer!!  My friend Debbie and I took the kids, plus 1 to the animal park on Tuesday.  It was such a great day!  There were hardly any people there, the sun didn't come out until noon, and the kids did awesome.  

 How cute are these three???  They all got along so well throughout the day.

Robert's coworker's wife found this book and gave it to us.  This is what I call Annie all the time - Annie Bananie!  It was our first chapter book together and I was happy with how well Annie was able to pay attention to the story with very limited pictures.  It was a cute little story and didn't take us much time to get through it, but now she wants to read chapter books.  I just started to read Flat Stanley to the kids.  That is such a weird book by the way.  Anyhow, Annie is actually looking at the words as I read because she will pick out words that she recognizes, especially when we were reading Annie Banana - her name was all over that book!  I am hoping to instill a love of reading with my kids!  Now, I just need to find a first good book of the summer.

Another set of stitches

Logan decided to join the club and get stitches of his own.  He busted his chin open at preschool playing basketball a couple of weeks ago.  It was almost exactly 2 weeks after Annie got hers.  He got 6 stitches in the chin and was the bravest ninja! He laid so still on the table getting shots and then getting stitches.  He also did very well when the doctor had to take them out.  

Preschool Promotion!!

Logan and Annabelle had their preschool promotion last week.  It was very cute and nice and short.  They sang some songs, said their alpha-friends (letter sounds), spelled their names and received their promotion certificates.  It was hard to get them to stand still long enough afterwards to get photos.  Still can't believe that I will have two kids in Kindergarten in August!!
