Summer is almost here...

Only three more days of school then Davis will be a 1st grader and Sydni a 2nd grader... they will both be out of school for 11 weeks!! What are we going to do for 11 weeks??? This has been the family question lately. So here is the list so far... Sydni is reading the Cul-de-sac Kids book series, 6 books at a time. Once she finishes a set, she will get another. We are glad that she LOVES to read. We have "homework" books ready to go with a few science experiments. Crafts of course! Trips to the zoo. Hoping a kids movie plays at the Drive-In again. Grandma Cookie is coming to visit. Sydni, Davis, & Andrew will be spending some time (seperately) with Grandpa & Grandma in South Dakota... Davis will get to go fishing with Grandpa!
Lincoln is 3 months old, sleeping through the night, smiling a lot, and even "talking" too! I'm not so sure that babies his age get bored, but it sure seems like he doesn't like to be alone nor does he enjoy quiet... must be a 4th child thing.

I take tummy time seriously... I don't think I really like it

This last month has included lots of family time... via sickness that made it's rounds, kept kids home from school and dad home from work. Mom got the worst of it...3 weeks worth. The kids have been enjoying the nice weather that allows them to play outside. Speaking of weather... we have had a couple opportunities to practice our tornado precautions.

Getting settled for the movie!

We made our first trip of the season to the Drive-In to see Monsters vs. Aliens and The Hannah Montana movie.

Lincoln went to the zoo for the first time when we got a members sneek peek of the new tiger exhibit. We think he really enjoyed it, he loves being outside.

So how will you be spending your summer?
