Summer is here and where have I been?

Summer is here in this beautiful state called Michigan. At least for a few days. We have been so busy with stuff lately. I finished up the MOPS year at the beginning of May. I was responsible for crafts once a month and I am glad to be finished with that. It was fun but also time consuming. We also finished AWANA for the year last week. Again, it was fun being the cubbie director but I am glad to be done for at least a few months.

Mike has been working a lot of hours lately. He is also starting to fly r/c planes and has been doing that a lot lately. He will usually take Emmalee and Eoin with him so they can watch and it gives me a few hours to do something by myself. Last night I went grocery shopping while he was flying. It is amazing how much faster things go when I don't have two little blessings following me around.

Speaking of blessings, they are both doing great. They both earned their Cubbie book awards last week and were so proud of themselves. They have been playing outside a lot. They love to ride their bikes. Now if we can just lose the training wheels soon. They have both been sleeping late in the mornings. It is probably a good thing we are going to homeschool because they are both night owls and like to sleep in.

Emmalee is having to wear a patch because she has a weak eye. The doctor said it should only be for the summer. Eoin is growing bigger and stronger. He loves to play and pretend to growl and scare things off. He is still my baby and always will be. I love to watch their knowledge grow. They are always asking questions. Eoin is starting to do 100 piece puzzles. I think he might be an engineer in the future. He likes to see how things work and is very mechanical. He is also very persistent and will work on something until he gets it right. I am so proud of both of them. They are very sweet kids.
