Cub Scout Campout

 We had the perfect weather last weekend (upper 70s and sunny) and we made good use of it with the Cub Scout Campout.  Jack and Jason spent the night but the little ones and I joined them during the day.  While at home, Wyatt had fun playing with Jack's tae-kwan-do pads.
 He was so quiet that I had to go in search of him.
 And this is what I found.
 Too cute!
 Showing off his hi-ya moves!!
 One of the cub scout events was making a rocket and then launching them.
This is Jack's rocket - covered in Angry Birds.
 The little ones high-tailed it to the tent.
 They couldn't stay out of it.
 Guess that means it's time to take all the boys camping.

 Waiting to launch the rocket.
 Ethan amused himself with my phone.
 Here's Jack getting ready to launch.
 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ... blastoff.
 Wyatt had so much fun following Jack around.
 A rare mommy photo - I love snuggling with these boys of mine.
 We had a lot of down time after the rocket launch so Jack spent lots of it by the water, throwing rocks.
Wyatt and Daddy fished.

 Jack was soon joined by his pal Bryce.
 And then Wyatt joined in - always wanting to be with the big kids.
 Ethan didn't want to be left out either and we couldn't keep him out of the middle of the volleyball court.  No one seemed to mind him out there and he never got hit by the ball.  He had so much fun.
It was a great weekend and we all came home with sunburns.

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

Busy week

It's been a busy week with little things here and there, which is getting me ready for the busy summer ahead of us with gymnastics, swimming and all Ethan's therapies. Whew, I need a break from just thinking about it. We did have a nice walk down to our community playground this afternoon. Ethan couldn't stop laughing on the swings and the slide (he couldn't get enough of the slide) and Jack made a little friend! Great afternoon. Speaking of therapies, Ethan starts his occupational therapy next week and I'm so excited. We got the therapy notes back from his evaluation and, while I'm not positive on how I'm reading it, the scores say from poor to very poor. We have been very lucky that Ethan hasn't had any medical issues and so far he seems to be doing well with responding to his therapies, so I really want to make sure he has the best of everything. Today has just made me a little blue thinking about Ethan not being 100% of what other kids are and ...

Last Day in Prague

Our last full day in Prague. We had a late night parting the night before and a very early morning excursion but this was the one I was excited for! We did a similar excursion in Italy and loved it too. This was an awesome city bike tour to the Vysehrad Castle. We stopped for photo ops along the way - including here along the Charles River. But it's all fun and games until someone gets stopped by the Polizia! Before we left on our trip I was told to make sure you stay away from the police, so I was surprised to come up the big steep hill to see Jason stopped by one. I guess our tour guides didn't get the permit to ride in the park (too close to kids and a school). We had all just come up a big steep hill and were separated from the front of our group. Jason stopped to wait for me and the rest of the group to make sure we knew where to go. We had three guides, on leading, one in the middle who pulled away from Jason, and then one at the back. ...
